Hi guys, just wondering if there are any non biblical references to Jesus [Christian bible]. I found some from Tacitus, Pliny the younger, Josephus, Babylonian Talmud, but can't seem to find any more. [Of course I am talking references to Christ AROUND the time when he was around i.e not 600 years after].

Its for a project at school. Thanks for any help.wink.gif

You've quoted just about them all - well all the ones that refer and are commonly accepted as referring to the Jesus we all think of - but there were quite literally hundreds of Jesus's around at that time as it was a reasonably common name there were also heaps of folks who claimed to be the son of God or the Messiah - When it comes to the REAL Jesus, off the top of my head I think you've just named them all...

Try the gnostic gospels, and any other apocrypha works excluded from the bible...Google gnostic gospels, you should end up with plenty to work with.

Cheers, I had read about the gospel of Judas but didn't realise there were so many others.

My topic is so wide, I fell overwhelmed!
