Roman rule over Palestine continues.
Eliezer ben Hyrcanus and Joshua ben Hananiah by the end of the first century and the beginning of the second have become the leading teachers of their generation and are to have a profound influence on the greatest scholars of the next generation.
Gamaliel II of Jabneh, head of the Sanhedrin at Jabneh, who in 95 had petitioned Emperor Domitian to rescind Claudius's edict expelling the Jews from Rome, has organized the synagogue service and standardized the Jewish calendar, assigning fixed dates to festivals.
He also excludes sectarians from the synagogues.
The final canon of the Hebrew Bible is fixed about 100 at a meeting of rabbis held in Jabneh.
