The basis of Christianity is Jesus of Nazareth. A shocking character for his disciples who decided to speak to Jews, both those born in Israel and those from other places, about the Messiah. Between the Jews born in Israel and the Jews of the Greek language a schism arose and the latter were expelled from Jerusalem. The expulsion of the Jews of the Greek language from Jerusalem was what led to the expansion of Christianity. Thus, the origin of Christianity is found in Jesus of Nazareth, in his death in Jerusalem, in his Israelite followers, in the expansion towards Greek-speaking Jews, in the intervention of Paul of Tarsus and in the interpretation of Jesus by Saint Paul.
