A priest's statement on CNN that Jesus was a 'Palestinian Jew' has sparked controversy, with some arguing that Jesus lived in Judea, not Palestine, and that the term 'Palestine' was introduced by the Romans after his death. Others claim that Jesus was an Israeli Jew and that 'Palestine' didn't exist during his lifetime. The assertion has led to heated debates, with some calling it 'ridiculous' and 'gross.'
I've been hearing "Jesus was a Palestinian" for years, but it's become popular during this war, as the war has taken place over Christmas. Anyway here is the truth. No, Jesus was not Palestinian. Or Israeli. He was a rabbi from Judea, a Jew living under Roman colonial rule.

Jesus was not a Palestinian. To say such a thing is to try to erase Jewish history, to erase Jewish ties to the land. “Palestine” didn’t exist when Jesus was alive. Jesus was a Jew. A proud, observant Jew. He was a Jew born in Israel under Roman occupation. Merry Christmas.
I’m no expert @CNN, but Jesus could not have been a “Palestinian Jew” because the term “Palestine” was introduced by the Romans some years after his death. Jesus lived in Judea. To retrospectively call him “Palestinian” suggests a political agenda https://t.co/kEud02PnyO

Jesus wasn't Palestinian. He was a Jew. AOC casting Jesus, Mary and Joseph as Palestinian is incredibly gross. Today's Palestinians would have killed baby Jesus, kidnapped and raped Mary, and slaughtered Joseph. Simply for being JEWS.
