Shortly after the war ended in 70, Josephus went to Rome where he was granted Roman citizenship. He took the name “Flavius” from the family name of Vespasian and Titus. In the late 70s he wrote the Jewish War (seven books). (An earlier version of this work, written in Aramaic, was sent to Jews of Mesopotamia to discourage them from revolt.) In the mid-90s he completed the Jewish Antiquities (twenty books). Shortly after 100 C.E. he published his Life (an appendix to Jewish Antiquities) and Against Apion (two books).
