@Nestor, one book I have considered reading is "The Jewish Gospels" by Daniel Boyarin. His ideas are on the fringes, but he is a real historian and not just somebody who wrote a book. Boyarin claims that weird Christian ideas like the trinity and the resurrection existed in some Jewish sects before the time of Jesus.
