Who Killed Jesus?

The death of Jesus has been a subject of intense debate throughout the history of Christianity.

Not only has the belief that the Jews killed Jesus served as the basis for rampant anti-Semitism throughout history, argues Crossan, but it is also historically untrue. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005.
