Jesus Christ. (BC0004 to AD 0032)
Born at Bethlehem
Crucified at Calvary. He rose on the third day.
Resting Place The Garden Tomb in Jerusalem.
Home: Nazareth.
Parents: Mary and Joseph.
The gospel tradition Sources, the history of the life, work,
and death of Jesus of Nazareth reveals nothing of the Christian religion to
which he gave rise. He lived and taught in a remote area on the periphery of
the Roman Empire. His life was of short duration of 36 years, and knowledge of
it remained hidden from most of his contemporary world. None of the sources of
his life and work can be traced to Jesus himself.
Jesus Christ did not leave a single known written word.
Also, there are no contemporary accounts written of his life and death. What
can be established about the historical Jesus depends almost without exception
on Christian traditions, especially on the material used in the composition of
the Gospels of Mark, Matthew, and Luke, which reflect the outlook of the later
church and its faith in Jesus.
