- The overwhelming consensus up through the middle of the nineteenth century was that Matthew was written first. “For more than a century after that it became the almost unquestioned scholarly consensus that Mark came first and that Matthew and Luke drew on Mark and on . . .

Jan 14, 2024 · The title “Christ” comes from the Greek word Christos, meaning “Anointed One”.

Unlike mythical figures unfettered by time and history -- such as the gods of India, Rome, Greece, the Celts, and the Norsemen -- Jesus' story is firmly set in history. Consider this passage: "In the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar -- when Pontius Pilate was governor of Judea, Herod tetrarch of Galilee, his brother Philip tetrarch of...
A number of early non-Christian documents refer to Jesus as an historical person as well: Jewish historian Josephus (early second century AD) has two mentions of Jesus, though the first appears to have been tampered with by later Christian scribes, since Josephus himself did not pretend to be a Christian.The second quotation, however, is likely to ...
The history of Jesus begins with his given name, told to Mary at his conception by an angel, and confirmed to Joseph in a dream. In Greek, Jesus' name isIēsous, but its origin is from Hebrew. In Hebrew "Jesus" is Yēshūa', a shortened form of Joshua (Yehôshûa'), who was one of Israel's most celebrated heroes. Many Jewish boys in Jesus' day were name...
The name Jesus is used alone many times, but also in various combinations that we'll consider later: 1. Jesus(Matthew 1:21, 25; 1 Thessalonians 1:10) 2. Jesus Christ our Lord(Romans 1:3; Romans 6:11; Romans 6:23; 1 Corinthians 1:9; 7:25) 3. Jesus Christ our Savior(Titus 3:6) 4. Jesus Christ(Matthew 1:1; John 1:17; John 17:3; Acts 2:38; Acts 4:10; A...
Beyond his given name, Jesus is known by his parentage and his family. Though both Matthew and Luke tell us that Jesus was conceived by the Holy Spirit, not by Joseph (Luke 1:35; Matthew 1:21), those who weren't privy to the inside story, saw Jesus as the Son of Joseph. Thus he is called, "Jesus, the son of Joseph" (Luke 3:23; John 1:45; 6:42) and ...
Two genealogies of Jesus are provided, one in Matthew 1:1-17 and the other in Luke 3:23-38. In Matthew, Jesus' descent from David is traced through David's son Solomon, with Jacob given as the name of Joseph's father. In Luke, Jesus' descent is traced through David's son Nathan, with Heli given as the name of Joseph's father. Though there are sever...
When Jesus taught in his hometown of Nazareth, he is referred to (in disbelief) as "the carpenter." "Isn't this the carpenter? Isn't this Mary's son and the brother of James, Joseph, Judas and Simon? Aren't his sisters here with us?" (Mark 6:3) We know from later in Matthew's gospel that Joseph was a carpenter by trade (Matthew 13:55). But the town...
According to Luke 2:1-7, Mary and Joseph are originally from Nazareth, but go to Bethlehem to enroll in a government-mandated census. While there, Jesus is born. They remain in Bethlehem for a couple of years, perhaps because their marriage after Mary's pregnancy is a kind of scandal. In Bethlehem, they find and worship Jesus. And because King Hero...
It was important that Jesus be born in Bethlehem and raised in Galilee to fulfill important messianic prophecies. Micah prophesies about 700 BC, "But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah, though you are small among the clans of Judah, out of you will come for me one who will be ruler over Israel, whose origins are from of old, from ancient times." (Micah 5:2) ...
