The Zealots were a group that was passionate towards the Jewish religion and political freedoms. The group formed a party that was dedicated to removing the Romans from Palestine. It was said that one of Jesus’ disciples Simon was considered a Zealot. The Zealots launched the Palestinian Jews on a Suicidal course, and because of it the Temple was destroyed. Due to the failures of the Zealot attempt to destroy Rome, the armed rebellion and the end-of-the-world predictions was rejected by Judaism.
