Finding documented evidence of the historical reality of Jesus of Nazareth from Christian sources in their Jewish context is equivalent, by implication, to demonstrating the error of the mythologists who confuse the Jesus of messianic tradition with the divine Christ in Paul’s epistles.
This essay offers a new contextual reading of the core of the New Testament in order to identify the theological and narrative contradictions within each writing, and with one another.
The ideological nature of Christian sources as essentially antagonist and controversial literature allows us to identify its true existential reference, while rebuilding the radical duality between the Jesus of history and the Christ of faith.
The failed messianic pretender really existed, but there was never the divine Christ that Paul invented and was nurtured by ecclesiastical dogma. The partnership between Catholica Ecclesia and Romanum Imperium assured the hegemony of both in a close and aberrant symbiosis whereby a Messiah crucified for the crime of sedition against Caesar came to be adored and glorified throughout the Roman world as the one and true God.
