Historians usually accept that a person mentioned in ancient texts really did exist, unless there is good reason to believe otherwise. Jesus is mentioned in the gospels, so most historians accept by default that he existed, although there is no actual proof of his existence. Nevertheless, a growing minority of historians are beginning to question the historicity of Jesus of Nazareth.
Yes, the crucifixion of Jesus is a historical event, although the details are obviously boggled around with religious ideas, so separating hard fact from religious testament is difficult. Some historians doubt the existence of a historical Jesus, but most accept that he existed at least as a historic figure even they do not necessarily accept him as the son of god. Tried to stay objective here. Hopedit helped.
The bible is the best source for information about the existence of Jesus.
The term BC - created within the Julian and Gregorian calendars... to mark the period before the birth of Jesus. The term AD - marks the period after the death of Jesus... up to today. The terms were not created at the time of Jesus' existence - but long afterwards (circa 525 AD).

Job and Jesus are never mentioned together in the Bible.
It is easier to deal first with Adam and Eve, as they clearly were not real. Not only is there no evidence for their existence, the scientific and historical evidence we do have is contrary to their existence.Whether Jesus was real can be broken down into two separate questions. First, did Jesus exist? Second, did Jesus perform miracles and was he the son of God?The existence of the gospels does not resolve these issues. However, most historians assume that Jesus probably did live some time around the first century CE, although there is no evidence for him. There is no reason to believe he performed miracles and no reason to believe he was the son of God.
I doubt it.

by Remus and Romulus ++ That's the legend. I doubt historians believe it!
The Bible alone shows that Jesus is the Son of God and Saviour. If there is any doubt about the factual truth of the Bible, then there is doubt about Jesus as the Son of God and Saviour.
Historians can learn about the life and teachings of Jesus from the gospels, which are accounts of his life written by his followers. These texts provide insights into his teachings, miracles, and interactions with others. While they are considered religious texts, historians can analyze them to understand the historical context in which Jesus lived and the impact of his teachings on society.
The life of Jesus Christ was not noted by historians of that time (admittedly, there were not many historians at that period of history). Only the gospels of the New Testament record the life of Jesus, and those were written for religious rather than historical purposes. There is still some debate among historians, as to whether Jesus did, as you say, walk on this Earth, or whether he is a fictional character.
