In Midrash Icha Rabbah 1, Nero Caesar is not briefly mentioned as someone who ruled Rome during the Great Revolt and died in the midst of the revolt, while Vespasian was busy with his attempts to conquer Jerusalem, and thus Rabban Yochanan ben Zakkai 's prophecy that Vespasian would become emperor was fulfilled: "After three days, Vespasian went to swim in the Gupna. After he had swum and put on one of his sandals, news came to him that Nero was dead and the king was a son of Rome."
The coin with the image of Emperor Nero is mentioned several times in the Mishnah and in the Tosefta as the "Nironit Rock" or "Nironit" for short.
In addition, there is a sage article in the Babylonian Talmud , which describes a man named Nero Caesar as an envoy of the emperor who reigned at that time, and not as the emperor himself. According to that article, the Roman emperor sent Nero Caesar to conquer Jerusalem following a report from a man named Bar Kamtza , according to which the people of Judah were betraying him. When Nero Caesar arrived in the Land of Israel , he shot arrows to the four winds of heaven to check which place to conquer, and all the arrows eventually landed in Jerusalem . Nero concluded from this that he would win his war against Jerusalem. Later, he saw a boy passing by and asked him to teach him, and the boy quoted to him the verse “And I will take my vengeance on Edom by the hand of my people Israel” ( Ezekiel 25:14 ) . Nero saw this as a prophecy that God would take revenge on him for the conquest of Jerusalem. As a result, Nero fled , converted And one of his descendants was the Tanna Rabbi Meir .
His wife Poppea was presented in the sources as a sympathizer of the Jews, and in the Talmud she was even presented as a matron
