Best Answer

Most Conservative Jewish theologians preserve belief in the Immortality of the Soul, but while quotes concerning the Resurrection of the Dead are not deleted, English translations of the prayers obscure the issue.

It is Reform Judaism which has denied the belief in the Resurrection of the Dead. Belief in the afterlife has been reduced merely to the Immortality of the Soul. However, over the course of time, this has changed for some. By the 1980s, Borowitz could state that the movement had nothing clear to say about the matter.

What religious sect was responsible for the death of Jesus Christ?

It is important to understand what the political climate was in the first century. Rome was the first and last word on all things. Pontius Pilate was there as the long arm of the Roman Empire, ordered to keep peace among the locals. Jesus upset the Jewish leaders and Rabbis, not so much the Roman leaders in the area. But the Jewish leaders used their influence and the threat of civil unrest to provoke the Romans to put Jesus to death.

What role did the Jews play in Jesus death?

The ordinary Jewish person played no real part in the death of Jesus. Those who were the political and religious leaders wanted Jesus removed as He was a threat to their understanding of religion and God. According to the New Testament, these leaders searched for any excuse to have Jesus condemned, even bringing forward witness who lied (Matthew 26:60). However, the Jewish leaders could not sentence anyone to death and so had to bring Jesus to the Roman governor, Pilate, for this to take place (John 18:31). Therefore, although it was Pontius Pilate who ordered the crucifixion of Jesus, it was the Jewish chief priests and elders who requested that this be done.
