9. But the claim in the video that Jesus was born in Palestine

is historically incorrect.

When Jesus was born, and for over a century afterward, the land was still called Judea, the southern remnant of what was once the kingdom of Israel.

The name "Palestine" was given to the area by Rome after Jewish uprisings for independence were crushed. Romans tried to obliterate Jewish identity by renaming the land Palestina, which was Latin for Philistine, long time enemies of the kingdom of Israel and its remaining remnant of Judea at the time of the Roman Empire.

So Jesus was born in the nation of Judea, under Roman rule, which was not called Palestine until 135 years after Jesus' time. .
