As I know from my saint teachers, many peoples of Europe (including #Germanics and #Celts) origin from #Esau aka #Edom; so not from #Lot's neighbours whose did not origin from #Abraham.

    I do not know did some Jesus died on a cross ~2000 years ago or this man is fictional, but #Judea was not independent then, so only #Romans could kill him. Accuse the #Pharisees is part of #antisemitism.
