Wrongful execution
editI cut this from the first paragraph:
- Judah b. Tabbai was accused by Simeon b. Shetach of wrongfully executing a witness for political purposes (namely, to send a message to the opposition Sadducee party). Judah b. Tabbai then resolved to judge only according to Simeon b. Shetach, and spent the rest of his days weeping prostrate over the grave of his victim.[1]
If this was a fully fleshed out article, this would be an important episode. As it is, we aren't told anything about this person except for this. This needs context and it doesn't belong in the first paragraph. --Yael Tziyona (talk) 17:55, 1 May 2018 (UTC)

Use of Sources
editThis article uses both Rabbinic and Karaitic sources more or less straightforwardly. Such sources are not historical documents and should not be used to assert what Judah ben Tabbai really did in the 1st century BCE. CharlesMartel (talk) 15:22, 7 May 2018 (UTC)CharlesMartel
