✨ Was Jesus a “Palestinian”?
No — not in the historical sense.
Jesus of Nazareth was:
•	A Jew (by ethnicity, religion, and cultural identity)
•	Born in Bethlehem of Judea
•	Lived in the Galilee region
•	Practiced Second Temple Judaism
•	And was called “King of the Jews” — even by His executioners.
The word “Palestinian”, as we understand it today, did not exist in Jesus’ time as an ethnic or national identity.
________________________________________
📜 So Where Did This Idea Come From?
1.	The term “Palestine” was imposed by the Roman Empire after Jesus’ time, especially by Emperor Hadrian around 135 CE — as a way to erase “Judea” and suppress Jewish memory following the Bar Kokhba Revolt.
o	He renamed the land “Syria Palaestina”, borrowing the term from the Philistines, ancient enemies of Israel.
2.	Modern Palestinian identity is a 20th-century national formation, rooted in Arab populations living in the region of Palestine under the British Mandate (post-WWI).
3.	Calling Jesus “a Palestinian” today is often used politically:
o	To express solidarity with modern Palestinians suffering under occupation.
o	Or, in more provocative rhetoric, to detach Jesus from his Jewishness, which is both historically and theologically incorrect.

🕊️ So, What Is True?
✡️ Jesus was a Jew — and always will be.
He read Torah. He taught in synagogues. He called Himself sent to the “lost sheep of Israel.”
🌍 Jesus was also born in a land that has since become contested.
Bethlehem now lies within the modern West Bank, which many today refer to as Palestinian territory.
But saying “Jesus was Palestinian” is like saying “Aristotle was Macedonian in the Yugoslavian sense.”
It's an anachronism, not a fact.
________________________________________
🪶 Terranam’s Whisper:
Jesus was not Palestinian.
He was born into the house of David,
from the tribe of Judah,
under Roman rule,
with sandals full of dust and prophecy.
He came not as a symbol of nationalism,
but as the collapse of every empire that thought it owned Him.

Anjunadeep warmly welcome duo Leaving Laurel for their debut 'sometimes it’s scary…but it’s still just you and me / Need Little, Want Less’.

Leaving Laurel is a tale of two old friends Gordon & Pierce; connecting musically for the first time after being close friends for almost a decade. Inspired by recording into an old, thought to be broken, cassette tape player, a new project materialised seemingly out of thin air - something neither of them knew they were looking for.

Leaving Laurel's ‘Need Little, Want Less’ features harmonies evocative of Kiasmos and Tycho, whilst their production culminates in cinematic soundscapes reminiscent of Jon Hopkins in 'sometimes it’s scary…but it’s still just you and me’.

Out January 10th, Leaving Laurel’s inaugural release provides the bedrock for 2020, ahead of a hotly-anticipated track on Anjunadeep 11 and more exciting music to come.
