We are not told that the Apostles were killed "at the behest of the Jews". Peter we know was killed by the Romans, and the folklore about the deaths of the others seldom blames the Jews.
Folklore?
Matthew 27
24 When Pilate saw that he was accomplishing nothing, but rather that a riot was starting, he took water and washed his hands in front of the crowd, saying, “I am innocent of this Man’s blood; see to that yourselves.” 25 And all the people (Jews) said, “His blood shall be on us and on our children!” 26 Then he released Barabbas for them; but after having Jesus scourged, he handed Him over to be crucified.

I'm not disputing that the jews were behind the crucifixion of Jesus, as per the New Testament. I, however, find your choice of quotes to prove that to be somewhat interesting/humorous. In your quote, it says nothing about jews. Jews is an extrapolation into the text. It really says "the people," and Jews is the translator's interpolation. Just strange to choose a quote that backs up that the Jews killed Jesus that never actually says anything about Jews, is all.

The word "boat" (B-T) does not mean that a bird is a tomato.

Seriously? Wrong language! Wrong alphabet! Then you demand an academic source, and post a link to the ...BBC!! What a laugh! If you really want to understand a thing or two, go to the Meru Project website - it is light years beyond any academic source you may refer to.
