The Jewish revolts against the Romans were about 2000 years ago, not 1600 year ago.
Read the article. This was a later Jewish revolt, one that is less known than 70 AD and Bar-Kochba.
The interesting thing is that many think Jews were kicked out of the land in 70 AD.
but no, Jerusalem was destroyed, the end of the world for most Jews, but they remained in the countryside.
After the Bar kochba (the moniker of the rebellion’s leader who was called “Don of the star”=”Bar Kochkba” ehich means messiah. Yes, it eas a messianic uprising and Simon Bar Kochkba was supposed by the Rabbinate to be the messiah), Jews wer kivked out of the cities but remained in the countryside.
They even helped the Iranians conquer Judea in 612 AD creating a very brief Jewish state.
Jews have never completely left the land of Israel
