It is unclear why nothing was ever written about Jesus, outside the gospels. Even the gospels ultimately come back to a single source, since scholars say that the Gospels of Matthew and Luke were actually copied from Mark's Gospel, and that John's Gospel was inspired by Luke's Gospel with some material copied direct from Mark.
The most significant Jewish historian living around the time of Jesus was Philo of Alexandria, who wrote of every sect and religious movement that he knew of in the world of Judaism, yet he never mentioned Jesus, although scholars believe he would have had he heard of Jesus. Later in the first century, the Jewish historian, Josephus, wrote a series of books on his own life and the history of the Jews. He briefly recorded the death of John the Baptist in 36 CE, and the stoning of James, as well as mentioning the Christians who seemed to follow a Jesus who was said to have been crucified. He also mentioned a number of failed religious leaders and revolutionaries from the first half of the first century. Yet Josephus never mentioned the life and crucifixion of Jesus, although his miracles and resurrection should have brought him to the attention of Josephus.
If Jesus of Nazareth really lived, performed amazing miracles, was crucified at the express demand of the Sanhedrin and was seen by many after his resurrection, there is no explanation as to why no first-century historian, Roman, Greek or Jew, ever mentioned Jesus.

What became of Pontius Pilate after the crucifixion of Jesus?
After the crucifixion of Jesus, Pontius Pilate continued to serve as the Roman governor of Judea for a few more years before being removed from his position by the Roman Emperor. There are conflicting historical accounts of what happened to him after that, with some suggesting he was exiled or committed suicide.
What made Jesus's life change?
Your question was answered differently by believers as the first century passed. In the years following Jesus's death, most believers thought that Jesus was not born the Messiah. They believed that he became the Messiah when he was crucified. Thus, his life changed at the crucifixion. Later in the first century, people began to place more emphasis on the public ministry that Jesus had done in the few years before he was crucified. They came to point to a different moment as the point when Jesus became the Messiah. They decided that Jesus became the Messiah-which certainly changed his life-when he was baptized by John the Baptist. At the end of the first century, the belief changed again. Christians came to believe that Jesus was born the Messiah; so in terms of his divine identity, Jesus's life did not change. Christians still believe this today. Historically, what changed Jesus's life? Well, the beginning of his public ministry and his crucifixion.
Are there any real historical records of a person named Jesus claiming to be the Messiah other than stories in the New Testament?
A:No. The earliest written narrative of Jesus of Nazareth was Mark's Gospel, but this was not written until about 70 CE. The other New Testament gospels do not provide independent witness, since it is now acknowledged that they were based on Mark's Gospel, either directly (Matthew, Luke) or indirectly (John). The Jewish historian Josephus mentions Jesus, but only to say that theChristians believed in him.Since Mark's Gospel is scarcely contemporary, there is really no contemporary record of Jesus. Paul, in his epistles seems not to have been aware that Jesus was a man who had lived and died only a few years earlier in Palestine.
