532 CE to 675 CE
The scholarly Jewish communities in Galilee continue with varying fortunes under Constantinople's rule and dominant Christian influence until the Arab-Muslim conquest of 638.
The period includes, however, strong Jewish support of the briefly successful Persian invasion of 610-14.
The Arab caliph, Umar, designates Jerusalem as the third holiest place in Islam, second only to Mecca and Medina.
