From a Roman "pagan" point of view, Christianity is a return to the dominant worship of Saturn/Cronos, which the Jews also celebrated on Sabbath under the names of Sabaoth and Jehovah.
It is as if the festival of Saturnalia spread all over the calendar.
Jesus then may be then seen as a loyal child of Saturn, as opposed to his half-brother Zeus, who was disloyal and rebellious.
No wonder many Greeks adopted Christianity with a remarkable ease as it promised a return to the Golden Age.
