Why titus marched to jerusalem?

Titus, the Roman general and later emperor, marched to Jerusalem in 70 CE as part of a military campaign to suppress the Jewish rebellion against Roman rule known as the First Jewish-Roman War (66-73 CE). The conflict arose due to widespread discontent with Roman occupation, heavy taxation, and cultural tensions. The siege of Jerusalem was the culmination of the Roman effort to quell the rebellion. Titus led a well-organized Roman army that systematically besieged the city, eventually breaching its defenses. The siege was brutal, and after a long period of conflict, Jerusalem was captured, leading to widespread destruction of the city and the Second Temple, which was a central place of worship for the Jewish people. The fall of Jerusalem and the destruction of the Temple had profound religious and cultural implications for Judaism, leading to significant changes in Jewish practice and identity. Titus was later celebrated for his military success, but the events of the siege and the destruction of Jerusalem also contributed to lasting tensions between Jews and Romans.
