LA PROVINCIA ROMANA DI GIUDEA DOPO LA MORTE DI ERODE IL GRANDE: CONFLITTI RELAZIONALI E CONTRASTI DI SISTEMA TRA IL PREFETTO DI SIRIA, I REGNI CLIENTI E IL GRAN SINEDRIO DI GERUSALEMME
THE ROMAN PROVINCE OF JUDEA AFTER THE DEATH OF HEROD THE GREAT: RELATIONAL CONFLICTS AND SYSTEM CONFLICTS BETWEEN THE PREFECT OF SYRIA, THE CLIENT KINGDOMS AND THE GREAT SANHEDRIN OF JERUSALEM

Summary/Abstract: Historians still debate the exact qualification of the province of Judea, especially following the discovery of the well-known inscription concerning Pontius Pilate, which led to a review of many judgments about the titling of the governor of the region, which would not have been that of procurator as was believed until the discovery, but of praefectus. A careful examination of the sources, in particular of Josephus Flavius and Philo Alessandrino, together with the valutation of the interventions adopted in Judea by the legates of Syria, it can only support the idea that the region was not independent, but with particular reference to military issues, was subordinate to Syria. In this context, although with limited powers following the Roman domination, the more or less independent fringes in the client kingdoms and the authority of the Grand Sanhedrin of Jerusalem survive in Judea.
