    I mean, Jesus was famously born in Bethlehem, which is currently in Palestine. And Rome did technically rule over Spain at that time.

      I see where you’re coming from, and while I agree that Jesus was born in Bethlehem and that Rome ruled over Spain, I still feel that connecting them doesn’t quite work for me. The geographical link is there, but the historical and cultural contexts are pretty different imo
