	There is nothing that historically connects Spartacus with the Jews and Jewish and Christian origins. Spartacus was a Thracian and lived in Italy under Roman rule when Judea was still under the [[Maccabees]] before the [[Roman Period\|Roman conquest]]. However, the similarities with the Maccabean revolt and the fact that 6,000 of his followers were crucified, has made him a character of some interest for [[Second Temple Studies]].		There is nothing that historically connects Spartacus with the Jews and Jewish and Christian origins. Spartacus was a Thracian and lived in Italy under Roman rule when Judea was still under the [[Maccabees]] before the [[Roman Period\|Roman conquest]]. However, the similarities with the Maccabean revolt and the fact that 6,000 of his followers were crucified, has made him a character of some interest for [[Second Temple Studies]].

	Since the 18th century, numerous fictional ~~work~~ praised Spartacus as a freedom fighter and a champion of the oppressed. The unlikely connection between Spartacus and the Jews was made explicit for the first time by [[Arthur Koestler]] in 1939. In [[The Gladiators (1939 Koestler / Simon), novel]] one of Spartacus' companions was a member of the Jewish sect of the Essenes and his egalitarian views shaped the revolt.

	Following this path, [[Howard Fast]], in 1948 author of a celebrated novel on the [[Maccabees]], made in 1951 Spartacus the leader of a multiethnic army. Among his closest followers and friends was also a Jewish gladiator, David, now presented of a sort of "Maccabean" warrior. The two major works of the 1950s, namely, [[Spartaco (Sins of Rome / 1953 Freda), feature film]] and [[Спартак (Spartacus / 1954 Khachaturian), ballet music]], however, did not develop the Jewish theme, drawing inspiration from [[Spartaco (1873 Giovagnoli), novel]].
