Who wanted Jesus crucified the Romans or the Jews?

Jesus' followers did not want him to be crucified. Jesus, himself, did not entirely want to be crucified, but he saw the necessity of it and allowed himself to endure the pain for the greater good.


Why did the Nazis call Jews Christ killers?

It was an excuse for the holocaust and it is a misconception. No one killed Christ, he is alive. ________________________________________________________________ Because in the Bible the Jews called for Jesus to be crucified. (Then according to Christianity Jesus died and rose again).


Were the diciples Jewish or were they gentiles?

They were Jews.


What did the Romans do to Jesus?

They crucified him. They were told (by the Jews) that he was a leader of an anti-Roman rebellion. He was called "The King of Jews" - and in the Roman empire, kings were not allowed.


Why were the Jews falsely accused of killing Jesus Christ?

A:The gospels depict Jesus as being sentenced to death by Pontius Pilate, a Roman governor, at the insistence of the Jews. Since the Romans had the power of life and death over their subjects, it was important to the early Christians to emphasise the role of the Jews in the crucifixion of Jesus and to minimise the role of Pontius Pilate. Any tradition that cast doubt on the loyalty of Christians could have been fatal to the emerging religion. Mark's Gospel, the first gospel to be written, shows Pilate offering to release Jesus for the Passover, but the Jews insist that Barabbas be released instead. Matthew makes it plain that Pilate attempted to prevail in saving Jesus and, when that failed, symbolically washed his hands. Luke's Gospel. written next, even has Pilate attempt to avoid trying Jesus by sending him to Herod Antipas for trial, then twice propose that he chastise Jesus and release him. In each of these accounts, the Roman magistrate is cleared of any wrong in the death of Jesus, causing the blame to fall on the Jews.The early Christians can be shown to have believed the Jews to be forever criminally responsible for the death of Jesus, for example with their persecution by Emperor Constantine and the Christian emperors who followed.A:The Romans (Gentiles) crucified Jesus Christ. The Jews crucified Jesus Christ. All of us crucified Jesus Christ for it was for our transgressions collectively, that He died to save sinners. In the redemptive plan of God, each one of us born of Adam's corrupt seed are responsible for sending Him to die. There is no "false accusation."We are all guilty.

If Jesus commanded his Apostles not to preach to the Gentiles and later commanded Paul to preach to the Gentiles isn't Jesus contradicting himself?

No, there is no contradiction. Jesus' initial instruction to the Apostles was specific to their mission at that time, focused on the people of Israel. The command to Paul to preach to the Gentiles came later as part of the broader plan to spread the Gospel to all nations. This shows the progression and expansion of the mission rather than a contradiction.

Who handed Jesus over to be crucified?

Why did the sign on Jesus' cross offend Jews?

Because it read 'King of the Jews'. The Pharisees (Jewish priests who had Jesus crucified) wanted it changed to "I say I am the king of the Jews" but Pilate would not.


How did the Jews treat gentiles in the time of jesus?

The role of the gentiles was a pretty messed up job. From my research, THey were basically pedophiles, Jesus did not like their role and personally, I don't think anyone nowadays would either. So even though the bible doesn't mention about the fact that normal peasants would be sexually bothered and in some rare cases, raped to death, The Gentiles are a very bad religion.


What did Jesus do to those who crucified him?

If, by "they," the question inquires about what they, Joseph of Arimathaea and Nicodemus, did to Jesus when He died: "...He [Joseph] came therefore, and took the body of Jesus. And there came also Nicodemus, which at the first came to Jesus by night, and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about an hundred weight. Then took they the body of Jesus, and wound it in linen clothes with the spices, as the manner of the Jews is to bury. Now in the place where He was crucified there was a garden; and in the garden a new sepulchre, wherein was never man yet laid. There laid they Jesus therefore because of the Jews' preparation day; for the sepulchre was nigh at hand." (John 19:38-42) That's what they did to Jesus.


What is a summary of the Jews and Gentiles?

It depends on what you are asking. The New Testament has many verses that discuss the Jews and the gentiles. The early church was comprised of some pagans and a number of Jews who had come to believe that Jesus was the messiah. There were some very real questions in those early days about whether only Jewish believers (Hebrew-Christians) were the authentic members of the church, and whether the gentiles would be saved. Interestingly, in other verses, addressed to Jews who did not accept Jesus, the question was whether a person who remained Jewish and did not accept Jesus could be a member of the new Christian faith. (The conclusion of the church was that they could not; believing in Jesus was essential to salvation, and anyone who did not accept him would not be saved.) The church ultimately rejected Jewish customs and practices like keeping kosher or being circumcised, and moved away from its Jewish roots; it instead decided that it would reach out to the gentiles, since most Jews did not seem eager to embrace the new Christian faith. Thus, there is a verse in Acts 11:17-19, which explains, "So if God gave them [the gentiles] the same gift as those of us who believed in the Lord Jesus Christ who was I to think that I could stand in god's way?" When they heard this, they had no further objections and praised God, saying, "So then, even to the Gentiles God has granted repentance that leads to life."
