Summary

This quote suggests that Jesus' popularity and contentiousness stemmed from his tendency to prioritize people over following established protocols or traditions. Jesus is renowned for rejecting societal norms and religious customs to focus on connecting with individuals and catering to their needs. This approach challenged the existing power structures and caused controversy, as it went against the established ways of doing things. Nonetheless, Jesus' commitment to prioritizing people's well-being made him both famous and a target of criticism.
