This is what some of the jewish uproar is about. The movie seems to absolve the Romans and put the blame squarely on the jews. When jesus is on the cross a jew in the crowd says "let his blood be on us and on our children" or something to that effect. Gibson, removed the subtitle for this line but it is still stated in Aramic.



From what I recall from the Bible, the Jewish leadership were the one's wanting to crucify him, not the general Jewish population. The leadership saw him as a threat to their power. People wouldn't have to come to them anymore to speak to God, they could do it directly.
