History of the Jewish Christian Comunity - E-book - ePub

Christian Judaism is a term coined in historical research to describe the ancient Christian classes that existed in the first centuries AD, and combined belief in Jesus with a commitment to preserving the Torah and its laws, before the Judeo-Christian split was completed. This term refers to someone who was born to the people of Israel and believed in Jesus Christ. One of the first leaders of the Jewish Christian community was James, the brother of Jesus.
Most of the Christian Jews in the first sect fled to the city of Pella, located east of the Jordan, before persecutions broke out in Jerusalem in 68 AD. Until then, Christian Jews were accustomed to meeting in (Jewish) synagogues, but since the inclusion of (the atheist prayer) that curses believers in Jesus, they were forced to leave the synagogues.
