Josephus Mentions Jesus Twice
Jewish historian Flavius Josephus mentions Jesus in two passages of his “Antiquities of the Jews,” written around 93-94 CE. His references to “Jesus who was called Christ” and his execution under Pilate provide non-Christian confirmation of Jesus’ existence. Josephus also mentions James, “the brother of Jesus who was called Christ,” confirming details about Jesus’ family. These references from a Jewish historian validate central Gospel claims.
