Egyptian (prophet)

The Egyptian was a messianic Jewish revolt leader. His uprising was quelled by the Roman procurator of Judea, Antonius Felix (ruled 52–60 AD), and the Egyptian fled, while many of his followers were killed and captured, with the remainder managing to flee and hide. Flavius Josephus says in his Jewish War (2.261-262)
