In my opinion there is little doubt that the Jesus of the New Testament was based on a first century Jewish Apocalyptic Prophet and possible Messiah claimant, who was executed by the Romans for sedition. However the little evidence we have for this historical character is overwhelmed by the mythology which developed among his followers, who in my opinion earnestly believed after he was executed, he was resurrected.
