The sinful birth and the accursed death of Jesus!
According to traditions, Jesus was sinfully born, and when he died he was accursed by God! Many Christian commentators will malign me for writing these words about their saviour. But, I did not write them in the first place, I am just a conveyor of these words, written millennias before my birth. Yet, the same Christian who would, without blinking, condemn me, and even call me a blasphemer. Yes, a blasphemer for writing what religionists (Jewish/Christian) have written beforehand.
I was inspired by my friend and fellow commentator and author on Disqus, Δεσμώτης, in his latest Post, on the topic of Nativity. The facts are on the birth of Jesus, we find in the writings of the Christian church-father, Origen Adamantius (185-253). Which means that Christians of the time of Origen, and before, knew about the sinful birth of Jesus. Origen, in his rebuttal/attach on the Greek philosopher, Celsus, for his views of the virgin birth, Origen wrote: he accused Jesus of having “invented his birth from a virgin,” and upbraids Him with being “born in a certain Jewish village, of a poor woman of the country, who gained her subsistence by spinning, and who was turned out of doors by her husband, a carpenter by trade, because she was convicted of adultery; that after being driven away by her husband, and wandering about for a time, she disgracefully gave birth to Jesus, an illegitimate child, who having hired himself out as a servant in Egypt on account of his poverty, and having there acquired some miraculous powers, on which the Egyptians greatly pride themselves, returned to his own country, highly elated on account of them, and by means of these proclaimed himself a God.”…[Contra Celsum, BK I, ch.28, in addition, the last two paragraphs of BK I, ch.28 are repeated in Bk I, ch.38] Also in the link: http://www.earlychristianwritings.com/text/celsus3.html
According to the English scholar G.R.S. Mead (1863-1933) writing on Celsus, wrote: In this passage from Celsus we have precisely the main outline of the Talmud Jesus stories, and therefore an external proof that in his day (Celsus) at any rate (whenever that was, whether 150-175 or even 125-175). Stories precisely similar to the Talmud stories were the stock-in-trade Jewish objections to Christian dogmatic tradition.[G.R.S. Mead (1968), Did Jesus Live 100 B.C.?, P.129, University Books, New Hyde Park, New York]
The reader should note: that Celsus does not name the village Jesus supposedly was born in, neither does the church-father Origen, in the 3rd-century neither names the so-called village. Even Origen did not know the name Nazareth. With Christian subterfuge, we today know the placename as Nazareth, the village that theology invented. Even the name ‘Jesus of Nazareth’ is actually a bad translation of the original Greek ‘Jesous o Nazoraios.’ Anglicized: Nazarene/Nazorean (or Nazarite, Nazara, Nazorim), which has a meaning (Truth) quite unrelated to the placename.
Fabrications within the Bible.
The original gospel writers refrained from inventing a childhood, youth or early manhood for Jesus because it was not necessary to their central drama of a dying/reborn sun-god. But as we know, the story grew with the telling, particularly as the decades passed and the promised redeemer and judge failed to reappear. The re-writer of the Gospel of Mark, revising the text sometime between 140 CE and 150 CE, introduced the name of the city only once, in chapter one, with these words: “And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and was baptized by John at the Jordan.”— Mark I, 9.
Ironically, an indication that this sole reference to a town called Nazareth in Mark is a late, harmonization interpolation is to be found in the Gospel of Matthew. Copying the same baptism episode from an early edition of Mark, the author of Matthew makes no mention of Nazareth:
“Then Jesus came from Galilee to John at the Jordan to be baptized by him.” —Matthew 3.13.

Jesus, accursed by God! In Deuteronomy 21:22–23 we find the following law: a man guilty of a capital offence is put to death, and you hang him on a tree, you must not leave the body on the tree overnight. Be sure to bury it that same day, because anyone who is hung on a tree is a curse of God.[1] You must not defile the land the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance. Also see the Christian unions site on this issue. https://theologynetwork.uk/think/the-messiah-who-was-cursed-on-a-tree. Further, the lost Temple scroll (64:6-13), rediscovered during the Arab/Israeli Six-Day war in 1967, confirming Deuteronomy 21. It is also confirmed by the Talmud (Sanhedrin 43a, verse 20), and the New Testament. https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+5%3A30%2CActs+10%3A39%2CActs+13%3A29%2CGalatians+3%3A13%2C1+Peter+2%3A24&version=KJV.
Paul has the last word on being hung on a Tree! “Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us—for it is written, Cursed is everyone who is hanged on a tree” Galatians 313 KJV. Christian have in the past refrained from commenting, as they will inevitably have to reject my citations. As commenting on the issue would make them deny their God’s word, and their holy Bible. One must not forget the hardliners, who will come up with other interpretations that are nowhere to by seen in the written scriptures. What do you say about Jesus’ sinful birth and how he was accursed by God?
