Judea mentioned in the opening lines of the "Scroll of Antiochus"
Perhaps it would be worthwhile to mention in this Timeline that the word "Yehud" - יהוד (Aramaic for the country "Judea") is mentioned in the Aramaic Scroll of Antiochus, written, according to Rabbi
Saadia Gaon, by the disciples of the
School of Hillel and the
School of Shammai sometime in the early 1st century
CE. Likewise, the
Mishnah, compiled by Rabbi
Judah the Prince in 189
CE mentions the same country of "Judea" by its Hebrew name, "Yehudah" (Heb. יהודה), and he goes so far as to define its boundaries.
