Answer
There is so little genuine historical evidence about Jesus. It is the nature of historical inquiry that the assertions contained in the gospels can not be claimed as historically true, without independent confirming evidence, which does not exist. But the following are true historical assertions:
  • That there were many wandering preachers in Palestine during the first century BCE and the first century CE, making it plausible that Jesus of Nazareth really did exist, as one of these wandering preachers
  • That many millions of Christians believe that he was the long-awaited Jewish Messiah

  • That a religion was founded in his name

  • That several books of the genre known as 'gospels' were written about Jesus, four of those gospels being placed in the New Testament canon.
