"The Jewish Wars" is Josephus's first book, written around AD 75-79. It is mainly based on his memories of the Jewish War of Independence (AD 66-73), the memoirs of the Roman army commander Vespasian, and the letters of the Jewish King Agrippa. The original book is divided into seven volumes, covering the various causes that triggered the Jewish war against the Roman regime, the war conditions in Galilee and other areas, the siege and fall of Jerusalem by the Roman army, the end of the war and its consequences. Limited by the times and circumstances, his book contains many fallacies and even forgeries, but overall, its academic and historical value is irreplaceable, and it provides valuable reference materials for future generations to study Jewish history, Roman history, Christian history, etc. During this period.
