Who was responsible for Jesus's arrest? who wanted to see him executed? who beleived Jesus was leading Israel astray? practicing sorcery? who was in the crowd when Pontuis Pilate said "Should I let Jesus go? or Barabbas? Who took Jesus off the cross and to the tomb? who visioned the Resurrection? who spent 40 days with Jesus before he descended into Heaven? Do you know the answers to these questions?

    I haven't seen the movie.
  1. Caiphas (Caiphas was appointed High-Priest of the Jews by the Roman procurator Valerius Gratus, the predecessor of Pontius Pilate)
  2. Caiphas, Annas (a previous Roman appointed High Priest) and their Sadducee supporters
  3. Probably any rabbi who did not think he was the Messiah
  4. People who witnessed or heard of his miracles but did not believe they were from G-d (similar to some faith healers I suppose)
  5. Perhpas 200-300 Jewish Zealots who were there on behalf of their comrade BarAbbas, some other Jewish collaborators, and some Gentiles. That makes it what, from 0.005 to .01 % of the Jewish people alive at the time depending on the numbers you use.
  6. Simeon of Cyrene, father of Rufus and Alexander, a Jew from North Africa in Jerusalem for the Passover
  7. Yoseph of Aritmathea, a righteous Jew who happened to make a good living
  8. Miriam and Miriam
  9. 120 Jews

LAST: Jesus Christ is alive and well and seated at the right hand of the Father...

Is that in the movie ? If not, why not ?

    May I ask you this?
  1. Who crucified myriads of Jews ?
  2. Who tortured Jews ?
  3. Who burned Jews to death ?
  4. Who burned them in their synagogues ?
  5. Who raped their wives, mothers, and daughters ?
  6. Who skinned them alive ?
  7. Who expelled them from their lands and took their possessions ?
  8. Who stole their children from them ?
  9. Who tried to kill every living Jew to the third generation ?

Do you know the answers to these questions?
