Educational Setting Political Setting For thousands of years, the Jewish people were primarily subject to foreign rule (Egyptian, Syrian, Babylonian, Persian, Greek, Roman, etc.), with only brief periods of independence. In the first century, Romans ruled the Mediterranean area known as Palestine (modern day Israel), where Jesus was born and lived his life. In the hierarchy of power, the Jewish self-government reported to the authority of the local Roman government (King Herod), which reported to Rome (Emperor Caesar). The Roman government practiced syncretism, accepting that all religious beliefs, philosophical teachings, and government systems are ultimately compatible, or a reflection of, a larger system – the Roman system. They practiced one of the first “one country, two systems” policies – pronouncing that all people had religious freedom, political freedom, and freedom of thought, yet maintaining strict control. The Jews held much distrust and often hatred for the Roman Empire – they were unwilling subjects. At the time of Jesus’ birth, the local Roman ruler, King Herod had initiated a massacre of all Jewish baby boys born at the time. Herod was also responsible for placing forbidden idols within the Jewish temple. Such actions added more reasons for Jewish resentment of the foreign Roman government.

Computer with Internet access Library reference materials Paper, pens, and pencils Begin by asking students about daily life for the common person in ancient Rome. What were some of the hardships the relatively poor endured? Did they have any benefits or entitlements? Given a choice, would students rather have been a rich Roman citizen or a poor one? Why? Ask if any students are familiar with the phrase "bread and circuses." If so, ask them to explain its meaning. Coined by the Roman poet Juvenal, the term refers to entertainment or offerings intended to foil discontent or distract attention from a situation. In ancient Rome, bread and circuses were used to keep the underprivileged poor people quiet.

54. Archeology Roman Period THE TEMPLE The roman empire knew many religions and religious customs.Rituals such as offerings, vows and spells were part of daily life. http://www.archeon.nl/lang_uk/park_rom.htm

THE ROMAN PERIOD Around 55 BC the first Roman armies, under the command of Julius Caesar, arrive in these parts. The territories of the Germanic and Celtic tribes who live here are conquered and the inhabitants submitted. The first Roman Emperor, Augustus, tries to extend the Roman territory as far as the River Elbe, but he fails. After the crushing defeat of two Roman legions east of the River Rhine, the Emperor Claudius abandons the plan to conquer the Germans as far as the Elbe and decides to make the Rhine the official border of the empire. Along the Rhine a series of forts are built, connected by a border road: the 'limes'. The arrival of the Romans changes the way of life of the native people completely. A Roman form of administration is introduced, commerce flourishes and an extensive road system is constructed. The native people seem to be able to adopt the customs of daily Roman life. The Romans founded their towns in conveniently situated places, such as at the crossroads of trade routes, near important rivers or at native places of worship. In Archeon a small Roman town has been reconstructed: Traiectum ad Rhenum ('TAR', crossing place at the Rhine). In TAR we find: a potter's house, a small temple, a public bathhouse, a Roman inn and an amphitheatre.
