PUT it in the mirror, as if you were born in palestina
Jesus didn't kill Himself. Evil men killed Him even though He was completely innocent. But He allowed it for our salvation. And those who kill themselves and others are not true martyrs. A real martyr are the ones who ARE KILLED BY OTHERS simply because they won't renounce their faith.

Jesus was sent to earth to die as a perfect man, thereby balancing the 'scales of justice', which were put out of balance by Adam's sin. He didn't kill himself, but knew that he would die. He sacrificed himself, which is different from suicide. No other martyr can claim to have redeemed others from sin by dying.

Jesus was a perfect man. 1 Peter 2:22 says that: "He committed no sin, nor was deception found in his mouth."
His motive was pure, he was doing the will of God. It is God who sent him forth to the earth to pave the way for all humans who would exercise faith in his ransom sacrifice and do God's will, so that they would have everlasting life. (John 3:16)
John 3:36 says: "He that exercises faith in the Son has everlasting life; he that disobeys the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God remains upon him."
The reason Jesus was sent forth to preach God's Kingdom and to die so that humans could have everlasting life was because the first man Adam disobeyed God and became imperfect and lost the gift of everlasting life for all humans after him. Romans 5:12 says: "Through one man [Adam] sin entered into the world and death throuugh sin, and thus death spread to all men because they had all sinned."
We all inherited sin from our forefather Adam, along with its dire consequences, namely aging and death. -- Job 14:4; Romans 3:23
God sent his Son from heaven to be a new Adam (a perfect man) to replace the first one. 1 Corinthians 15:45,47 says: "The first man Adam became a living soul. the last Adam became a life-giving spirit. The first man is out of the earth and made of dust; the second man is out of heaven."
The purpose of Jesus death is written in God's Word at Ephesians 1:7 where is says that "We have the release [from the sin and death inherited from Adam] by the ransom through the blood of [Jesus]". And Romans 5:19 says that "Just as through the disobedience of [Adam] many were constituted sinners, likewise also through the obedience of [Jesus] many will be constituted righteous."
People today that kill themselves as "martyrs" are completely different from Jesus in that he did not take his own life, which would be a sin, and his life paid a ransom for all mankind, to benefit all humans who would exercise faith in that ransom.

For one thing, MARTYRS do not "kill themselves". Martyrs are people who witness to the truth and sometimes are killed because of their faithful witness.
What do you mean by "in that moment, many people followers were killed, and for sured many of the followers killed as well"? Try to put it in grammatical form.

Jesus died for the sins of all of us. He shed His blood to be the perfect atonement of our sin, so we don't go to hell. On the third day He rose again, victory over death. Martyrs killed because of what they believed. They bear witness for Jesus.

Jesus died for us...true martyrs die for Him. There aren't many true martyrs today nor have there ever been, and yes David T is right on.

Jesus rose from the dead.
For a well referenced scholarly evaluation of the evidence that Christ rose from the dead, look for "Evidence that Demands a Verdict" by Josh McDowell. It will make a believer out of you, and do so by reason.

well he didn't kill himself, he allowed himself to die, there's a difference. One he could receive his death only because others were present, the other he could have been by himself and died.

Because He was the Son of God who died for the sins of the world. He was resurrected on the 3rd day and is now sitting at the right hand of Father God making intercession for us. A human who commits suicide dies in sin and is in hell. That's a BIG difference!

Jesus is different because his father condemned him to die an excrutiatingly painful death on the cross.
