For jesus historicists, its often common to cite the references to Jesus in Josephus. Josephus is a very famous Jewish historian who actually lived in the first century (from 37-100 ce). Mythicists have been asking for contemporary accounts of a historical Jesus and Josephus seems to be a popular place to look (Josephus actually wasnt a contemporary, but I guess they figure its close enough). The jesus that most people talk about, of course is the one that was born around the year zero and died around the year 33. Josephus does mention Jesus, or actually multiple Jesus', but none of his authentic writing references the Jesus that all christians know and love. So today, we will be discussing Josephus on Jesus.

Who was Josephus?
Titus Flavius Josephus (37-100 AD), known as 'Josephus' was a first-century Romano-Jewish scholar. He was a historian and hagiographer, who was born in Jerusalem, then part of Roman Judea, to a father of priestly descent and a mother who claimed royal ancestry.
<br><br>
He initially fought against
the Romans during the First Jewish-Roman War as head of Jewish forces in Galilee, until surrendering in 67 CE to Roman forces led by Vespasian after the six-week siege of Jotapata. Josephus claimed the Jewish Messianic prophecies that initiated the First Roman-Jewish War made reference to Vespasian becoming Emperor of Rome. In response Vespasian decided to keep Josephus as a slave and presumably interpreter. <br><br> After Vespasian became Emperor in 69 CE, he granted Josephus his freedom, at which time Josephus assumed the emperor's family name of Flavius. Flavius Josephus fully defected to the Roman side and was granted Roman citizenship. He became an advisor and friend of Vespasian's son Titus, serving as his translator when Titus led the Siege of Jerusalem. |
