Caesar's Messiah: The Roman Conspiracy to Invent Jesus Page #5
So, this idea that the Gospels are
reliable testimony is patent nonsense.
Why are the Gospels called Gospels?
That's a critical question. Well,
Gospel in Greek is "Evangelion".
And it means good news
of military victory.
Whose military victory are we
celebrating here in these Gospels?
Well, seems to me that
we're celebrating, clearly,
the Roman military victory, because
these events:
the Battle of Gadara,the Battle of the Lake of Galilee,
the successful Battle of Jerusalem,
these are battles that the Romans won.
Why are the Gospels celebrating
battles that the Jews lost
written by the Jews?
The fact that the Gospels
are known to us in Greek
and not in Aramaic or Hebrew is, I
think, just evidence of their ownership.
They were not written by
any followers of Jesus,
who would have surely spoken Aramaic.
And if they had been
fishermen and simple folk,
they would not have had the
literate skills to write them anyway.
If we look closely, there
actually are clues in the Gospels
that point to who the true authors were.
A lot of the Christian
literature advocates
turning away from the Jewish
law and obeying Roman law.
All this fits perfectly into
Roman propaganda purposes.
And then you have, in general, the
portrayal of Jesus as the peaceful Jew,
who was wondering around in what is
depicted as a sort of pastural scenes,
talking to fishermen and farmers
and so forth, when, in fact,
this is a war zone. Judea is a war zone.
And you ask yourself: why is
it not portrayed as a war zone?
(?) ??? they really had it ???. ??? they have Jesus saying
'Render unto Caesar what is Caesar's',
which is basically in response
Whose benefit would that be?
So blatantly obvius.
The perception of Roman
characters in the Gospels,
they're all interpreted in a
favourable light. They are pro-Roman.
They do not depict the Romans as the
forces of evil. They reverse that.
It's the Jews who become
the forces of darkness.
It's very striking that
various passages in the Gospels
refer to the Jews as some people
separate from the heroes
of Jesus and his disciples.
The Jews are those who object.
The Jews are those who try
Now, that gives us a clue, certainly, to
who were the true authors of this book.
They are works of literature
created by people who
are trained in Jewish literature,
but whose values are pro-Roman.
promote antisemitism
and so they arranjed the story of
the beloved man-God Jesus Christ
to appear as if the Jews
had brought about his death.
Because of this,
the Jews would have to suffer
antisemitism throughout history.
So, this was a piece of work
that could not have been done
except by a fairly stablished literary
team, such as the literary team
that was in Rome actually
writing the books of Josephus.
I mean, that was written
by a literary team
and it was written as one of
the atempts to give prominence
(?) to the Flavian Caesars which the Gospels ??? so do.
So, it is extremely likely that
the Gospels, as a form of epic
designed to magnify
alegorically the Roman Caesars,
is also written at the court
of the Flavian Emperors.
But the Jesus story
takes place many decades
before the Flavians came to power,
why would the Flavians create a work
about a Jewish messiah that
wasn't even from their own era?
The Gospels were very
precisely backdated 40 years.
Jesus's ministry was started
in 30 CE, exactly 40 years
from the destruction of the temple.
His ministry ends at Passover
33 CE, which is 40 years before
the end of the Jewish-Roman
war, which occurred at Passover,
in 73 CE, with the
famous battle of Massada.
The Gospels are backdated into
that is to say before
the first Jewish war,
which is to say in the
Julio-Claudian period.
But this is typical of Flavian literature.
It's a Flavian tecnique.
What they do is they backdate the
story into the period of their enemies,
namely the Julio-Claudians.
And so, generation after
generation of Christian scholar,
and even secular historians,
go hunting, in the Julio-Claudian period,
for the origins of the Gospels.
They don't really find
any anwsers there.
There are allusions in the Gospels
to the destruction of the temple.
The most reasonable answer
to that is that these texts
DESTRUCTION OF THE JEWISH TEMPLE 70 CE
destruction of the temple.
DESTRUCTION OF THE JEWISH TEMPLE 70 CE
That is to say, in the Flavian period,
after the change of dynasty.
This backdating of the
story of Jesus Christ,
40 years earlier from the time the
Gospels may actually have been written,
explains why many of the
prophecies of Jesus came true
within exactly 40 years.
What does this all add up to?
In my view,
the thing that is most significant
is the research by Joseph Atwill,
in his book "Caesar's Messiah",
which sugests that the Gospels
were actually created as works
of Roman propaganda at the
end of the Roman-Jewish war,
under the reign of Flavian emperors,
that is Titus Caesar
and Vespasian Caesar.
And if you end up worshipping Jesus,
what you really end up doing is
worshipping Caesar in disguise.
This may have been how the
Flavians finally got the Jews
to worship Caesar as a god:
a messiah more to the Roman's liking.
But is there any actual
history to this character?
Where did he really come from?
The mistery to me begans
with his very name.
In Greek, Jesus means savior
and Christ means the messiah.
JESUS - SAVIOR, CHRIST - MESSIAH
This didn't strike me as something
JESUS - SAVIOR, CHRIST - MESSIAH
These two words are already
important within Judaism
before Jesus Christ supposedly existed.
Major biblical figures,
to a Jewish Greek-speaking populace,
DAVID - THE CHRIS would already be called Christ.
acclimated to accepting this title.
So, it isn't just a unique name of a
single person that just suddenly pop up.
What did we actually know
about Jesus Christ, the man?
be historically defended.
I don't think there's any evidence that
we can extend to that particular Jesus.
So, when you actually set out to
investigate the historical Jesus,
as opposed to the Christ of faith,
you very abruptally enter a void.
You find that whereas you might
imagine the core details of Jesus
are readily known and accessible, you
actually discover there's no such thing.
Further, there've never been
any archeological evidence
had ever been discover.
You cannot find an established
and incontrovertible
biography of Jesus at all.
It doesn't exist.
zone of early Christian belief.
What we have here is not
a movement that's grown
on the accretion of legends
