Regarding Roman soldiers, the Jewish historian Josephus wrote: “Every soldier is every day exercised, and that with great diligence, as if it were in time of war which is the reason why they bear the fatigue of battles so easily. ”
Mengenai prajurit Romawi, sejarawan Yahudi Yosefus menulis, ” Setiap prajurit dilatih setiap hari, dan dengan sangat keras, seolah - olah memang sedang berperang sehingga mereka tidak gampang lelah dalam pertempuran yang sebenarnya. ”
