What are the five historical books in the New Testament?

The four gospels: Matthew, Mark, Luke, John with Acts can be considered historical books in the New Testament. The book of Acts is a historical account from Jesus' ascension to travels of Paul in his missionary journeys which is more chronological in its account than the gospels. The gospels include historical accounts but are not written purely as a history text.


How do we know what Jesus did or how he prayed in the Garden of Gethsemane alone?

AnswerIn ancient times, reporting of historical events was not as rigorous as we would now expect. Even the best historians would quote, as if verbatim, words the character would have spoken, never thinking of this a deception or poor history. So it is with Jesus, whether or not there ever was a historical Jesus. We read passages where Jesus was alone or where the only witnesses were most unlikely to have been able to pass on what they saw to the author, but the author was only writing of what would probably have happened or been said. This was not far removed from normal practice in ancient times, although historians were not supposed to report events that had not really occurred.


Was Judas Iscariot a family relation to Jesus?

No. This is most unlikely. There is absolutely no evidence, Biblical or historical, to suggest that Judas Iscariot was even remotely related to Jesus. Jesus came from Galilee, a region in the north of the country; Judas came from Iscaria (hence his name) in the south. In those times travel was far less common than it is today; people tended to live, have families, and die in the same region, and hence there would have been little if any contact between Judas and Jesus until he became a disciple.
