There already was a large set of sizeable Jewish communities dispersed
throughout the Mediterranean basin and Mesopotamia and probably deep into the
Arabian Peninsular _before_ the Roman Transfer Machine swung into action
following the Revolt of CE 66-70.

That was the population basis the Christian Church in the first century CE
depended upon, right up till the fall of Jerusalem, when they went separate
ways.
