Did Jesus really exist? And what did ancient critics say about His miracles? In this episode of Under the Hood, Sam and Will explore historical evidence for Jesus outside the Bible, examining claims from famous skeptics like Bertrand Russell, Christopher Hitchens, and Richard Dawkins alongside ancient Jewish and Roman writings. Discover what the Babylonian Talmud and Roman critic Celsus said about Jesus, why some opponents accused Him of sorcery, and how accounts of His miracles appear in other religious traditions. Could the very people who opposed Christianity provide evidence for the historical Jesus? Join us as we go Under the Hood to uncover the history, examine the arguments, and explore the extraordinary claims surrounding Jesus Christ.
