Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The Zealots were nationalists and hated the Roman conquerors. They believed Palestine was God's gift to the Jewish people – so they wanted the Romans out of the country at all costs. The Zealots refused to co-operate with the Romans. They used violence to try and force the Romans out of Palestine.
