• Scotch_Roman

  Monospaced, that's incorrect. Flavius Josephus, a non-Christian Jewish historian (apx. 37–101 AD) wrote about Jesus, along with a number of Jesus' friends/colleagues/acquaintances in his writings.

  Tacitus, the Roman historian (55–117 AD), mentions Jesus, AKA "Christus" in his annals.

  Pliny the younger, Roman governor of Bithynia, talks about Jesus and his followers in at least one of his ten annals.

  The Jewish Talmud gives a detailed account of Jesus crucifixion and death.

  Greek writer/rhetorician Lucian also talks about Jesus.

  Those are just a few to get you started.

  • NONE of which were written during his lifetime.– monospaced1/3

    Very shortly afterwards though. Don't see how that *really* makes a difference.– Scotch_Roman2/3

    Big difference. No actual records of a miracle-maker, anywhere, ever. Not until AFTER he died.– monospaced3/3
