Fredriksen’s book‚ Jesus of Nazareth‚ King of the Jews‚ she writes of piercing the image of the historical Jesus together. She states the issue of the concept of who Jesus was is still unknown. The Gospels portrayed him as a teacher or an apocalyptic Messiah. From information received from different sources‚ they still represent a different image for each historian. Jesus’ death is one of the most accepted aspects of him. It still brings issues‚ as Pilate could have killed Jesus swiftly‚ but his crucifixion

In the film Jesus‚ Joseph seemed to be one of the most important things in Jesus’ life‚ but in the Bible‚ there is almost no description of Joseph’s role as a father. Jesus cared about Joseph very much like his own father just like Joseph loved Jesus as his own. In the film‚ Jesus became very depressed and didn’t want to go preach to the world without his guidance when Joseph died. Joseph was his role model and Jesus did look up to him. Joseph did teach him how to be a carpenter and taught him how

The resurrection of Jesus of Nazareth is an authentic event as verified by many sources and is historically and biblically true. “After more than 700 hours of studying this subject‚ I have come to the conclusion that the resurrection of Jesus Christ is either one of the most wicked‚ vicious‚ heartless hoaxes ever foisted on the minds of human beings or it is the most remarkable fact of history.”Josh McDowell.

The Jews expected Jesus to fulfill His theme of Jesus as Messiah. Jesus proves He is the Messiah by His actions showing how true of a Messiah He is‚ His lineage and coming from the line of David‚ and the way in which He defeats opposing powers and justifies their need for a king.

Jesus was the Word of God‚ and with that said‚ Jesus’s divine nature and ability did not alter when He became flesh. When Jesus became flesh and gained his

Jesus Christ is the self-proclaimed Messiah‚ and his mission was to follow God’s will‚ and spread the word about God’s will.
