		Jesus, also known as Jesus of Nazareth or Jesus Christ, is the central figure of Christianity, most of the followers of which worship him as the Messiah, son of God, and God incarnate.
		Before then, Jesus' birth was generally celebrated on January 6 as part of the feast of Theophany, also known as Epiphany, which commemorated not only Jesus' birth but also his baptism by John in the Jordan and possibly additional events in Jesus' life.
		Jesus also preached the imminent end of the current era of history, or even the literal end of the world; in this sense he was an apocalyptic preacher.

	Paula Fredriksen's From Jesus to Christ
		Jesus had disapproved of the Temple anyway (Mk 11); he predicted its destruction (Mk 13); what matters is the resurrection (Jn 2); its destruction means that the Kingdom, coupled with Jesus’ return, is at hand.
		Jesus taught a love of neighbor that extended naturally across ethnic or racial or national boundaries; they were consumed with nationalism and a concern for racial purity.
		Jesus, and by extension Christianity, was "good"; the Judaism of Jesus’ contemporaries — and especially of his opponents (the scribes, or the Pharisees, or the priests) was "bad." In effect if not intent, such descriptions perpetuate the long Christian tradition of scholarly anti-Judaism.

	Mary Rose D'Angelo: Images of Jesus and the Christian Vocation in the Gospels of Mark and Matthew
		Mark(1) depicts Jesus as the crucified messiah, the dead and risen Lord, and challenges the reader with the call to follow him to the cross.

	Professor describes Islam’s images of Jesus--Ummah.comComparative Religion
		It is the myth of Jesus that attracts the attention of modern poets _ the Sudanese Muhammad al-Fayturi, the Palestinian Mahmud Darwish, and al-Sayyab.
		For example, a saying attributed to Jesus, “the world is a bridge: Cross this bridge but do not build upon it,” is found as far apart as an inscription on a north Indian mosque and in 12th century Andalusian literature.
		But Jesus does not remain in the guise of a Muslim prophet, as the image of Jesus surpasses that of his Muslim creators, taking on a life of his own as human, yet enlightened being.

	Should we make Images of Jesus
		Thus, the images made of them are without resemblance, and it is vanity to make an image and say: That is Christ, that is Mary, that is Peter, etc. Yes, even if we had their true pictures, we may nevertheless not worship, honor, nor engage in any religious activity toward them.
		It also rules out the use of pictures and statues of Jesus Christ as a man, although Jesus himself was and remains man; for all pictures and statues are necessarily made after the “likeness” of ideal manhood as we conceive it, and therefore come under the ban which the commandment imposes.
		The heart of the objection to pictures and images is that they inevitably conceal most, if not all, of the truth about the personal nature and character of the divine Being whom they represent.
