Masada does not appear in the Bible. Masada has deep significance for the Jewish nation. It was the site of a historic event in about 73-74AD. At the end of the First Jewish-Roman War, a group of Jews was held under siege on Masada by Roman soldiers. Rather than surrender, the Jews eventually took their own lives.
