Accordingly, Josephus says that many impostors persuaded the people to follow them to the desert, promising them signs and wonders done by the providence of God. (See also Act 21:38). One persuaded the people to go up into the temple, which being set on fire by the Romans, 6,000 perished in the flames. he is in the desert: Mat 3:1; Isa 40:3; Luk 3:2, Luk 3:3; Act 21:38 Matthew 24:27
