What does the Bible say about the Jews killing Christ?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible affirms that it was the Jews who played a significant role in the crucifixion of Christ, as demonstrated in the New Testament.

The question of Jewish culpability in the death of Christ is a serious and sensitive matter addressed in Scripture. The New Testament clearly indicates that Jewish leaders conspired against Christ and sought His death. In Acts 2:23, Peter specifically accuses Jewish people of taking Jesus and by wicked hands crucifying Him. This accusation is also witnessed in Acts 3:13-15 where Peter calls out the Jewish leaders for denying the Holy One and killing the Prince of Life. It is evident from prophetic passages such as Isaiah 53 that the suffering of the Messiah was foretold, which would include His death at the hands of both Jews and Gentiles. Nevertheless, this does not alleviate the responsibility borne by the Jewish leaders for their actions against Christ.
