The whole point of JNE is to show that there is no coherent story behind any of the jesus myth. Different threads from different times and places were glossed over....and more myths like "Paul" were invented to provide simplistic answers to problems which were obvious to early church officials. They are no so obvious to us anymore because the heretical groups which caused the problems no longer exist.
Paul is put into a first century context and frankly, it is very shaky at best.
