Document Summary
Roman era of judaism, beginning of christianity by the jew named jesus of.

Right after john the baptist began his movement, jesus of nazareth was baptized by him and became john"s disciples. Jesus began a movement in palestine that became known as the jesus movement: warning that god was coming soon, he was considered a rabbi/teacher/someone who knew what he was saying and was very charismatic. But most christians sound like the apostles that came from the church after. Jesus" death, as opposed to john the baptist. Apostles that knew jesus the best, kept him alive by oral tradition. This is what they heard and this is what they proclaimed.
