If this were simply a matter of secular history I would agree with you that the lack of corroboration is not surprising. What we are talking about here though are supernatural events. In our day and time and even in recent history there has been no proof that supernatural/miracle events can happen besides some attributions.
So when a document is claiming that something happened that seems to not exist in reality it is going to raise red flags. If Christianity is truly guided by the divine creator of the universe than it should not be too much for him to provide an easier way to see that the Bible is true. A divine hand in it should make it a lot less difficult unless that divine hand is intentionally trying to make things difficult.
