What was Jesus’s failure?

What was Jesus's failure? Politics: being apolitical. Jesus's failure was being apolitical. The state of national resistance to Roman imperialism over Israel and the constitutive kingdoms that made up greater Israel at the time necessitated a sort of recourse to zealotry in the religious classes at the time, and Jesus was too resolutely focused on the spiritual to do that work, even to save his own people. His only contribution to the resistance effort was rhetorics, and yet, although he may have solved the question and puzzle of Cicero, he did so in an apolitical pacifist mode that made it completely ineffective and nothing but a curiosity that became relevant too late so save Israel. it would not be wrong to say that Jesus was a coward and then a failure.
