It's refreshing to hear someone articulate what we DON'T know, as opposed to all the know-it-alls we hear all the time.

Very good guest! Very articulate and clear-spoken. Great teacher.

This was a great interview and Dr. Wilson is so right about this. I would even argue the situation is worse than what he describes. But first, he makes a very important point about the sources. We don't know who wrote them! Or when, where or why. These are all important questions historians ask when assessing historical sources, and a big difference between "Bible scholars" and real historians. We have important historical works where we know who the author was and when they were published, whether they were by Plutarch, Josephus or Tacitus. The more we know about a source and its author the more valuable it is for historians. Knowing "The Jewish War" was written by Josephus is important, as we know he was actually there, but also that he played a part and what his sympathies were. For the gospels we have almost no information at all, only later traditions that are not reliable. I wish more scholars would be as honest and cautious as Dr. Wilson. Too many just assume and assert when in reality we don't know. In my opinion any scholar who talks about an "M" or "L" source is really just an apologist as these are just made up sources whose only purpose is to place them as early in time as possible. Because these are scholars who *need* the gospels to be eye witness accounts and contain information about a historical Jesus. But the problem for them is that we know the authors of "Matthew" and "Luke" used "Mark" as a source, which is widely agreed on by the vast majority of scholars today. Already we have a problem, because why would any eye witness need to plagiarize someone else's account of Jesus? And we know "Mark" was written after the Jewish War and the destruction of the Temple. Which means it was written sometime after 70 AD. Here we have the oldest gospel already being at least 40 years after when we think Jesus died, and the rest are even older. Not only that, but "after 70 AD" doesn't mean it was written that year, it could be *any year* after 70, including 80, 90, 100, 110 etc. Yet you will almost always hear scholars claim that "Mark" was written *in* 70 AD, which there simply is no evidence for at all. This just shows the bias of these scholars who so desperately need the gospels to be as close in time as possible to keep the idea that they contain eye witness information. But there really is no evidence for when "Mark" was written. At all. So when "Matthew" and "Luke" are later than "Mark", and disagreeing with "Mark", this opens the possibility of them not even existing in the first century and only being written in the early second century. And why would we believe anything they say about Jesus if they are written almost a century later? Well, if they can't even agree on what his dying words were I would already be very suspicious, but that's just me. What the bible scholars do which in my opinion just shows their bias is to invent out of thin air sources like "Q", "M" and "L". I don't know about any other historical document where historians out of thin air have incvented "earlier sources" where none are mentioned. The purpose of this is to get earlier sources, closer to the life of Jesus. And wouldn't you know, scholars date the "Q" document they have invented to be *before* the Jewish War. Even though every single line in it is taken from gospels we know are written *after* 70 AD. The arguments for "Q" are also very weak and easy to dismantle. Like the claim the author of "Luke" didn't know "Matthew" and the author of "Matthew" didn't know "Luke". Or that "they wouldn't have", like modern scholars knew Luke personally and knows how he would have thought. It's crazy really how weak the case for "Q" is yet so many scholars cling to it. Even worse is the "M" source implying the author of "Matthew" was incapable of coming up with anything himself and everything had to come from an earlier source (that noone else in the world knew about? Come on). In essence: we don't like what the data tells us, so we change the data. Be very careful when listening to biblical scholars and beware of bullshit claims that they have no way of knowing. Anyone using "M", "L" and "Q" as "evidence" I would take with a spoon of salt because they are clearly biased and are not following honest historical methods. So to make matters even worse than what Dr. Wilson has already showed, there is really no reason to think there was a Q or any other pre-70 gospel. And there may not even have been any gospels at all written until the very end of the first century. Note how not only the letters of Paul but also other early Christian documents show no knowledge of the gospel stories. Which in my opinion makes the oral tradition theories unlikely, because how would someone like Paul not know these stories then? It doesn't make sense. After the first gospel is written it doesn't take long before there are many of them, all making some changes of their own. It seems clear to me that "Matthew" was supposed to replace "Mark", not complement it, and the same with "Luke". So if these gospel stories were unknown for at the first 40-60 years after the death of Jesus how can we think any of it is true? Can we really know anything at all about a historical Jesus? I don't think we can. In fact I don't even think there is evidence that anyone called him "Jesus of Nazareth" until this line in "Matthew" was written: "He went and dwelt in a town called Nazareth, so that what had been spoken through the prophets might be fulfilled, “He shall be called a Nazorean.”. Can we really say anything at all with any certainty about the supposed historical character of Jesus? Yet the scholars claim it is absolutely 100% without a doubt guaranteed that there at least *was* a historical Jesus. That seems to be the only thing that is certain. Or is it?

Right, the best explanation is that they were worshipping a crucified-by-Satan Jewish teacher-angel who never existed on Earth. There couldn’t have been any stories about this angel before the gospels because we know that stories about their gods were not important to people in antiquity. They just worshipped for high-minded philosophical reasons like Paul’s. They’re is ZERO evidence of oral stories so the rational thing is to assume they did not exist until one day Mark woke up and thought “goodness me I am worshipping a deity I know literally nothing about!!! I must correct this by making up a story from thin air!!!”. I am so sick of these biased BIBLICAL scholars (lol isn’t that an oxymoron???? Am i right???)(NOT historians) who think a Jesus actually existed. An apocalyptic prophet being crucified by Rome???? Please.

I think that the reason that we can’t nail down a coherent biography of Jesus is because the authors of the scriptures planned it that way. They send us down trails that are a dead end and present narratives that are contradictory. For example we are told in one gospel that the angel Gabriel announced to Mary that she would birth the Messiah but in another gospel she and Jesus’s brothers declared that he is insane. How does one get from the Annunciation by Gabriel to declaring YOUR Messiah insane?

To the point about disagreement among gospel writers and Mary's reaction to Jesus. Observe that in Mark's gospel there is no annunciation and nativity story, and therefore Mary could come to whatever conclusion seemed plausible to her, about her son's behavior, and mission; on the other hand in Matthew's and Luke's versions of events, she had been told his identity and mission by an angel, and therefore would not have come to the conclusion that he was a madman.

So clear, so efficient, so precise and with great arguments. I loved the structure of the presentation, the way he sets up the issue and works around it, layer after layer, pealing it like an onion. Great rhetorical skills. I am jealous.

I recently listened to a lecture in which breaks down the historical life of Jesus. There was a very good argument that Jesus was never crucified. I had always accepted the historical birth and crucifixion as being viable but after stepping back from the situation and looking at it more critically I admit that the crucifixion narrative is highly non-historical. When you actually read the writing of those who knew of Pilate you will see that the entire narratives from the gospel accounts are completely implausible. When you add this to the fact that the gospel accounts are not eye witnesses and all contradict each other it adds to the implausibility. When you break down the multiple narratives you find out that you do not meet the criteria of either multiple attestation nor of embarrassment. In fact there isn't any solid reason to believe that it actually happened from a historical point of view. I still think (although I am not 100% convinced) that there was a historical Jesus. But I am equally convinced that he was not crucified by the Romans.

Being a Christian since a young child until only recently at age 50 going to a Christian organization with an extensive library of commentaries on the old and new testament changed my belief system 100%.Watching guests like Barrie Wilson and knowing everything I've studied meticulously on this subject I only have one opinion = Jesus never intended to start a new religion and that's a fact.The reason why there are so many contradictions on his teachings is because the individual writer was lying about what Jesus taught instead promoting their own political agenda.

Luke did not write what he wanted but what GOD moved him to write.

No one has presented any evidence greater than the Gospels themselves. If you want to know about Jesus's life, read the Gospels. They are the best evidence.

Dr. Wilson is very correct . And add to this , even if we knew exactly what Jesus said , we do not know if he thinks it applies to gentiles. The Jewish law "Very specifically says" a gentile cannot be punished for not following the Jewish Law . Even if we knew Jesus' exact view of the Jewish religion it does not at all prove he thought gentiles are bound by it. One important exception to the confusion though I see , if we read Paul's letters and the writings of the early church who knew him personally "Nobody " says "God is love" which somebody would have said if that was the "total message " that Jesus' conveyed. So a great deal of modern Christian theology cannot be what he taught,

To me everything is shaky since everything come from gospel that are "stories". We can't assume anything. He may even never existed for all we know. The premises are all faulty from the beginning. But we have letters from Paul and a sect in Judea.

That was excellent. Dr. Wilson was serving up facts. Jacob asked a pile of good questions. And, for me, the conclusion is always the same: The only 'testament' should be a testament to human imagination. The giant ball of wax that is religion is always based on some pretty flimsy stuff.

Reconstructing anyone's life is near impossible . Whether he intended Christianity is the biggest question . But better directed at reconstructing Paul's life who never met Jesus.

Well, tbh reconstructing the life of anyone of us living today is tricky. Your own adult life you have some scattered memories of, but ofthen mixed up, and most episodes forgotten. Your childhood is depending on your parents memories, and they only knows the part when they were present, a lot of times they were not, and when your parents are gone most of that info is gone. How much of your own sayings can you remember accurately? When you read your daily news from two different media they are mostly different if they did not quote each other or both quoted ”Reuters”. TBH it is more convincing that sources differ than when they are mostly ”copy paste” idrntical.

Just looking at the title so far. Figuring that the title refers to Jesus' life on earth so far, I'll just chime in that the past life is not such a big deal to reconstruct when we have the coming life on earth of Jesus to look forward to, when we get to live out our lives with him in real time, not just study the past.

If they don’t know the authors of the New Testament than how can they date when they were written??

Lots of reasons here why we can't reconstruct Jesus life .... But I'd say most scholars would say there are many events and teachings that are quite likely historical, thereby allowing us to reconstruct quite a lot of Jesus life with some degree of confidence. Yes it's problematic and challenging but the first 38 minutes of this video suggest it's a lost cause and I don't think that's the case.

Because Jesus didn't exist as described in the bible/gospels . Those are just religious propaganda meant to put the bases of the religion . Jesus, if he existed historically , has not performed miracles or was of divine origin . And without these "qualities" there is no base for a religion .

I've watched some more of this since yesterday. It pains me that so many Gentile Christians think Jesus accomplished all of his Messianic mission at his first coming. It is obvious from the Bible that there is a lot more prophecy that awaits fulfillment when the Messiah comes in the future. It will be this same Messiah Jesus, but the things he will do will be far different from the things he did at his first coming. Many of the Jewish expectations of the Second Temple period were accurate, because they are based on God's Word through the prophets. Jesus himself echoed those words, and Jesus himself let people know that it would be a long time between his first coming and the fulfillment of the Messianic prophecies. Other Jewish expectations of the Messiah from the Second Temple period were selfish and/or hateful misreads of the prophetic words, and those never will come to pass. Jesus worked hard to set straight that he had come for the salvation of the Gentiles as well, and that was not well received. The Apostle Paul caught on to this, and knew by the end of his life which expectations of Jesus were godly - be they of past fulfillment or future fulfillment - and which ones actually were a betrayal of God's purposes for the world.

This guy gets it! Basically his thesis is that Paul stole the historical Jesus's identity and used it to create a mythical Jesus, a celestial one (except when he says Jesus materialized on Earth in some places and was born a Jew of the line of David in others). Then the gospel writers euhemerised this Jesus who never existed with 4 canonical and multiple other stories that all contradict each other.

The religion was hijacked by Rome, the Gospel was broken up scrambled adulterated into a bunch of competing narratives. Later four of those adulterated gospels were canonized with falsely ascribed authorship and a Gnosticism cover-story. It was the finding of an original Gospel of Jesus scroll in Jerusalem that gained the Knights Templar power over the Church and their eventual undoing when the church finally retaliated against them.

@@abdar-rahman6965 a father with 2 sons ,a warrior with a 2 horned helmet, or one 'dragon' with 2 horns is a 'triune' thing. I'm not talking 'trinity' here. dhul Qarnain's horns are malik + sadiq , majui + jajui , Magog + Gog, a magician and a juggler not monsters to be afraid of. dhul Qarnain = Cornelius in the bible. They compare with; EL-oh (allah) Mercury Gabriel messenger Hermes treasure-bearer gold malik Mars Michael warrior Apollos weapon-bearer mirrh sadiq Venus Samael priest Pan light-bearer incense There are in total 8 dwelling lights up in the sky what the ancients named the lesser gods, the tiny-people, the essenes, the essentials from the basics (beginning, creation) aka the ebionites (the poor) because they give poor light. They are watchers and wittnesses. who match up with precious stones, arch-angels and even with some colors. The 'Huqoq elephant mosaic' ( here on YT ) gives a nice picture of the ebionites and the 'people of Ad' a story what is also in the quran, very interesting stuff you be warned, now I'm very curious what is your opinion on this historical scene .

Historical materialist description of Jesus accomplishes nothing. Pretending the vast corpus of extant Hebrew, Greek, Aramaic etc. library on the subject of the God of Israel is of no interest is quixotic.

just another opinion

it is written, if everything Jesus did was written down, the world could not contain the books: WHY? Because we are all the LIVING BOOKS of "HIS-TORY": Jesus Christ is the FULL STATURE OF THE INNER MAN of our heart: He is born through the heart, dies at the place of our skull (KETER/CROWN OF LIFE) and that HOLY OIL cleanses our whole SOUL from the dead bone of Adam to the whole dead men's bones of the WHOLE HOUSE OF ISRAEL: HOW? through PROPHECY: The Bible is the STORY OF GOD AND ADAM, from first to Last, who falls and is resurrected again by the MESSIAH RISING IN US:

Jesus (NAME OF CHRIST when Christ is born through our heart (lain in a manger, food for beasts): This is the circumcision of the heart making it a "JEW": Abraham saw my day and was glad: Jesus Christ yesterday, TODAY, and forever!) He always works the same way in all his people. The reason he is born in a manger is because there is no ROOM in the "INN" (inner court, Holy place, the heart of Israel): Bethlehem (house of bread) is the place Christ must correct: I could tell you everything but its too much right now: Jesus Christ WITHIN THE HEART, transforms the heart from a beast to a MAN: Abraham's covenant, 3 beasts are circumcised: Three levels of the heart after Christ is born through the 1/4 part, the GOOD GROUND of the heart: MARK 4, John 16:

Wilson is a very poor historian.

An "amazing" scholar who has never learned that the whole Bible, including the New Testament, is not a textbook of history and he does not know for sure that even any textbook of any history is already an interpretation of data: archeological, scriptural, now also the results of radioactive testing! 18:09- he questioned the death of Jesus and the reason for it (but Mk 15:26 the first written title for Jesus "the King of Jews" - also in all other Gospels) was never used by Christians; why there? 29:19- if Mark relied on Paul why Mark's Jesus is weak that failed to cure a blind man and called his disciples idiots -that is never found in other gospels. What a Ph.D. fool who does not know the work of other scholars in the field.
