There were no two Roman emperors that persecuted Jesus. In fact, it would be accurate to say that no Roman emperor ever persecuted Jesus. Although Jesus was executed during the reign of Tiberius, Tiberius himself, more than likely never heard of him. Underlings passed judgement and sentences of non- citizens in the provinces and Jesus was not a Roman citizen.

Were only Christians persecuted by the Roman empire?

AnswerThis is false. Whereas Christianity was by and large tolerated by the pagan Romans, apart from three short periods of official and widespread persecution, the Manichaean religion was totally banned within the Roman Empire. Manichaeanism was only permitted after the Edict of Toleration, and then only for a short time, as Christian emperors began to persecute non-Christian faiths.From the time of Constantine, Jews were also widely persecuted by the Roman Empire.

Why did the Romans persecute the Jews more the Christians?

It is not clear that the Romans persecuted Jews more than Christians. Under some emperors, Christians were heavily persecuted, under others, Jews. During the great Jewish revolts that started in the years 68 and 132, Roman persecution of the Jews was intense. The emperor Hadrian, who put down the second revolt, probably killed half a million Jews in the process. Nero, on the other hand, seems to have really disliked Christians.

How did christaninty play a role in the roman empire?

Christianity was endorsed by the emperors in the Later Roman Empire. All but one of the emperors after Constantine the Great were Christians. The co-emperors Gratian and Theodosius I made mainstream Christianity the state religion of the empire. Theodosius I also persecuted dissident Christian doctrines, tighten and added to anti-pagan laws which previous emperors had introduced, destroyed pagan temples and shrines and persecuted the pagans. Christianity became the dominant religion of the empire.
