There were two main groups of people who wanted to kill Jesus: Jews and Romans. Jews wanted to kill Jesus because they did not believe he was truly the Son of God. According to their beliefs, his claims to be God were blasphemous. They expected someone to come help them overthrow the Romans, but instead Christ had come to overthrow the power of sin in their lives. He was not what they expected and was not what they wanted. The Pharisees were a specific group of religious leaders within the Jews who tried on several occasions to kill Jesus. They wanted him dead because he was changing the things that they had always known for certain. They set out to memorize a set of rules and laws, but when Christ came he fulfilled the law and freed people from being bound by it. For the Pharisees, this meant that the very thing they had worked their entire lives to perfect was disappearing with a single man and they wanted nothing more than to be rid of him. Romans wanted to kill Jesus because they believed that he was creating an uprising against them. They didn\'t really care about the specific Jewish beliefs about him being God, but they knew that the Jews did not agree with their government. For very different reasons, the Romans and the Jews both set out to kill Jesus.

That is a wonderful question, but the Bible does not use much punctuation, so in reality, speaking of the grammar, it is suppose to be written Jesus, Christ. not Jesus Christ. As many references in the KJV of the Bible, is Christ Jesus, written correctly Christ, Jesus, or Jesus, Christ. It is referring to Christ.
