I got a question...

The story about the people of Masada and there decision to commit suicide in light of being trapped and facing the Romans. What are you're thoughts on that? Was that the right thing to do? or not and why? How do they know they would have been killed? Maybe they would have only been taken as prisoners and made into slaves? So was that the right thing to do? Was that biblical?
