 |  |  | Jesus - Notes: Encyclopedia II - Historicity of Jesus - Contemporary sources
Historicity of Jesus - Christian writings.
Jesus features prominently throughout the New Testament and other early Christian writings, but since later parts of the Bible were largely based on earlier ones, it is the oldest remaining Christian texts that are the most valuable for getting a relatively accurate account of Jesus' life.
The most detailed sources of historical information about Jesus in the Bible are contained within the Gospels. However, some also claim that evidence for a historical Jesus ...

 |  |  | Jesus - Notes: Encyclopedia II - Historicity of Jesus - Jesus as mythSome scholars argue that Jesus may never have existed outside of the mythological realm at all; in support of this claim, they cite a lack of detailed contemporary accounts of Jesus' life from sources other than Jesus' followers, insufficient physical evidence, and similarities between early Christian writings and many contemporary mythological accounts. Perhaps most prolific of these Biblical scholars disputing the historical existence of Jesus is the professor of German George Albert Wells. However, currently the position that Jesus never ...

 |  |  | Jesus - Notes: Encyclopedia II - Jesus - Life and teachings, based upon the Gospels
Jesus - Chronology.
The most detailed accounts of Jesus' birth are contained in the Gospel of Matthew and the Gospel of Luke. [1] There is considerable debate about the details of Jesus' birth even among Christian scholars, and few scholars claim to know either the year or the date of his birth or of his death.
Based on the accounts in the gospels of the shepherds' activities, the time of year depicted for ...

 |  |  | Jesus - Notes: Encyclopedia II - Historicity of Jesus - Jesus as historical figureWhile some historians consider Jesus to largely be a mythological and legendary entity, others—generally, though not always, Christians—consider accounts of Jesus' life to be largely, or even entirely, historical and factual in nature. Some of these historians have also suggested that one treat the existence of Jesus and the accuracy of the New Testament as distinct questions.
Even outside of those who believe the Gospel accounts of Jesus to be largely historical, there are many who reject the notion that Christianity is the resul ...

 |  |  | Jesus - Notes: Encyclopedia - Historicity of JesusThe historicity of Jesus (i.e., his existence as an actual historical figure), is accepted by three major world religions, Christianity, Islam, and the Bahá'í Faith based on their respective scriptures, the Bible, the Qur'an and the Kitáb-i-Íqán. However, while Christianity and the Bahá'í Faith consider Jesus to be the Christ (Messiah) and Son of God, and Islam views him as a prophet, secular historians and followers of most other world religions (including Judaism) tend to regard him as an ordinary human, and a few dispute whe ...

Historicity of Jesus - Christian writings.

 |  |  | Jesus - Notes: Encyclopedia - OdinOdin is considered the highest god in Norse mythology and Norse paganism. His role, like many of the Norse pantheon, is complex: he is god of both wisdom and war. He is also attested as being a god of magic, poetry, victory, and the hunt.
His name is, in Old Norse, Óðinn. Although its precise meaning is debated, the name is thought to be related to the word óðr, meaning "excitation" or "fury".
Worship of Odin dates to Proto-Germanic paganism, and the names Old English (and Old Saxon) Wōden; Old ...

Race of Jesus - Jesus in the Book of Revelation.
Contemporary textual evidence on Jesus' life is scarce, and specific descriptions of his appearance even more so. There are no direct references to his appearance during his physical lifetime, though Revelation 1:13–16 describes his features as he appears in his heavenly form, as seen in a vision by John. These have sometimes been used in modern arguments concerning Jesus' race:
1:13 And in the midst of the seven candlesticks [one] like unto the Son ...

 |  |  | Jesus - Notes: Encyclopedia II - Race of Jesus - Artistic portrayalsNot all depictions of Jesus are intended to literally represent how he is thought to have looked when, and if, he existed; many such representations are largely symbolic, spiritual, and personal, and the race chosen may be intended only to reflect, or more recently to contradict, local expectations. Additionally, whether intended to be realistic or not, images of Jesus throughout history have almost always characterized him as being of the race of the artist or target audience, further complicating the task of determining Jesus' race and som ...

 |  |  | Jesus - Notes: Encyclopedia II - Religious perspectives on Jesus - IslamIn Islam, Jesus is known as Isa and is one of God's highest-ranked and most-beloved prophets, specifically sent to guide the Children of Israel.
Unlike Christian writings, the Qur'an does not describe Jesus as the son of God, but as one of five major human prophets (out of many prophets) sent by God throughout history to guide mankind. It also states that Jesus' message to mankind was originally very similar to that of the other Islamic prophets, from Adam to Muhammad, but that it was subsequently distorted by early Christians. ...

Religious perspectives on Jesus - Bahá'í.
The Bahá'í Faith consider Jesus to be a manifestation of God. God is one and has manifested himself to humanity through several historic Messengers. Bahá'í's refer to this concept as Progressive Revelation, which means that God's will is revealed to mankind progressively as mankind matures and is better able to comprehend the purpose of God in creating humanity. In this view, God's word is revealed through a series of messengers: Moses, Jesus, Mohammed, Bahá'u'llá ...

Adherents of Judaism do not believe that Jesus was the Messiah, and reject all claimed Messiahs, holding that the world is not redeemed yet and thus the Messianic Era has not begun. Mainstream Jewish movements reject such beliefs on the grounds that:
