Theologically, the theme of Jesus the Christ being slain at the demand of His own by being betrayed to Machiavellian outsiders is important in Christianity. It has the corollary of emphasizing that Jews matter to Christianity. Jews are indispensable to the Christian story as the special covenant people whose story undergirds and introduces the Christian story. Christians do not say that Jesus the Christ popped out of the eternal godhead into earthly history as a man in a vacuum. No, they say He was sent to be a Jew, and it also matters that Gentiles are outside of the Jewish covenant as this sets the stage for the illustration of God’s special grace in reaching out past the Jewish people to Gentiles. You can’t just toss it all into a Mixmaster and hope to come up with anything logical. There is an order and a purpose to it all.
Marcion tried to do that....
