    • The Arch of Titus in Rome

      The Arch of Titus in Rome commemorates the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 C.E.

      Titus ordered that the temple be preserved; but a soldier torched it, and the place was torn down stone by stone​—precisely as Jesus had predicted. According to Josephus, some 1,100,000 Jews and proselytes died, the majority from starvation and pestilence, and another 97,000 were taken prisoner. Many were sent to Rome as slaves. If you visit Rome today, you can tour the famous Colosseum, which was finished by Titus after the campaign in Judea. You can also see the Arch of Titus, which commemorates the conquest of Jerusalem.
