  1. No he wasn't a Palestinian... but Jesus is in the Koran and yes Muslims respect him, they believe he is a Messanger of God. And they also believe he will return to Earth on Judgement day.


  2. My Savior was  a Jew of Hebrew decent.  Everything He did was as a Jewish Rabbi and Scroll scholar.  He lived in the Hebrew tradition.

    No one living at the time ever called him a Palestinian and only a fool would.  Whether you believe His teachings or not.

    There is proof of Christ, but none that there ever was a Palestine.

  3. Jesus was not "palestinian" what a funny suggestion.  Is the Quran now saying he's muslim the Christians I think would have something to say about that!

    Christians don't call Israel "Palestine", sorry.

    Also, West Bank is a name that really just means, "west bank" of Jordan river.

    Bethlehem is in Judea and Samaria, Israel, not near the west bank of a river, and not in some place called palestine.

    Palestine was a region of British mandate that is now split between Jordan and Israel.

    Please also note that you are in Israel Travel section, not "palestine."

  4. No,he lived in the roman province/ kingdom of judaea name was changed in 135

    Edit

    I didnt mention religion calling jesus palestinian is like calling Peter the great a soviet

  5. If Jesus was a Palestinian, then I'm the tooth fairy, you dig?

    Rome called the region encompassing Israel, Syria, Jordan, and Lebanon- Palestine.

    There never was a country called Palestine, independent or not.

    Jesus, known in Hebrew as Yehoshua (Joshua), Aramaic "Yeshua" (salvation), (Christ was a Greek name : "Jesu Kristos"), and in Latin (Iesus, as in the Christian story of the sign above his head "Iesus Nazarenus, Rex Iudeorum"(Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews)......was a Jew, an Israeli Jew.

    I spit upon your stupidity and your apparent lack of knowledge in the following fields: religion, history, ethics, and geography.

    And I dare you, or any other of your slimeball Arabic friends that crawled and slithered out of that infernal rathole called the Ramadan section, to CHALLENGE me in a contest of wits and knowledge.

    I AM the expert around these parts- there is no escaping the knowledge that I bring forth and the Israel haters that I disprove by means of sagacious wisdom.

    Anyone here will attest to that.

  6. Jesus was a Jewish Israeli.

  7. No. Jesus was not a Palestinian! Bethlehem existed long before the name Palestine was invented.

    The term Palestine was given by Titus to the land of Judea and Samaria when the Romans wanted to obliterate a Jewish connection to their homeland. He turned to his historians and asked who was the worst enemy of the Jews. When Titus learned the worst enemy was the Philistines, he renamed the place Palestine or Philistine. Unknown to Titus and the "Palestinians" of today is the fact that the word Philistine means invader in Hebrew. Look at the irony the invading Moslem Arab nomads are demanding their rights as "Palestinians." We demand our rights as "invaders!" We are Palestinians, we demand our rights. We are "invaders," we demand our rights. How religion plays into this dynamic of deceit is now becoming readily apparent.

    All the territories the Israelis now possess are theirs by legal right -- the right conferred by the League of Nations Mandates Commission, when it carefully defined the territory which would be set aside, from the vast territories in the Middle East that had formerly been in the control of the Ottoman Turks as part of their empire, and which had been won by the Allies.

  8. If Jesus was a Palestinian then the Palestinians are Jews, case closed.

  9. No he was a jew from either the Kingdom of Israel or Judea and was born a jew

  10. at thaat time it was called judea

  11. yes Jesus was Palestinian he was born in Bethlehem.

  12. Yes, he was.

  13. his mother Mary is a Jew and all his relatives are Jews . so, he was born a Jew . and his message was directed to the Jews his people and he made that clear .

    Palestinians were present at his time side by side by the Jews and were mentioned in the Bible .

    i assume that many Christians in Palestine must be from the Jews of that time who converted to Christianity .

  14. Wow, great question.  I never really gave this any though at all, even though I have posted several times that Palestinian people are the "People of the Book."

    Jesus was a Palestinian.  Just one more feather to their hat.  They really are a remarkable people.

    My response to "you are all colors"

    I am sorry but you are quite incorrect on a number of points.

    1. He was born into an Arab Jewish family but he was not a Jew.

    This is a point many people misunderstand. He was God. He existed before he was born.  He had a plan that He implemented before His birth.  The Jewish religion became corrupted and moved away from His teachings.  He came into the world having already planned to convert Jewish people to Christianity.  He was never a Jew, He was a Christian before His birth, and He schooled Jews after His birth to be Christian.

    2. His message was not directed to Jewish people at all.  His message was directed to all people of all nationalities.  If you read the Bible this will be obvious.  He sent His converts out into the world to convert them.

    3. Your comment "Palestinians were present at his time side by side by the Jews " shows you critical misunderstanding.

    Jew is a religion, not a race. Some Palestinians were Jews and some were not.

    4. Your assumption that some Palestinian people converted to Christianity is correct.  Some remained Jew, and in time, some from both religions converted to Islam.

    Please note that the members of these religions in this region were all Arab Palestinian people and have no connection to the zionist of ersatz israel whose ancestry is from Eastern Europe and who are converts to Judaism.  How else would they feel free to invade, murder, steal and occupy the land?

  15. To put an end to this debate, only 12-1 Jews believed in Jesus and most of Jesus believers were Palestinians.

  16. I believe he was Israeli.

    The Romans did not rename Israel until a few years later.

    Remember; it was the Romans who invented and used the name Palestine in order to erase the connection between the Jews to their homeland, Israel.

    The term refers to the Philistines; non-Semitic people who invaded Israel hundreds of years earlier.

  17. Jesus is a descendant of King David who came from Judah, one of the Twelve Tribes of ISRAEL.

  18. No, the land in which Jesus was born and lived was called Judea- Israel.

    Yeshua (יהושוע) was born from the line of David and circumsized on the eighth day.  Jesus calls Himself a Jew in John 4:22, and states that it is the Jews from which salvation comes. Jesus is also referred to as "rabbi" on several occasions. He taught in the synagogues on the Sabbath. He also read from the scrolls (which only Jews were -- and still are -- allowed to do). Finally, Jesus went into the Temple, which means He was Jewish because non-Jews were NEVER allowed into the Temple, only the outer courts.

    •Matthew 1

    The Genealogy of Jesus Christ

    1 The book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the Son of David, the Son of Abraham:

    Luke 2

    Circumcision of Jesus

    21 And when eight days were completed for the circumcision of the Child, His name was called JESUS, the name given by the angel before He was conceived in the womb.

    Jesus Presented in the Temple

    22 Now when the days of her purification according to the law of Moses were completed, they brought Him to Jerusalem to present Him to the Lord 23 (as it is written in the law of the Lord, “Every male who opens the womb shall be called holy to the LORD”),[24 and to offer a sacrifice according to what is said in the law of the Lord, “A pair of turtledoves or two young pigeons.”

  19. Yes, he was born in Bethlehem. That is why Christian Palestinians are present today (although routinely killed by zionist Jews) in the holy city, they are descendents of the world savior Jesus Christ.

  20. Yes he was a Palestinian, as the Christians of that region believe.

    Israel was made in 1948 and Jesus was born waaaay before that...Palestine!

  21. No; he was a Judaean.

    A Palestinian, is anyone born in Palestina, after the ROMANS named it that.  Because it was the ROMANS who came up with that stupid name anyway.

  22. Rabhani makes a most persuasive case in his classic "A Syrian Christ" (1915) that Jesus must have been an ethnic Syrian. The region was known to the ancients as Syria-Palestine so this means yes,he was of the same ethnicity as Palestinians.

  23. Essentially,the ancient historians of the era make little distinction between Syrian and Palestinian; even Herodotus writing in the 5th century B.C.  generally describes the area currently under zionist occupation as "Syria-Palestine". The impression is gained that the general population was predominately Syrian/Palestinian. The jews had been ingathered by John Hyrcanus in the 2nd century and resided exclusively in Judea and Samaria. Since the term "Jew" simply is an abbreviation for "Judean" - a resident of Judea - then Jesus could not have been a jew,since he was from Galilee,which in Aramaic means "Land of the Goyim". The ethnic makeup of Galilee in his time was about 90% Syriac with a smattering of Greeks. The Christian texts were bowdlerized by Saul/Paul in an effort to annex Christianity to Judaism,in other words abort it as an original faith and make it over into a mere variant of Judaism. He failed obviously but did succeed in polluting it's teachings with Judaism.

  24. That should be evident to any anyone who has studied His life and teachings. He was certainly not an ethnic Hebrew,although He may have been familiar with their religion; however His essential teachings come from God. The Rabhani book mentioned by Brynn is online,by the way.

  25. no  there were no such things as 'palestinians' until the late '70's so I'm thinking that HE was a JEW..Just as the Bible says..shese!!

  26. Jesus was actually a Jew, and even studied under the famous Jewish Rabbis of the time. In the Talmud he is referred to as "Yeshu."

  27. I heard Jesus can't return because he is Palestinian and the Israelis wont let him in

  28. yes he is. he was born in the holy city of Bethlahem, located in Palestine.

    wait..... Palestine during those times... how could that be when it is Israel and palestine never existed....

    hmmm ask yourselfs that israelis!
