April 08, 2007 What did you learn about Jesus` background that stands out or surprises you?The Jews held much distrust and often hatred for the Roman Empire " they were unwilling subjects. At the time of Jesus' birth, the local Roman ruler, King Herod had initiated a massacre of all Jewish baby boys born at the time. Herod was also responsible for placing forbidden idols within the Jewish temple. Such actions added more reasons for Jewish resentment of the foreign Roman government. |
