Paper Abstract
A 4 page essay exploring the crime Jesus committed under the prevailing laws of the day. The questions investigated were: did Jesus, in fact, commit a crime and if He did, was His punishment in accordance with the Roman legal system in place at the time? Christians do not believe Jesus committed any crime other than to preach the truth. But was that the reality under the laws governing all Jews and Romans? The writer describes the laws and normal punishments in terms of Jesus' declaration that He was the Son of God. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
