In this episode, we delve into the complexities surrounding the historical figure of Jesus and his role in the formation of Christianity. Did Jesus really exist as a historical person, or is he a mythical figure shaped by later narratives? We’ll explore the humble beginnings of his movement, the lack of contemporary evidence about his life, and how his teachings were perceived in their time. From his apocalyptic messages to the radical reinterpretation of Jewish law, we examine the evolution of Jesus from a marginalized preacher to the foundation of a world religion. Join us as we unpack the intriguing questions about the man at the center of one of history’s most significant faiths.
