The Bible is not one book about one religion or one people, it is a bunch of books about people in general and altogether a story that is literal in someways, but can not be understood in the most important ways based on single words or sentences, or even chapters or verses. The Story of Jesus is amazing when comprehended with imagination and spirit, but it makes little sense as a actual and complete story of the Son of God. In the first place, we can not prove that there is a God or a son of god.
So, we have to fill in the blanks, construct the life and times of Jesus in our own minds to come to terms with the real story which is certainly not word for word a representation of the absolute truth about anything except that people have always believed in Gods and sometimes even we are able to have faith in an idea or reality that somehow life works out. But the three groups of rich white men mentioned above seem blind to the richness of the story and the significants of Jesus.
