Oct 21, 2014  If your Mac running OS X Yosemite needs Java for application compatibility, online banking, or any of the myriad of other reasons, you can manually install one of two versions of Java that are compatible with OS X 10.10, either the latest version of JRE 8, or an older version from Apple which remains compatible with the newest version of OS X. Jun 13, 2015  OS X v10.11 is the last major release of OS X that will support the previously deprecated Java 6 runtime and tools provided by Apple. Applications or features that depend upon Java 6 may not function properly or will not launch when Java 6 is removed. Developers should move to a newer version of Java as provided by Oracle.

I have an older iMac (2011) that I'd like to setup as a Minecraft server for home usage. I won't make this public - it's just for those in my house to be able to play together w/o having to pay for Realms each month.
I'm running the latest OS X (10.11) and have never installed Java on my iMac. My understanding is that you need to have Java in order to run the server software. With Java being a dumpster fire of security risks I want to make sure I only download and install exactly what I need. What do I need?
Wiki article about setting up a server: here.
The article recommends the following link to install Java: Java for OS X 2015-001 installs the legacy Java 6 runtime for OS X 10.11 El Capitan, OS X 10.10 Yosemite, OS X 10.9 Mavericks, OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion, and OS X 10.7 Lion.
Or should I download the latest version (Recommended Version 8 Update 73) of Java from java.com?
I don't want anything in the browser to run ANY Java applet this is solely for running a simple Minecraft server at home... I don't know of Minecraft *requires* the legacy version of Java or not... I guess that would determine which download I would need.
