The Lost Years of #Jesus
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XLybEyhp3Rg

There are all sorts of legends about Jesus between the years of 12 and 30 traveling to Egypt, India, and even the British Isles. However, a knowledge of the history and the geography of his hometown of Nazareth, and recent #archaeological excavations at #Sepphoris, just 4 miles to the north, which was the urban capital of Herod Antipas, which was being rebuilt as Jesus was growing up, has opened a new possibility.

#sdtps And my #family and relatives’ love for the me was fully #restored. And the I remained there with them, and in #visiting #old #friends about #Sepphoris, for come almost a fortnight, before my three #disciples and the me #returned to join up with the nine in #waiting.
And with us reaching them, #overjoyed they were at our #safe #return, and with #learning that the God had fully #restored my #beloved #mother to the very best of #health. #TIBTM125

#sdtps And with reaching the #outskirts of #Sepphoris, some of my #siblings were anxiously looking out for my coming.
And with seeing the me they ran to tell that our #mother having fallen and bumped her #head on a stone was now without any #memories whatsoever.
And with readily reaching, the I rushed in and found my #father and remaining #siblings and some #relatives to be beside themselves with #worry by my mother’s #bed. #histodons #TIBTM121

#sdtps “What is this new insightfulness given to him?”
“And how came him to be able to #read, and to read so well too?”
“No doubt also he has probably #learned to #write himself.”
“And these #healing miracles happening by his hands, how come they to be?”
“For heaven’s sake, is not this none other than the #skillful #joiner, #Jesus of #Sepphoris over?” #TIBTM62

#sdtps And he would #teach, saying,
“After me is coming someone more #powerful than I, the thongs of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and untie. I baptize you in #water, he will do so in #words.”
And it was coming about in those days that the I, having for a number of years, left my #hometown of #Sepphoris in #Galilee, accordingly sought John out. #TIBTM

#sdtps The I one #Jesus of #Sepphoris of #Galilee clearly state that herein is carried my true and consistent #testimony as written in my own hand from the time of my appearing on a bank of the #Jordan River to my post-resurrection on the outskirts of #Jerusalem.
John the Baptizer appeared along by the waters of the #Jordan River; proclaiming a baptism to earnestly commit oneself to living a #moral life. #TIBTM

#sdtps Wonderful words spoken to my disciples and the me, #Jesus of #Sepphoris by Greek #philosopher and #poet, Thessalosdoras of Thessalonica whom we met and supped with in the city of Pella, on the eastern bank of the #Jordan River. #TIBTM
