Aside from the New Testament, and aside from classical works that Christian copiests may have edited, there is the Talmud. All of the Talmudic references to Jesus were censored when the Talmud was printed in Christian lands, and most of the references to Jesus in the Talmud are anti-Christian polemics, but in tractate Avoda Zara, 16b:15 through 17a:3, there is a passage that (if you find an un-censored version -- the Sefaria web site has it) describes the encounter between a Rabbi Eliezer and one Ya'akov (Jacob) of Kefar Sekhania, a follower of Jesus. As a result of this encounter, Eliezer was arrested and charged with heresy (probably charged with being a Christian). This story must have taken place not too long before the Bar Kokhba revolt (the year 132), and Eliezer recounts a teaching of Jesus told to him by Ya'akov. This teaching is not in the New Testament, but does not contradict the Jesus we know from there, and it has been passed down to us through a community outside of and opposed to Christianity.

What historical evidence for Jesus exists?
There is a great deal of what is termed "hearsay" evidence, from others. However, since Jesus was not known to have written anything down, and since the historians of his time do not mention him, we have only the circular reasoning of his apostles, especially Paul (who admits to having never met him), that he existed. Even the writings of Josephus, who was thought to have made a reference to Jesus, are now accepted, by the vast majority of scholars, to have been interpolated (meaning that these references were only inserted into the writings of Josephus at a much later date. There is no historical evidence that Jesus of Nazareth really did exist. None of his contemporaries mentioned him - not even Philo of Alexandria, who could be expected to have mentioned Jesus if he had known of him. And nothing occurred, whether in Rome, Palestine or elsewhere, as a direct result of the existence of Jesus. Here, we have to accept that absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. Based on our present knowledge, there is no reason to conclude that Jesus did not exist.
Why is Josephus important for proving that Jesus existed?

While there is some debate over the authenticity of the specific mention of Jesus in Josephus' writings, it is still an important piece of historical documentation.
