Flavius Justus
Edit ProfileCareer
Justus had an older paternal half-brother, Hyrcanus, and a younger brother, Flavius Simonides Agrippa. Jonathon may have been Alexander Jannaeus, the High Priest and Hasmonean ruler who governed Judea from 103 British Columbia-76 British Columbia. Justus’ cognomen was a very common Latin name in the Jewish Catacombs of Rome. Justus was a contemporary of the ruling Flavian dynasty and Nerva–Antonine dynasty of the Roman Empire.
He was alive when Josephus was compiling his historical writings and when his father died about 100.
Unfortunately, little is known on his remaining life.
