Pliny, Tacitus and Suetonius: No Proof of Jesus
Pliny, Tacitus and Suetonius: No Proof of Jesus
Like those of the Jewish writer Josephus, the works of the ancient historians Pliny, Suetonius and Tacitus do NOT provide proof that Jesus Christ ever existed as a "historical" character. Regarding these "references," if they were genuine they would no more prove the existence of Jesus Christ than do writings about other gods prove THEIR existence.
