‘Christianity Today’ Has a New Take on Jesus’ Ethnicity, and Internet Erupts<\/a><\/p>\n

We’re suddenly seeing a lot of hot takes about Jesus for Christmas, with many of those takes seemingly trying to make him “Palestinian.” This seems in reaction to the Israel-Hamas war and mostly coming from the left to try to culturally appropriate Jesus to fit their political agenda. You even had people who were clergy spouting this stuff, along with a bunch of other things showing they lacked understanding around the Christmas story of Jesus.<\/p>\n

You even had a priest claiming Jesus was a “Palestinian Jew.”<\/p>\n

But the take from Christianity Today posted to X on Christmas Eve had a lot of people reacting as again there seemed to be another take trying to make Jesus something other than what he was — a Jew from Judea.<\/p>\n
