The second important event that one should be aware of if one wishes to understand the New Testament is **the Roman occupation of Palestine**. This event set the socio-political context in which Jesus lived and preached, shaping the environment and challenges that the early Christian movement faced. The crucifixion of Jesus is also crucial but is typically seen as part of the narrative of Jesus' life rather than a broader context like the Roman occupation.
