	Uri's page-Ancient & Judaean coins
		Alexander the Great annexed Judaea into the Macedonian Kingdom in 332 B.C. Upon his death general Ptolemy was appointed governor of the region and ruled under the name of the Macedonian Kingdom until 305 B.C., when he declared himself king and established the Ptolemaic Kingdom.
		Judaea came under the control of the Seleukid kingdom in 198 B.C. When the Seleukids suffered a major defeat at the hands of the Romans in 188 B.C., their power in the region diminished and the Jewish people began to exert some independence, culminating in the establishment of the Hasmonaean dynasty later in the century.
		It thus became a symbol of fertility and abundance and by extension a symbol of the rich province of Judaea itself.

	The Roman Procurators of Judaea A.D. 6 to c. 70
		It is easier to study Judaea than most of the other provinces because of a good collection of primary sources, specifically the Bible and the works of Flavius Josephus, a Jew born in A.D. 37 who would become a Roman citizen and supporter of their government.

		Judaea was the birthplace of Christianity and the home of Judaism, two religious trends very different from their pagan rulers.

	Philologos \| Sketches of Jewish Social Life \| Chapter 5
		Judaea was, so to speak, their Campo Santo, with the Temple in the midst of it, as the symbol and prophecy of Israel's resurrection.
		Judaea proper was the only place where the Shechinah had dwelt, the land where Jehovah had caused His temple to be reared, the seat of the Sanhedrim, the place where alone learning and real piety were cultivated.
		Judaea was "grain, Galilee straw, and beyond Jordan chaff." To be a Judaean was to be "an Hebrew of the Hebrews." It has already been stated what reproach the Rabbis attached to Galilee in regard to its language, manners, and neglect of regular study.

	Palestine: History
		The ethnarchy became the new province of Judaea, comprising the districts of Judaea, Idumaea, and Samaria, and subordinated to Syria.
		Now Claudius returned Judaea and Samaria to royal rule, partly to reward Herod's grandson Agrippa (Agrippa I, also called Herod Agrippa), to whom Gaius had already assigned the tetrarchies, and partly no doubt as an attempt to rule a difficult province by indirect means more effectively than by direct.
		The comparative good order that Judaea saw under Agrippa I began to break down under the procurators, especially from about 50 CE, partly because of provocative acts by soldiers and misgovernance by some of the governors, partly because of nationalist messianism and terrorist resistance to the restoration of direct Roman rule.
