That's interesting but he's reporting hearsay. He doesn't actually talk
about miracles so there's no evidence of divinity.



He did mention the resurection, I'd call that a miracle.

I didn't see a description of his being dead for days and then coming to
life. I just saw a reference to his being alive for 3 days on the cross.
Did I miss it?

However, since Josephus was borne after Jesus died, his reports aren't quite
contemporary. Further, his very brief description of the Christians in the
middle of a quite extensive book is more like "faint praise."


Of course there were
probably lots of teachers that could have filled that description. If he
had known him it first hand and included corroborating evidence first
hand that would have been good. What concerns me is why are the contents
of the dead sea scrolls being kept secret?



Since 1991 photos of the scrolls have been available to all scholars, with no
publication restrictions.


That's not what I saw in a recent documentary. Are there pictures of
them on the web or scraps that reveal nothing?
