The correct answers are option C "through Gospels written in a language many could understand" and option E "through the travels of his followers on Roman roads". Among of all the factors that helped Jesus to gain supporters in the early Roman empire were the easy access to his Gospels, and the travels that his followers took around Roman roads. The Gospels of Jesus teachings were written in many languages including: Aramaic, Hebrew and it was especulated that Latin and Greek too; other factor was the spread of his word through his followers in Roman roads, at that time there was a system of 29 great highways interconnected by 372 great road links, all of them leading to Rome.
