Ah, no.

Josephus refers to Jesus as the messiah which is a title of Jesus in the bible. Messiah was what the Jews were looking for to physically deliver them from the Romans. Later a false messiah lead the jews to their destruction is what Josephus is leading up to.


Indeed it does. Try it for a while, Immanuel will be pleased. You are a 'they' aren't you ??

Matthew 1 (KJV)
23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
