Also, it was part of god's eternal plan that he was to be sacrificed. That IS the WHOLE CRUX of the religion. It's what he was created for, his purpose. There is no blame attached to Jews. He even instructed Judas to go and tell the Roman snatch team where to find him.
I never understood that blame the church attached to Jews for hundreds of years- they blamed them for killing jesus when it was supposedly his sacrificial purpose to die and take all the sins etc.
Millions of jews have died over the centuries for that prejudice.
I don't blame the Jews any more than anybody else. The Jewish leaders in Jerusalem where the direct instigators, but that doesn't mean that every Jew is directly responsible. Jesus died for the sins of mankind, therefore anyone who who sins is responsible for the death of Jesus.
