Which year did the end of the Jewish War occur, marking the end of major hostilities in that conflict?

• A. 70 CE
• B. 90 CE
• C. 100 CE
• D. 60 CE

Answer: (A)

The turning point being tested is when the large-scale fighting of the First Jewish–Roman War ended. That moment is 70 CE, when Roman forces breached Jerusalem, destroyed the Second Temple, and effectively brought the main hostilities to a close. While some resistance lingered briefly afterward, the central conflict had already ceased. The other years don’t fit because they occur before this decisive event or long after the war’s main phase.
