Non-Christian sources used to study and establish the historicity of Jesus include the Jewish historian [[Josephus]] and [[ancient Rome|Roman]] historian [[Tacitus]].

<!--According to New Testament scholar [[James Dunn (theologian)|James Dunn]], nearly all modern scholars consider the [[baptism of Jesus]] and [[Crucifixion of Jesus|his crucifixion]] to be historically certain.<ref name=JDunn339/> He states that these "two facts in the life of Jesus command almost universal assent" and "rank so high on the 'almost impossible to doubt or deny' scale of historical 'facts' they are obvious starting points for an attempt to clarify the what and why of Jesus' mission."<ref name=JDunn339 /> [[John P.

The criterion of embarrassment is also used to argue in favor of the historicity of the baptism of Jesus by [[John the Baptist]] as it is a story which the [[early Christianity|early Christian Church]] would have never wanted to invent.<ref name="Powell47" /><ref name=Whois31 >''Who Is Jesus?'' by John Dominic Crossan, Richard G.

[[Amy-Jill Levine]] has summarized the situation by stating that "there is a consensus of sorts on the basic outline of Jesus' life" in that most scholars agree that Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist, and over a period of one to three years debated Jewish authorities on the subject of God, gathered followers, and was crucified by [[Roman governor|Roman prefect]] Pontius Pilate who officiated 26–36 AD.<ref name=AmyJill4>{{cite book|author1=Amy-Jill Levine|author2=Dale C.

Since the 18th century, three separate scholarly [[Quest for the historical Jesus|quests for the historical Jesus]] have taken place, each with distinct characteristics and based on different research criteria, which were often developed during that phase.<ref name=BenQ9>Ben Witherington, ''The Jesus Quest: The Third Search for the Jew of Nazareth'' (May 8, 1997) {{ISBN|0830815449}} pp. 9–13</ref><ref name=AlanP19>''Jesus as a Figure in History: How Modern Historians View the Man from Galilee'' by Mark Allan Powell (1 Jan 1999) {{ISBN|0664257038}} pp. 19–23</ref> The portraits of Jesus that have been constructed in these processes have often differed from each other, and from the dogmatic image portrayed in the gospel accounts.<ref name=Ehrman285/><ref name=GerdD5/>
