That makes a minimum of 35 years where Jewish sacrifices were accepted by God after Jesus' death.According to Christianity, the Christ was the final and perfect sacrifice, and therefore no further sacrifice was needed or would be accepted.

Why did the Romans kill Jesus but made a religion?

The Romans Killed Jesus because Pilate feared an uprising spurred by the Jewish Pharisees. Killing Jesus, as the Pharisees demanded was a small price to pay for political stability. As they were heathens, they did not recognise God, and had no idea that a religious movement would be born from their actions. The Roman Empire would not have a Christian Emperor for another 300 years.

Also, while Jesus would not have celebrated them, there were Roman festivals such as the Saturnalia (birth of the Sun god) that were very popular in the Roman empire.
