What did you learn about Jesus` background that stands out or surprises you?
women were considered second-class citizens, akin to slaves. The fact that they are mentioned as avid followers of Jesus is unusual - both that they would be allowed to follow him with his disciples, and unusual that the authors of Jesus` biographies would mention their presence at all. Seems Jesus wanted to change things - make a different sort of world for men and women.

Bonus question: Why was the veil torn in two? The sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was torn in two
I believe the veil ''which was a curtain'' was what symbolized separation of God. Only the chief priest could go behind the veil and then only once a year and only with a blood sacrifice.

Why do you think Peter denied knowing Jesus?
Like all of us, he reached a point where lieing was preferable to punishment. He went back to old habits. He likely justified his lie with some reasoning to make himself feel better.

Jesus said ...watch out that you don`t get led astray..., What did Jesus mean by this?
This is a main theme of the writers of the epistles ''Paul, Peter, John, etc..''. To beware of imitators of Jesus and false teachers.
