They fought to stem both the First Jewish Revolt (CE 66-70) and the Second Jewish Revolt (the Bar-Kochba rebellion of CE 132-135) against imperial Rome. A legion was the largest division of the Roman army consisting of 4,000�6,000 men divided into ten cohorts supported by light cavalry and lightly armored troops. The Xth Legion left Jerusalem before CE 300.
