truthfully, archaeologists of all denominations have reached the top that there very in all danger became a guy named Jesus who became crucified by way of the Romans. because of the fact the made from a especially atheist archaeological application, i will inform you which you're interior the minority disagreeing that He existed. almost all Jewish archaeologists renowned that He existed based in a brilliant area on a checklist called the Babylonian Talmud. it incredibly is seen an thrilling and substantial area of Jewish historical past. for sure, there is not any thank you to tutor divinity and in elementary terms Christian sources have faith that He became something different than a guy or contained concerning Muslims, a prophet. it is genuine that the feedback by way of Josephus are seen in all danger to be forgeries, yet to the superb of my wisdom, those are the only prominent forgeries pertaining to to textual references from that era by way of non-Christian sources. indexed under are some links consistant with contemporary archaeological/historic historical past ideals. on your reference, countless the authors you indexed above referenced Jesus or "the Christ".

Answer 3

There's a passing mention of someone called something close to jebus... I think the anglizised version would be joshua from a roman historian. I think it was written a few decades after the whole resurrection thing happned. That's about all.

Answer 4

If you would consider the works of a Roman Historian to be a Roman History book.

Flavius Josephus wrote:

About this time there lived Jesus, a wise man, if indeed one ought to call him a man. For he was one who performed surprising deeds and was a teacher of such people as accept the truth gladly. He won over many Jews and many of the Greeks. He was the Messiah. And when, upon the accusation of the principal men among us, Pilate had condemned him to a cross, those who had first come to love him did not cease. He appeared to them spending a third day restored to life, for the prophets of God had foretold these things and a thousand other marvels about him. And the tribe of the Christians, so called after him, has still to this day not disappeared.
..................... Jewish Antiquities, 18.3.3 §63

The younger Ananus, who had been appointed to the high priesthood, was rash in his temper and unusually daring. He followed the school of the Sadducees, who are indeed more heartless than any of the other Jews, as I have already explained, when they sit in judgment. Possessed of such a character, Ananus thought that he had a favorable opportunity because Festus was dead and Albinas was still on the way. And so he convened the judges of the Sanhedrin, and brought before them the brother of Jesus, the one called Christ, whose name was James, and certain others, and accusing them of having transgressed the law delivered them up to be stoned. Those of the inhabits of the city who were considered the most fair-minded and who were strict in observance of the law were offended at this. They therefore secretly sent to King Agrippa urging him, for Ananus had not even been correct in his first step, to order him to desist from any further such actions. Certain of them even went to meet Albinus, who was on his way from Alexandria, and informed him that Ananus had no authority to convene the Sanhedrin without his consent. Convinced by these words, Albinus angrily wrote to Ananus threatening to take vengeance upon him. King Agrippa, because of Ananus' action, deposed him from the high priesthood which he had held for three months and replaced him with Jesus the son of Damnaeus.
..................... Antiquities 20. 9.1 199-203

Answer 5

There are a few Roman writers that mention Christ, but they are all late 2nd and 3rd century writers. Some earlier documents (letters etc) mention the Christians and the general movement but no mention of Jesus directly.

Essentially, while we don't have compelling evidence that he existed, there is enough circumstantial evidence that it would not be surprising if he had existed. On the other hand, we still have no evidence of his divinity or the existence of god, even if Jesus had existed.

Edit:
Note that the Romans often recorded the names of those they crucified, and not mention of Jesus is found, however this is not conclusive either way.

Answer 6

There is a Roman Scribe called Flavius Josephus who wrote about Jesus, his life, death & reserection. I believe that the British Library, Euston Road, London. Has it preserved in their vaults.

Answer 7

Valleus note.....Acta Pilati - Pilate's report to Caesar of the arrest, trial, and crucifixion of Jesus

Herod Antipater's defense before the Roman Senate in regard to his conduct at Bethlehem

Constantine's letter in regard to having 50 copies of the scriptures ( some mentioning christ) written and bound.

Talmud history ( Jewish, who opposed Jesus)- Jonathan's interview with shepherds...Letter of Melker, priest of synagogue at Bethlehem..

Gamaliel's interview with Mary and Joseph and others concerning Jesus

report of Caiaphas to the Sanhedrin concerning the execution of Jesus

Answer 8

Pontius Pilate wrote of Jesus in a letter. Thousands of Jewish biblical writings about Jesus. The Dead Sea Scrolls wrote of Jesus. Josephus wrote of Jesus. Pliny the elder wrote of Jesus. Why would you need a Roman history book when you have the Bible? The people who knew Jesus best and saw him everyday.

Answer 9

Roman History book? I don't think I have ever seen a Roman History book. When did anyone start writing History books, anyway? I wonder.

Merry Christmas!

Answer 10

Good question. Other than the Bible, I have wondered why I've never seen an actual account of Jesus in any history book. :-)
