Question

Where was Christ born? Why was he crucified?

Short Answer

Solution

Jesus was born in Bethlehem, a little hamlet in Jerusalem. His parents, Joseph and Mary, were Jews. Jesus was born around 4 BC. Jesus stressed one God and valued love, fraternity, and compassion. He openly criticized all negative actions and evils. As a result, the wealthy and mighty Romans became his enemies. They reported to Pontius Pilate, the Roman Governor of Palestine, accusing Jesus of claiming to be the king of Jews and so pushing people to fight against Roman rule. Jesus was imprisoned and crucified. Christians adopted the cross as a sacred symbol.
