AnswerOne would expect that the very people who witnessed the miracles of Jesus and later those of the apostles, saw the crucifixion of Jesus, and knew about his resurrection, would have converted in very large numbers to Christianity. In fact, Acts of the Apostles reports thousands or multitudes of Jews converting whenever the apostle Peter performed a miracle. Yet, the Jews remained faithful to their ancient religion and continued to await the promised Messiah. By the time of Emperor Constantine, Palestine was still largely a non-Christian region.Either the many miracles did not really happen, or the Jews were unimpressed by them and the message of the apostles.

Yes. Jesus himself was actually Jewish. Christianity was invented by a Roman emperor called Constantine, not Jesus or his apostles, who were Jewish. N.B. - The term "Christian" was first used a couple of centuries earlier than Constantine, estimated to have been around A.D. 43, in Antioch, according to Acts 11:26. It was not invented by Constantine.

They often established tight-knit communities that provided mutual support, fostering a strong sense of identity and shared purpose. Additionally, many Jews sought refuge in professions or areas where they could thrive economically and socially, despite facing discrimination. Their ability to preserve traditions and adapt to changing circumstances allowed them to maintain their identity in the face of adversity.
According to the Acts of the Apostles, during the early time frame of the Christian church in Jerusalem, Stephen was one of seven men, probably Hellenistic Jews, chosen to attend to the distribution of aid to elderly widows within the church community. (This role came to be known as deacon.) Stephen was also recognized for his gifts as an evangelist, preaching the teachings of Jesus to the people of Jerusalem, including members of the place of the Hellenistic synagogues.
