[[Jesus]] was crucified in [[Jerusalem]] around the year 30 AD. In his death, the [[Bible]] tells us, he bore all the [[sin]]s of mankind, so that we could be clean and without sin. His death is remembered on [[Good Friday]] but it is not the end of the story. Three days later he appeared to his disciples, risen from the dead and [[Christian]]s believe that he is alive today.
Another significant human reason for Jesus' death was the Pharisee's and Sadducee's increasing jealousy of Jesus. He was increasingly popular with the common people and they were not.
Although the Jews at the time of Jesus had a great expectation of a [[Messiah]], they generally did not recognize Jesus as the Messiah. There was an expectation of a military leader who would overthorw overthrow the Romans and restore a mighty earthly kingdom. Jesus, instead, offered a picture of a suffering servant as the Messiah. This was something that the people did not expect, nor want, and this may have contributed to people plotting against Jesus. An example of this clash of expectations can be seen in [[John 6]] where the people try to force Jesus to be king, but he does not accept this.
Human reasoning played a part in the rejection of Jesus. Leading Jews were worried about the loss of their political power - there is evidence that they felt that Jesus would stir up the Romans so that they would lose their place. This is noted in [[John 11]]:48-50, after the resurrection of Lazarus.
Leading Jews also hated that Jesus challenged their authority. For example, in [[Luke 19]], Jesus challenged their authority when he over-turned tables in the Temple. This anger likely contributed to the plots against Jesus.
When Jesus was brought before Roman justice, Pilate's fear of an uprising led to his judgement judgment of execution of justice. This is seen in [[Mark 15]].
====Christian understandings of God's reasons for the crucifixion of his Son====
The story is told in all the gospel accounts. It can be found in [[Matthew 27]], [[Mark 15]], [[Luke 23]] and [[John 19]]. Below is the text from Matthew 27
