Jesus was not lost. When his parents were finished with their dealings in the city, they left with a large entourage, and assumed that Jesus was somewhere in the group.

Jesus knew He was about His fathers' business. Not Joseph, but the business of God, His father.
What do Jews and christians disagree about?
Who Jesus Christ was... a good teacher/rabbi or the true son of God and Savior of the World Jews did not believe in Christ as the Messiah, the savior of the world.

They were just disappointed when they knew that Jesus is talking to another kind of saving the world.

It wasn't that Jesus could not perform miracles in Nazareth it was because of the people disbelief. The people of Nazareth knew Jesus as He had grown up in that little town.

Why does Matthew in the Bible in refer to Jesus as son of david?
If Jesus was the messiah the first question asked would be "is he of the house of David?" Any claim to be the Messiah would have to pass this genealogical test. Every devout Jew knew that the Messiah would come from the lineage of David. So Matthew traces Christ's genealogy through the royal line of David. The title 'son of David' also links Jesus with humanity.
Did the Sadducees influence Jesus?

What did the Romans blieve in before Jesus?
No. you can not believe in someone you have never heard of. Modern Christians try to see numerous prophecies of Jesus in the Old Testament, but to do so they avoid reading the passages literally or in context.ANSWERYes people believed in Christ before He Came. But you see you have to define the word "Christ". The word Christ is called Messiah in the Old Testament. The Jews were looking and are still looking for the Messiah. If you had ask if people believed in Jesus before He came I would have to say NO as no body knew who the Messiah would be except God. The coming of a Messiah was predicted many times in the Old Testament and many people believed in the Messiah or Christ.
