Understanding Easter - Part Three: Why Was Jesus Killed?

It’s episode three of our seven-part series, “Understanding Easter.” This episode originally in February of 2021. This is the most-listened-to Strange New World miniseries ever!

Why was Jesus killed? Why did the Roman empire, arguably the most powerful force in the world, execute an unarmed, peasant rabbi from Nazareth? And what did it have to do with one of the most dramatic episodes in Jesus' life: when he fiercely drove the money changers from the Jerusalem Temple? Turns out this mystery goes all the way back to the story of Cain and Abel... Contact SNW at community@saltproject.org.
