Eventually the Jews revolted against Rome. The Romans sacked the Holy City of Jerusalem and the destroyed all but the western wall of the second temple.

The Teachings of Jesus Began teaching around 2,000 years ago Wandered the countryside with his disciples. His life and teachings are recorded in the Gospels of: Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John Make of the first four books of the New Testament of the Christian Bible. Jesus taught that there was only one true god.

The death of Jesus The Romans feared the Jesus would lead an uprising Jesus was arrested and put on trial before Pontius Pilate the Roman governor. Jesus was crucified: nailed or hung on a cross and left to die. According to the Gospels Jesus arose from the dead and remained on earth for 40 days.
