Proverbs 8:34-36 Blessed is the man who hears me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at my door posts. For whoever finds me finds life, and will obtain favor from Yahweh. But he who sins against me wrongs his own soul. All those who hate me love death.” Psalm 84: 11 For Yahweh God is a sun and a shield. Yahweh will give grace and glory. He withholds no good thing from those who walk blamelessly. 12 Yahweh of Armies, blessed is the man who trusts in you. 1 John 5:5 Now who is the one overcoming the world, except the one believing that Jesus is the Son of God?

Evidence confirms Jesus crucifixion outside the Bible:
 The Babylonian Talmud.
I so often read people saying there is no evidence of Jesus, except what is written in the Bible.

Here is an example from one of many comment's left on my video.
JESUS NEVER EXISTED. JESUS WAS COPIED FROM MYTHS WHICH YOU WILL CALL MYTHS. THE SAME STORY WRITTEN 500 YEARS AFTER THE MYTH OF JESUS BEGAN TO BE MADE UP THE BIBLE WAS WRITTEN. 

The fact is.
When we seek with an open mind, and are interested in learning the truth, we discover the truth, as Jesus said we would in Matthew 7:7.

We also discover there is more evidence of Jesus life, death, and crucifixion, than any person who has ever lived.

There are literally 100's of references and testimonies from historian's and people not mentioned or connected to the Bible in anyway, who yet witness and confirm Jesus Christ in some way.

In my previous articles, we recently looked at just some of the many non-Christian confirmation's of the crucifixion and life of Jesus by Tacitus, and Thallus the historian, and many people outside the Bible, who confirm Christianity like Pliny The Younger, Suetonius, Emperor Trajan which we will read about next week, and now: The Babylonian Talmud we will briefly look at now.

In short, The Babylonian Talmud also has references to Jesus Christ by Jewish writers who did not follow Jesus, who in fact mostly hated Him and only wanted Jesus dead, hidden and out the way, including the evidence of Him, deleted.

Yet in this Babylonian Talmud with the Jewish laws and traditions, they write the opposite by supplying us with info of worthy attention and confirmation of Jesus Christ, as was written in the Gospels.

Let's look at some of them from the Wikipedia site.

Execution .
Scholars have identified passages that mention Jesus in the context of his execution:
  • Babylonian  Sanhedrin 43a-b -"on the eve of Passover they hanged Jesus the Nazarene" (Editions or MSs: Herzog 1, Karlsruhe 2)
  • Babylonian Sanhedrin 43a-b - "Jesus the Nazarene is going forth to be stoned" (Editions or MSs: Herzog 1, Firenze II.1.8-9, Karlsruhe 2)
  • Babylonian Sanhedrin 43a-b - "Do you suppose Jesus the Nazarene was one for whom a defense could be made?" (Editions or MSs: Herzog 1, Firenze II.1.8-9, Karlsruhe 2 )
  • Babylonian Sanhedrin 43a-b - "With Jesus the Nazarene it was different" (Editions or MSs: Herzog 1, Firenze II.1.8-9, Karlsruhe 2)
The complete passage is: "On (Sabbath eve and) the eve of Passover Jesus the Nazarene was hanged and a herald went forth before him forty days heralding, 'Jesus the Nazarene is going forth to be stoned because he practiced sorcery and instigated and seduced Israel to idolatry. Whoever knows anything in defense may come and state it.' But since they did not find anything in his defense they hanged him on (Sabbath eve and) the eve of Passover. Ulla said: Do you suppose that Jesus the Nazarene was one for whom a defense could be made? He was a mesit (someone who instigated Israel to idolatry), concerning whom the Merciful [God]says: Show him no compassion and do not shield him (Deut. 13:9). With Jesus the Nazarene it was different. For he was close to the government."[66] [91]
In the Florence manuscript of the Talmud (1177 CE) an addition is made to Sanhedrin 43a saying that Yeshu was hanged on the eve of the Sabbath.[92]
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Jesus in the Talmud 

As archaeology proves the Bible, ancient writings prove Jesus Christ outside the Bible.

I am Simon Brown. Amen.
