Jesus of Nazareth was a Jewish itinerant preacher. From about the year 28 he spake boldly in Galilee and Judea. Two to three years later, he was crucified on the orders of the Roman prefect Pontius Pilate of the Roman soldiers.
The New Testament (NT) is a faith document of the early Christians also the most important source of historical Jesus research. Then Jesus called successors, the Jews of his time preaching the kingdom of God close and called his people about to reverse. His followers proclaimed him after his death as Jesus Christ, the Messiah and Son of God. The result was a new world religion, Christianity. Even outside of Christianity Jesus was significant.
The statue is placed near the main entrance to the Collège Laval, a private high school located in St-Vincent de Paul in Laval.
