Jesus was 100% Jewish circa year zero. Observed Torah, went to and taught at synagogues, celebrated Hannukkah, ate a kosher diet, etc. But Christians don’t follow Jesus’s own religious practices.

There was no year 0. It was 1 BCE then 1 CE. Just FYI.
Was it though? Like back then?
Back then it was technically the year 3000 something of recorded history. Christianity declared that that’s when time started.
Romans but yes Christian Romans after the religion took over the empire.
Back then they didn’t use Jesus’s birth (or at least, the date Dionysius Exiguus thought was Jesus’s birth) as the epoch for counting the years.
