What does the Songs of Solomon have to do with the Gospel scrolls.

It's one of the few good parts of any of the writings, and quite a harvest. It was also about actual earthly happenings, not just pipe dreams blowing smoke about invisible realms.

Well they are not telling the truth, I guess you don't believe them either anymore? So we agree, they are false teachings.

 

[Me-Ki-Gal]

It was the Romans who had the authority and who made the final decision to crucify Jesus.

You be right on James My man . It was the Romans and them same Romans are responsible for spreading the Christ story to the heights it is today . Constantine's Mother did it. What was she thinking ?

So what else do you want from this thread? do you want a different answer?.

 

[Orleander]

Your saying you answered it? Your saying people don't blame the Jews?

 

[NietzscheHimself]

You usually want to try and blame the people with the most money...

 

[EmptyForceOfChi]

Your saying you answered it? Your saying people don't blame the Jews?

I said why people blame other people, because they hold people accountable for actions and/or (intentions).

 

[James R]

so why blame the jews? Or am I under the misconception that some people do? :shrug:

No misconception. Some people do blame "the Jews". It's due to their prejudice against Jewish people, which is akin to racism.

"The Jews" as a people of course cannot be held responsible for the death of Jesus, any more than the entire people of the Roman empire can. The man who ordered the execution was Pontius Pilate, the Roman governor of Judea at the time. It is also written that various people in the Jewish priesthood, including the High Priest, lobbied Pilate for the execution. That was based on self-interest. Jesus was stirring up resentment of the priesthood, complaining at the money being taken at the Temple and generally criticising the priests.

As far as the Romans were concerned, Jesus was a rabble-rouser. They could keep the Jewish leaders happy and maintain law and order by executing him.
