Ooo could you elaborate on the historical version? I'm curious
We don't know a WHOLE lot about historical Jesus, but we know that there was definitely some Hebrew dude named "Jesus" living in Palestine (specifically Galilei/al-Jalīl), that he lived close to around the era that Christian Jesus did, and that he was causing some problems for the local government, and was definitely crucified.
Specific details of his life and the historical accuracy of events & interpretations of the Bible are very debated and discussed on what exactly might have happened, but the first paragraph are essentially all the basics of what is generally agreed upon about information on historical Jesus based on evidence.
What i find so interesting is just that I wonder what this guy was ACTUALLY doing to have spawned a whole religion because, despite what angle you take or what religion you are, historical Jesus and his activities to make people believe he was the son of God (which, he may not even have said this or believed this about himself) makes me wonder about it. I love history, so naturally i like the historical angle, and the idea of just some guy causing such a ruckus at that time is just waaay cooler to me than an actual "son" of God.
There's a whole video on historical Jesus here if you're interested
