1) Which of the following best describes the origins of Christianity?

d) It emerged from Judaism and was based on the teachings of Jesus.

The Law and the Prophets -- the holy books of Judaism -- became the Old Testament of the Christian faith. The New Testament was added to that, which described the life of Jesus (in the Gospels) and expounded on the teachings of Jesus (in the Epistles).

2) Which aspects of Jesus's teachings would influence Roman and other legal systems?

c) ideas about justice

The influence of Christian ideas about justice would especially take root in the Roman Empire as the empire itself became Christianized. By the 4th century, even the emperor, Constantine, became a convert to Christianity. From that point on the empire was dominated by Christian thought.
