Kinda like if they outlawed pennies in the USA?Can you identify all the times Jesus defied Roman authorities or violated Roman laws?OK. Let me get this straight.
So some dude named Jesus is a bit of a rabble rouser. Often rails against the local and Roman government.
Then one day he gathers up a gang of a dozen thugs and occupies and violently attacks a market while armed with a scourge. And took the coins.
That's called armed robbery in today's parlance.
Today that could get you several years in prison.
Back then, armed robbery could get you crucified.
His problem with the money changers wasn't about the Temple Tax. It was about shortchanging the poor and the pilgrims to the Temple. They were just cheating the poor.
What?????
