The correct statement about Christianity from the options provided is: "Christianity was outlawed until Emperor Constantine converted."

Here's a brief explanation for each statement:

  1. The Ketuvim is a section in the Holy Bible. - This statement is not true concerning Christianity. The Ketuvim refers to a section of the Hebrew Bible (Tanakh) in Judaism, not the Christian Bible.

  2. Judaism began as a branch of Christianity. - This statement is false; Christianity actually began as a movement within Judaism. Christianity and Judaism are distinct religions, with Judaism being older.

  3. Pesach is a major Christian religious holiday. - This statement is incorrect. Pesach, or Passover, is a major Jewish holiday that commemorates the Exodus from Egypt. It is not a Christian holiday, although it is significant in the context of Jesus' Last Supper.

  4. Christianity was outlawed until Emperor Constantine converted. - This statement is true. Christianity faced periods of persecution in the Roman Empire until Emperor Constantine converted to Christianity and issued the Edict of Milan in 313 AD, which granted religious tolerance to Christians.

So, the best choice here is about the outlawing of Christianity until Constantine's conversion.
