Beliefs That Shaped Jesus — Competing Faiths of His Time | Professor Jiang

What if Jesus wasn’t born into a single, unified religion — but into a world of competing beliefs and philosophies?
In this lecture, Professor Jiang explores the diverse spiritual and political landscape of the ancient Mediterranean — from Jewish sects and Greek philosophy to Roman religion and Persian dualism.
Discover how these rival worldviews shaped Jesus’s teachings, identity, and the rise of Christianity itself.
A must-watch for those interested in theology, history, and the birth of Western thought.
