Top 10 Mystery Of Christ Our Life You Need To Know | Jesus Of Nazareth

1. Where was Jesus Christ from 13 to 29 ?

Jesus was born in Bethlehem to Mary, the woman of a Jewish carpenter. When Jesus turned 12, he stayed in Jerusalem for two days and bandied knowledge with the preachers. Nobody knows where he went at the age of 13. What he did between the age of 13 to 30 is a matter of riddle or mystery.Nothing is mentioned in the Bible about these times.

At the age of 30, he took initiation from Yohanna(John) in Jerusalem. After initiation, he started preaching people. According to utmost of the scholars, Lord Jesus reached Jerusalem by riding on a jackass and there a conspiracy was incubated to discipline him. Eventually, he was caught by his opponents and hanged on the cross. At that time his age was about 33 years.

Jesus entered Jerusalem on Sunday. This day is called 'Palm Sunday'. He was crucified on Friday hence it is called 'Good Friday' and on Sunday only one woman (Mary Magdalene) saw him alive near his grave. This event of living sighting is celebrated as 'Easter'. After that Jesus was never seen again in the Jewish kingdom.

2. Is December 25 the birthday of Jesus Christ ?

According to a report published recently on BBC, there is no consensus on when Jesus was born. Some theologians believe that he was born in the spring, because it is mentioned that when Jesus was born, the shepherds were taking care of their flocks in the plains. If it was December winter at that time, they would have taken shelter somewhere.

And if the shepherds were taking care of the sheep during the mating season, they would be busy separating the sheep from the herd that had mated. Had it been so, it would have been autumn time. But there is no date mentioned in the Bible for the birth of Jesus.

According to historians, since Roman times, there has been a practice of partying fiercely at the end of December as a Pagan tradition. Christians also adopted the same practice and named it 'Christmas'.

3. What was the face of Jesus Christ like ?

Jesus Christ is often depicted as a handsome blond man in pictures, but is it true? According to a BBC report published in 2001, Looking for the historical Jesus, after years of research and hard work, forensic scientist Richard Neave has presented the model of the face of Jesus Christ to the world.

This model of Christ's face is quite different from the images currently seen. Richard researched 3 skulls found at Israeli archaeological sites and combined them with all the scales that were written about the face of Jesus.

Richard Neave depicts Jesus as a traditional Middle Eastern Jew. His face resembles that of the people of the city of Galilee in northern Israel. The expert's research team has created a new face by combining the faces of many famous people such as Philip II of Macedonia, Father of Alexander the Great and King Midas of Phrygia.

He took a Jewish skull from an Israeli archaeologist and created X-ray slices of the skull. Then with the help of computer, muscles and skin were added to it. The team grew a beard and kept the hair on his head short. It was curly hair. In fact, traditional Jewish attire is of this type.

The team believes that the length of Jesus would have been above 5 feet. According to this new face of Jesus, his face is dark wheat in color with large, black eyes, short curly black hair and a bushy beard. Although experts do not claim that this will be the face of Jesus Christ, but it can definitely be the closest face to his face.

4. Did Jesus Christ live in India ?

Many people claim that He did go to the cross but did not die. He was about 33 years old when he was crucified. Some researchers believe that he returned to the Buddhist monastery in Kashmir, India, where he had studied between the ages of 13 and 29, and spent the rest of his life there. Recently a report has also been published on BBC regarding his Samadhi in Kashmir.

According to the report, a building in the old city of Srinagar is known as 'Roza Bal'. This "Roza Bal" is on a street corner and is a simple stone building with a tomb where the body of Jesus Christ is kept. The situation is grim in a narrow lane in Srinagar's Khanyar area.

The tomb is officially the grave of Yuza Asaf, a medieval Muslim dominie, but a large number of people believe that it's the tomb or tomb of Jesus of Nazareth.

The first description of Jesus' stay in India was made in 1894 by Russian Nicholas Latovich. He wandered in India and Tibet for 40 times. During this, he learned Pali language and grounded on his exploration wrote a book named,' The Unknown Life of Jesus Christ' in which he proved that Hazrat Isa had spent his anonymous days in Ladakh and Kashmir.

According to Islamic beliefs, it's also believed that a man of his appearance was crucified.

5. Did Jesus Christ have a wife and two children ?

According to a new research, Jesus married his disciple Mary Magdalene, with whom he also had two children. A report published in the British daily 'The Independent' quoted 'The Sunday Times' as saying that a 1500-year-old document has been found in the British Library in which a claim is made that Jesus Christ not only married Mary but also have two children.

Professor Barrie Wilson and author Simcha Jacobovici took months to translate this document, known as the 'Lost Gospel', from the Aramaic language. They have claimed that Mary Magdalene is the wife of Jesus Christ. Even before this, Mary has been mentioned frequently in the books written about Jesus Christ and she has been present in important moments of the life of Jesus Christ.

The translated book is published by Pegasus Publications. The church compared it to Dan Brown's 2003 novel The Vinci Code, which dealt with the relationship between Mary and Jesus Christ. Although the Church considers it false.

6. Was Jesus Christ a devotee of Krishna ?

Louis Jacolliot wrote in 1869 AD in one of his books 'The Bible in India' (The Bible in India, or the Life of Jezeus Christna) that Jesus Christ and Lord Krishna were one. Louis Jacoliet was a French writer and lawyer. He has presented a comparative study on Krishna and Christ in his book. Regarding the word 'Jesus', Lewis has said that Christ has also been given the name 'Jesus' by his followers. It means 'original element' in Sanskrit.

He has also said in his book that the word 'Christ' is a variation of Krishna, although he used the word 'Krisna' instead of Krishna. In India, Krishna is called Krishna only in the villages. This Krishna became Christ and Christianity in Europe. Later on he became a Christian. According to Lewis, Jesus Christ stayed in the temple of Lord Jagannath during his visit to India.

Nicholas Notovich, a Russian explorer, lived in India for a few years and wrote a book titled 'The Unknown Life of Jesus Christ' in French based on the book 'The Life of Saint Isa' kept in the ancient Hemis Buddhist Ashram.
