Of course not, naturally he was not a communist in the Marxist scientific sense, perhaps if he had read Marx some more things would have occurred to him, it can simply be said that he was trying to spread a little more social justice and equality in a rather beastly society . In this sense, some things coincided with a communist ideology, at least in part. Much more in any case cannot be expected in an ignorant and superstitious society, which ~~fucked~~ sacrificed goats to have a good harvest. Even so, it became clear later that he was too uncomfortable for the rulers and Roman invaders.
