The book “Jesus of of Nazareth, King of the Jews: A Jewish life and the emergence of Christianity” was written by Paula Fredriksen in 2000. This book is a good choice for me to learn about the origin of Christianity. This book provides many information about Jews’ daily rituals and life experiences in the ancient time. I also learn the Jewish’ religious, political, and circumstance backgrounds during Roman Antiquity. This book describes the relationships between Christianity and Judaism. Jesus was a Jew and he crucified on the cross at the age of 33. Some Jews believed that Jesus was the son of God; some Jews were not believe in him. Jesus’ s apostles established Christian church in the first century. It was the beginning of the Christianity history. This book also includes Jews’ contexts, language,  landscape, governance under the Roman government in the New Testament in the Bible. I believe that the religious, political, and economic are important factors effects Jews’ modern history. As we know, Jews have been dispersing to many countries over the world. Jews have encountered unprecedented holocausts, catastrophes, and persecuted in this tumultuous era. However, this nation becomes more and more successful and strong. Jews have amazing contributions in these domains such as science, economic, and medical. The main reason for the existence of this nation is because Jews have a strongly relationship with their religious. Jews have been practicing their religious beliefs no matter what situation they are in. The religious plays a certain role in giving Jews a hope, wisdom, and identity.
