In order to understand Jesus in our times, you must read this book by Crossan. The death of Jesus at the hands of the Roman government came after a life of living and teaching non-violence under oppression. In solidarity with the ordinary Jewish people of his time, Jesus taught survival in material and spiritual terms. Sometimes this occurs as cooperation with the authorities, at other times, as opposition - even at the cost of one's physical life.
