It is written that he was a former chief magistrate of Tiberias and he is described as an 'audacious commando' that led the raid against the Romans. Read more about the battle on the Jesus Boat website.
ANCIENT BOAT

I found it interesting due to the fact that the 'Son of Joseph' became a civil magistrate late in life. In England on the land of Joseph he became what is known as a JP that stands for 'Justice of the Peace'. When he was on the planet I never did ask the RAB why he became a magistrate. Although I was powerfully aware how important justice was too him. It pleased him so much - to be able to help the local ethnic communities to get on in life.
It also pleased him to be in a position whereby he could be in the position; whereby he could sway the bench to ensure that a rightful decision was made on behalf of those that were brought before him. He was well respected in the local community, for everything he did to help it to prosper.
A civil magistrate is really meant to be a mediator between the people and the police-CPS. CPS always ask for the toughest sentence; and do their utmost to sway the bench to deliver what CPS ask for. Hence, a righteous mediator between the people and the 'brute force', is essential to ensure that justice is given to the people. Indeed - properly - it is about keeping the peace in the land.
Jesus is also known to be a mediator - and you may remember the story of Solomon and how he mediated between the two women over the same baby. Jesus also predicted that when the 'Queen of the South' came that she would have more wisdom than Solomon. That wisdom would come with insight.
Also interesting that although the 'Son of Joseph' had some Jewish heritage - he never went to Israel during his life. Although he did go to Russia and France due to his union work.
Over a million Russian Jewish people now live and work in Israel; and you can be sure that Putin will defend his people if he has to. I do not recommend that Obama push the right hand of Putin. Otherwise he may not like the response that he gets. Rome and its Church cannot continue to treat the Jewish people the way that it has down the ages. Enough really is enough! Enough of Rome - enough of the Church - enough of Islam as well.
The name Jesus ben Shafat could indicate that he was the son of a judge; and the senior magistrate that sits in the middle on the bench in a civil court; also delivers the decision of the magistrates. Its fascinating to me how things work out and how everything unfolds. As Prophet Isaiah predicted - wonders will never cease.
Now when the LORD first gave me the word 'Shafat' neither the Israeli's or the biblical scholars mentioned Jesus ben Shafat. Maybe it was my spelling of it.
Jesus ben Shafat was both a magistrate and a commando. So was the 'Son of Joseph'. He was enlisted in the British military at the end WW2 when he was old enough to join. Early in life in the military - late in life a magistrate. He wasn't in the army for very long - as soon he was able to leave he married. He married at age 20 - so he couldn't have been in the army for long at all. Yours truly was born the following year.
A couple of weeks ago I had a dream of the RAB - it was wonderful to see him again so happy.

Here is some translations.
Now I share with you ELOKIM and the Jewish Rabbi's view of it. Its about the vessel that imparts the 'strict judgement'.
