| | A Revolt The story of Bar Kochba - a hero or a fool?  |
| | Few characters are as enigmatic as Simon Bar Cosiba better known as Shimon bar Kochba. Some call him a hero who, despite the desperate situation, tried to unite the Jewish people and overthrow the oppression of Rome. Others believe he was an egomaniac with almost Messianic illusions of grandeur.
