Hello,
Today we mostly took notes again on a presentation that Mr. Schick made. Here are my notes:
Octavian - AKA Caesar Augustus
Pax Romana - a period of peace and prosperity > built roads, aqueduct (brought water to the cities)
Set up civil service to take care of roads, the grain supply, even a postal service
Augustus dies = 76 in A.D. 17 and passes power to.............
From Jesus to Christianity:
Jesus was a Roman citizen and a practicing Jew
At 30, began his ministry preaching to the poor in the empire and reaching out to outsiders
Statements like "My kingdom......" make the Romans and the Jews nervous and they began to plan his execution
Governor of the Roman province of Judea = Pontius Pilate sentence's Jesus' death
