be God, Jesus also follow the Jewish law perfectly.

disfavor, persuaded Pilate, a Roman governor of the Southern
province of Israel to authorize an execution.
Jesus Brutally been tortured and the end they hung Him by his
hands, which were nailed to horizontal wooden beam (cross)
This method of execution restricted the airflow to his lungs, killing him
in three hours.

next 40 days journeyed in both the southern and northern province
of Israel.
This was conclusive proof that God is real.
