Jewish+martyrdom

=Jewish Martyrdom= Jewish martyrdom is not very important in the Jewish faith or at least not as important as Jihad is to Islam.

Masada
The story of Masada is the one of the only times throughout Jewish history when the Jews have a violent fight to protect their beliefs and killing non believers. They use a rock plateau as fortress along the Dead Sea. When the romans approach their fortress during the First Roman War (also known as the Jewish revolt) it caused a mass suicide while the Jews started fighting the Romans to protect their religion. This goes on for a while and even after the Jews faught the Romans to protect what they believe in.

Modern Martyrdom
This martyrdom is so much like Christianity martyrdom, it does not happen very often and when it does it is typically not violent. Christian Martyrdom Jack Gilman
