"Orang tentu berharap bahwa Tuhan Yesus Kristus akan cukup penting untuk menerima banyak pemberitahuan dalam literatur pada masanya, dan bahwa bahan biografi yang luas akan tersedia. Dia diamati oleh banyak orang, dan para pengikutnya sendiri berjumlah ratusan (1 Kor. 15: 6), yang saksinya masih hidup di pertengahan abad pertama. Faktanya, jumlah informasi mengenai dirinya relatif sedikit. Selain dari keempat Injil, dan beberapa kiasan yang tersebar di surat-surat, sejarah kontemporer hampir diam tentang dia."

One would naturally expect that the Lord Jesus Christ would be sufficiently important to receive ample notice in the literature of his time, and that extensive biographical material would be available. He was observed by multitudes of people, and his own followers numbered into the hundreds (1 Cor. 15:6), whose witness was still living in the middle of the first century. As a matter of fact, the amount of information concerning him is comparatively meager. Aside from the four Gospels, and a few scattered allusions in the epistles, contemporary history is almost silent concerning him.
