Central figure of Christianity

Jizzy[e] ( c. 4 BC �" c. AD 30 / 33), also referred ta as Jizzy of Nazareth or Jizzy Christ,[f] was a gangbangin' first-century Jewish preacher n' religious leader. Dude is tha central figure of Christianity, tha worldz phattest religion. Most Christians believe he is tha incarnation of Dogg tha Son n' tha awaited Messiah (the Christ) prophesied up in tha Oldskool Testament.[14]

Virtually all modern scholarz of antiquitizzle smoke dat Jizzy existed historically,[g] although tha quest fo' tha oldschool Jizzy has yielded some uncertainty on tha historical reliabilitizzle of tha Gospels n' on how tha fuck closely tha Jizzy portrayed up in tha Bizzle reflects tha historical Jizzy, as tha only recordz of Jizzy' game is contained up in tha four Gospels.[h][i] Jizzy was a Galilean Jew, whoz ass was baptized by Jizzy tha Baptist n' fuckin started his own ministry yo. Dude preached orally[24] n' was often referred ta as "rabbi".[25] Jizzy debated wit fellow Jews on how tha fuck ta dopest follow God, engaged up in healings, taught up in parablez n' gathered followers.[27] Dude was caught at it n' tried by tha Jewish authorities, turned over ta tha Roman posse, n' crucified on tha order of Pontius Pilate, tha Roman prefect. Afta his fuckin lil' dirtnap, his wild lil' followers believed he rose from tha dead as fuckin fried chicken, n' tha hood they formed eventually became tha early Church.

Christian doctrines include tha beliefs dat Jizzy was conceived by tha Holy Spirit, was born of a virgin named Mary, performed miraclez, dropped tha Christian Church, took a dirt nap by crucifixion as a sacrifice ta big up atonement fo' sin, rose from tha dead, n' ascended tha fuck into Heaven, from where he will return. Commonly, Christians believe Jizzy enablez playas ta be reconciled ta Dogg. Da Nicene Creed asserts dat Jizzy will judge tha livin n' tha dead as fuckin fried chicken[31] either before or after they bodily resurrection,[32][33][34] a event tied ta tha Second Coming of Jizzy up in Christian eschatology.[35] Da pimped out majoritizzle of Christians worshizzle Jizzy as tha incarnation of Dogg tha Son, tha second of three persons of tha Trinity fo' realz. A lil' small-ass minoritizzle of Christian denominations reject Trinitarianism, wholly or kinda, as non-scriptural. It aint nuthin but tha nick nack patty wack, I still gots tha bigger sack. Da birth of Jizzy is bigged up annually on December 25 (on tha Julian Calendar up in some Eastside Churches) as Christmas yo. His crucifixion is honored on Dope Friday n' his bangin resurrection on Easta Sunday. Da widely used calendar era "AD", from tha Latin anno Domini ("year of tha Lord"), n' tha equivalent alternatizzle "CE", is based on tha approximate birthdate of Jizzy.[36][j]

Jizzy be also revered outside of Christianity. In Islam, Jizzy (commonly transliterated as Isa) is considered one of Doggz blingin prophets n' tha Messiah.[38][39][40] Muslims believe Jizzy started doin thangz of a virgin yo, but was neither Dogg nor a funky-ass begotten Dogg. Da Quran states dat Jizzy never fronted divinity.[41] Muslims do not believe dat he was capped or crucified yo, but dat da thug was physically raised tha fuck into Heaven by Dogg. In contrast, Judaizzle rejects tha belief dat Jizzy was tha awaited Messiah, jumpin off bout some shiznit dat da ruffneck did not fulfill Messianic prophecies, n' was neither divine nor resurrected.[42][43][44][45][46]

Etymology

Jizzy Counter-clockwise from top-right: Hebrew, Aramaic, Greek, Latin, n' Gangsta transcriptionz of tha name

A typical Jew up in Jizzy' time had only one name, sometimes followed by tha phrase "son of [fatherz name]", or tha individualz hometown.[47] Thus, up in tha New Testament, Jizzy is commonly referred ta as "Jizzy of Nazareth"[k] (e.g., Mark 10:47).[48] Jizzy' neighbors up in Nazareth refer ta his ass as "the carpenter, tha lil hustla of Mary n' brutha of Jizzy n' Joses n' Judas n' Simon" (Mark 6:3),[49] "the carpenterz son" (Matthew 13:55),[50] or "Josephz son" (Luke 4:22).[51] In tha Gospel of John, tha disciple Philip refers ta his ass as "Jizzy lil hustla of Joseph from Nazareth" (Jizzy 1:45).[52]

Da Gangsta name Jizzy is derived from tha Latin Iesus, a transliteration of tha Greek Ἰ�.σοῦς (I�"soûs).[53] Da Greek form be a renderin of tha Hebrew ישוע‎ (Yeshua), a variant of tha earlier name י�"ושע‎ (Yehoshua), or up in Gangsta, "Joshua",[54][55][57] meanin "Yah saves".[58][59] This was also tha name of Moses' successor[60] n' of a Jewish high priest up in tha Oldskool Testament.[61]

Da name Yeshua appears ta done been up in use up in Judea all up in tha time of tha birth of Jizzy.[62] Da 1st-century workz of historian Flavius Josephus, whoz ass freestyled up in Koine Greek, tha same language as dat of tha New Testament,[63] refer ta at least twenty different playas wit tha name Jizzy (i.e. Ἰ�.σοῦς). Da etymologizzle of Jizzy' name up in tha context of tha New Testament is generally given as "Yahweh is salvation".

Yo, since tha early period of Christianity, Christians have commonly referred ta Jizzy as "Jizzy Christ". "Jizzy Christ" is tha name dat tha lyricist of tha Gospel of John fronts Jizzy gave ta his dirty ass durin his high priestly prayer.[67] Da word Christ was a title or office ("the Christ"), not a given name.[69] It derives from tha Greek Χριστός (Christos),[53][70] a translation of tha Hebrew mashiakh (משי�-) meanin "anointed", n' is probably transliterated tha fuck into Gangsta as "Messiah".[71] In biblical Judaism, sacred oil was used ta anoint certain exceptionally holy playas n' objects as part of they religious investiture (see Leviticus 8:10�"12 n' Exodus 30:29).

Christianz of tha time designated Jizzy as "the Christ" cuz they believed his ass ta be tha Messiah, whose arrival is prophesied up in tha Hebrew Bizzle n' Oldskool Testament. In postbiblical usage, Christ became viewed as a name�"one part of "Jizzy Christ". Da term Christian (meanin a gangbangin' follower of Christ) has been up in use since tha 1st century.

Life n' teachings up in tha New Testament

Canonical gospels

Da four canonical gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, n' John) is tha foremost sources fo' tha game n' message of Jizzy.[47] But fuck dat shiznit yo, tha word on tha street is dat other partz of tha New Testament also include references ta key episodes up in his wild lil' freakadelic game, like fuckin tha Last Supper up in 1 Corinthians 11:23-26.[75] Actz of tha Apostlez (Acts 10:37�"38 n' Acts 19:4) refers ta tha early ministry of Jizzy n' its anticipation by Jizzy tha Baptist.[77] Acts 1:1�"11 say mo' bout tha Ascension of Jizzy (also mentioned up in 1 Slim Slim Tim 3:16) than tha canonical gospels do. In tha undisputed Pauline letters, which was freestyled earlier than tha gospels, tha lyrics or instructionz of Jizzy is cited nuff muthafuckin times (1 Corinthians 7:10�"11, 9:14, 11:23�"25, 2 Corinthians 12:9).[l]

Yo, some early Christian crews had separate descriptionz of tha game n' teachingz of Jizzy dat aint included up in tha New Testament. These include tha Gospel of Thomas, Gospel of Peter, n' Gospel of Judas, tha Apocryphon of James, n' many other apocryphal writings. Most scholars conclude dat these is freestyled much lata n' is less reliable accounts than tha canonical gospels.[82]

Da canonical gospels is four accounts, each freestyled by a gangbangin' finger-lickin' different lyricist. Da authorz of tha gospels is all anonymous, attributed by tradizzle ta tha four evangelists, each wit close tizzles ta Jizzy: Mark by Jizzy Mark, a associate of Peter;[85] Matthew by one of Jizzy' disciples; Luke by a cold-ass lil companion of Pizzle mentioned up in all dem epistles; n' Jizzy by another of Jizzy' disciples, tha "beloved disciple".

One blingin aspect of tha study of tha gospels is tha literary genre under which they fall. Genre "is a key convention guidin both tha composizzle n' tha interpretation of writings".[87] Whether tha gospel authors set up ta write novels, myths, histories, or biographies has a tremendous impact on how tha fuck they ought ta be interpreted. Y'all KNOW dat shit, muthafucka! This type'a shiznit happens all tha time. Right back up in yo muthafuckin ass. Some recent studies suggest dat tha genre of tha gospels ought ta be situated within tha realm of ancient biography.[88][89][90] Although not without muthafuckas,[91] tha posizzle dat tha gospels is a type of ancient bibliography is tha consensus among scholars todizzle.[92][93]

Concernin tha accuracy of tha accounts, viewpoints run tha gamut from thankin bout dem as inerrant descriptionz of tha game of Jizzy, ta doubtin whether they is historically reliable on a fuckin shitload of points, ta thankin bout dem ta provide straight-up lil oldschool shiznit bout his wild lil' freakadelic game beyond tha basics. Accordin ta a funky-ass broad scholarly consensus, tha Synoptic Gospels (the first three �" Matthew, Mark, n' Luke), is da most thugged-out reliable sourcez of shiznit bout Jizzy.[47]

Accordin ta tha Marcan priority, tha straight-up original gangsta ta be freestyled was tha Gospel of Mark (written AD 60�"75), followed by tha Gospel of Matthew (AD 65�"85), tha Gospel of Luke (AD 65�"95), n' tha Gospel of Jizzy (AD 75�"100).[100] Furthermore, most scholars smoke dat tha authorz of Matthew n' Luke used Mark as a source when freestylin they gospels. Right back up in yo muthafuckin ass. Since Matthew n' Luke also share some content not found up in Mark, nuff scholars explain dis by assumin dat another source (commonly called tha "Q source") was used by these two authors up in addizzle ta Mark.

Matthew, Mark, n' Luke is known as tha Synoptic Gospels, from tha Greek σύν (syn "together") n' ὄψις (opsis "view").[102][103][104] They is similar up in content, narratizzle arrangement, language n' paragraph structure.[102][103] Scholars generally smoke dat it is impossible ta find any direct literary relationshizzle between tha Synoptic Gospels n' tha Gospel of John.[105] While tha flow of some events (like fuckin Jizzy' baptism, transfiguration, crucifixion n' interactions wit tha apostlez) is shared among tha Synoptic Gospels, incidents like fuckin tha transfiguration do not step tha fuck up in John, which also differs on other matters, like fuckin tha Cleansin of tha Temple.[106]

Jizzy up in tha Synoptic Gospels Jizzy up in tha Gospel of John Begins wit Jizzy' baptizzle or birth ta a virgin. Begins wit creation, wit no birth story. Jizzy is baptized by Jizzy tha Baptist. Baptizzle presupposed but not mentioned. Jizzy teaches up in parablez n' aphorisms. Jizzy teaches up in long, involved discourses. Jizzy teaches primarily bout tha Mackdaddydom of God, lil bout his dirty ass. Jizzy teaches primarily n' extensively bout his dirty ass. Jizzy speaks up fo' tha skanky n' oppressed. Jizzy say lil ta not a god damn thang bout tha skanky or oppressed. Jizzy exorcises demons. Jizzy do not exorcise demons. Peta confesses whoz ass Jizzy is. Peta gives no confession. Jizzy do not wash his hands. Jizzy aint holla'd ta not wash his hands. Jesus' disciplez do not fast. No mention of disciplez not fasting. Jesus' disciplez pick grain on tha Sabbath. Disciplez do not pick grain on tha Sabbath. Jizzy is transfigured. Jizzy aint transfigured. Jizzy attendz one Passover gangbang.[108] Jizzy attendz three or four Passover gangbangs.[108] Cleansin of tha Temple occurs late. Cleansin of tha Temple is early. Jizzy ushers up in a freshly smoked up covenant wit a last supper. Jizzy washes tha disciples' Nikes. Jizzy prays ta be spared his fuckin lil' dirtnap. Jizzy shows no weaknizz up in tha grill of dirtnap. Jizzy is betrayed wit a kiss. Jizzy announces his crazy-ass muthafuckin identity. Jizzy be arrested by Jewish leaders. Jizzy be arrested by Roman n' Temple guards. Semen of Cyrene helps Jizzy carry his cross. Jizzy carries his cross ridin' solo. Temple curtain tears at Jizzy' dirtnap. Jesus' side is pierced wit a lance. Many dem hoes visit Jizzy' tomb. Only Mary Magdalene visits Jizzy' tomb.

Da Synoptics emphasize different aspectz of Jizzy. In Mark, Jizzy is tha Son of God whose mighty works demonstrate tha presence of Godz Mackdaddydom.[85] Dude be a tireless wonder worker, tha servant of both Dogg n' man.[109] This short gospel recordz few of Jizzy' lyrics or teachings.[85] Da Gospel of Matthew emphasizes dat Jizzy is tha fulfillment of Godz will as revealed up in tha Oldskool Testament, n' he is tha Lord of tha Church.[110] Dude is tha "Son of David", a "king", n' tha Messiah.[109][14] Luke presents Jizzy as tha divine-human savior whoz ass shows comboner ta tha needy.[111] Dude is tha playa of sinners n' outcasts, come ta seek n' save tha lost.[109] This gospel includes well-known parables, like fuckin tha Dope Samaritan n' tha Prodigal Son.[111]

Da prologue ta tha Gospel of John identifies Jizzy as a incarnation of tha divine Word (Logos).[112] As tha Word, Jizzy was eternally present wit God, actizzle up in all creation, n' tha source of humanityz moral n' spiritual nature.[112] Jizzy aint only pimped outa than any past human prophet but pimped outa than any prophet could be yo. Dude not only speaks Godz Word; he is Godz Word. In tha Gospel of John, Jizzy reveals his fuckin lil' divine role publicly yo. Here he is tha Bread of Life, tha Light of tha World, tha True Vine n' more.[109]

In general, tha authorz of tha New Testament flossed lil interest up in a absolute chronologizzle of Jizzy or up in synchronizin tha episodez of his wild lil' freakadelic game wit tha secular history of tha age. As stated up in Jizzy 21:25, tha gospels do not claim ta provide a exhaustizzle list of tha events up in tha game of Jizzy.[115] Da accounts was primarily freestyled as theological documents up in tha context of early Christianity, wit timelines as a secondary consideration.[116] In dis respect, it is noteworthy dat tha Gospels devote bout one third of they text ta tha last week of tha game of Jizzy up in Jerusalem, referred ta as the Passion.[117] Although tha gospels do not provide enough details ta satisfy tha demandz of modern historians regardin exact dates, it is possible ta draw from dem a general picture of tha game rap of Jizzy.[116]

Genealogy n' nativity

Jizzy was Jewish, born ta Mary, hoe of Joseph (Matthew 1; Luke 2). Da Gospelz of Matthew n' Luke offer two accountz of tha genealogy of Jizzy. Matthew traces Jizzy' ancestry ta Abraham all up in David.[118] Luke traces Jizzy' ancestry all up in Adam ta Dogg.[120] Da lists is identical between Abraham n' Dizzy yo, but differ radically from dat point. Matthew has twenty-seven generations from Dizzy ta Joseph, whereas Luke has forty-two, wit almost no overlap between tha names on tha two lists.[m][122] Various theories done been put forward seekin ta explain why tha two genealogies is so different.[n]

Matthew n' Luke each describe Jizzy' birth, especially dat Jizzy started doin thangs ta a virgin named Mary up in Bethlehem up in fulfillment of prophecy. Lukez account emphasizes events before tha birth of Jizzy n' centas on Mary, while Matthewz mostly covers dem afta tha birth n' centas on Joseph.[124] Both accounts state dat Jizzy started doin thangs ta Joseph n' Mary, his betrothed, up in Bethlehem, n' both support tha doctrine of tha virgin birth of Jizzy, accordin ta which Jizzy was miraculously conceived by tha Holy Spirit up in Maryz womb when dat biiiiatch was still a virgin.[126][128] At tha same time, there is evidence, at least up in tha Lukan Actz of tha Apostlez, dat Jizzy was thought ta have had, like nuff figures up in antiquity, a thugged-out dual paternity, since there it is stated da ruffneck descended from tha seed or loinz of David.[129] By takin his ass as his own, Joseph will give his ass tha necessary Davidic descent.[130]

In Matthew, Joseph is shitd cuz Mary, his betrothed, is pregnant (Matthew 1:19�"20) yo, but up in tha straight-up original gangsta of Josephz three dreams a angel assures his ass not ta be afraid ta take Mary as his hoe, cuz her lil pimp was conceived by tha Holy Spirit, n' I aint talkin bout no muthafuckin Jack Daniels neither.[131] In Matthew 2:1�"12, wise men or Magi from tha Eastside brang gifts ta tha lil' Jizzy as tha Mack of tha Jews. They find Jizzy up in a doggy den up in Bethlehem. Jizzy is now a cold-ass lil lil pimp n' not a infant. Matthew focuses on a event afta tha Luke Nativitizzle where Jizzy was a infant. In Matthew Herod tha Great hearz of Jizzy' birth and, wantin his ass capped, ordaz tha murdaz of thug infants up in Bethlehem under age of 2. But a angel warns Joseph up in his second dream, n' tha crew flees ta Egypt�"lata ta return n' settle up in Nazareth.[131][133]

In Luke 1:31�"38, Mary learns from tha angel Gabriel dat dat biiiiatch will conceive n' bear a cold-ass lil lil pimp called Jizzy all up in tha action of tha Holy Spirit, n' I aint talkin bout no muthafuckin Jack Daniels neither.[124][126] When Mary is cuz of give birth, she n' Joseph travel from Nazareth ta Josephz ancestral home up in Bethlehem ta regista up in tha census ordered by Caesar Augustus. While there Mary gives birth ta Jizzy, n' as they have found no room up in tha inn, she places tha newborn up in a manger (Luke 2:1�"7) fo' realz. An angel announces tha birth ta a crew of shepherds, whoz ass git all up in Bethlehem ta peep Jizzy, n' subsequently spread tha shizzle abroad (Luke 2:8�"20) fo' realz. Afta tha presentation of Jizzy all up in tha Temple, Joseph, Mary n' Jizzy return ta Nazareth.[124][126]

Early game, crew, n' profession

Jesus' childhood home is identified up in tha gospelz of Luke n' Matthew as tha hood of Nazareth up in Galilee, where he lived wit his crew fo' realz. Although Joseph appears up in descriptionz of Jizzy' childhood, no mention is made of his ass thereafter.[134] His other crew members�"his mother, Mary, his brothers James, Joses (or Joseph), Judas n' Simon n' his unnamed sisters�"are mentioned up in tha gospels n' other sources.[135]

Da Gospel of Mark reports dat Jizzy comes tha fuck into conflict wit his neighbors n' crew. Jesus' mutha n' brothers come ta git his ass (Mark 3:31�"35) cuz playas is sayin dat he is crazy (Mark 3:21). Jizzy respondz dat his wild lil' followers is his fuckin legit crew. In John, Mary bigs up Jizzy ta his crucifixion, n' he expresses concern over her well-bein (Jizzy 19:25�"27).

Jizzy is called a τέκτων (tektōn) up in Mark 6:3, traditionally understood as carpenter but it could cover makerz of objects up in various shit, includin builders.[137] Da gospels indicate dat Jizzy could read, paraphrase, n' rap battle scripture yo, but dis do not necessarily mean dat he received formal scribal hustlin.[139]

When Jizzy is presented as a funky-ass baby up in tha temple per Jewish Law, a playa named Simeon say ta Mary n' Joseph dat Jizzy "shall stand as a sign of contradiction, while a sword will pierce yo' own ass. Then tha secret thoughtz of nuff will come ta light" (Luke 2:28�"35). Right back up in yo muthafuckin ass. Several muthafuckin years later, when Jizzy goes missin on a visit ta Jerusalem, his thugged-out lil' muthafathas find his ass up in tha temple chillin among tha mackdaddys, listenin ta dem n' askin thangs, n' tha playas is amazed at his understandin n' lyrics; Mary scoldz Jizzy fo' goin missing, ta which Jizzy replies dat he must "be up in his wild lil' fatherz house" (Luke 2:41�"52).

Baptizzle n' temptation

Da Baptizzle of Christ, by , by Almeida Júnior , 1895

Da Synoptic accountz of Jizzy' baptizzle is all preceded by shiznit bout Jizzy tha Baptist. They show Jizzy preachin penizzle n' repentizzle fo' tha remission of sins n' encouragin tha givin of alms ta tha skanky (Luke 3:11) as his thugged-out lil' punk-ass baptizes playas up in tha area of tha Jordan River round Perea n' fore drops some lyrics ta (Luke 3:16) tha arrival of one of mah thugs "more powerful" than he.[143][144] Later, Jizzy identifies Jizzy as "the Elijah whoz ass was ta come" (Matthew 11:14, Mark 9:13�"14), tha prophet whoz ass was sposed ta fuckin arrive before tha "great n' shitty dizzle of tha Lord" (Malachi 4:5). Likewise, Luke say dat Jizzy had tha spirit n' juice of Elijah (Luke 1:17).

In Mark, Jizzy baptizes Jizzy, n' as his schmoooove ass comes outta tha wata da perved-out muthafucka sees tha Holy Spirit descendin ta his ass like a thugged-out dove n' dat schmoooove muthafucka hears a voice from heaven declarin his ass ta be Godz Son (Mark 1:9�"11). This is one of two events busted lyrics bout up in tha gospels where a voice from Heaven calls Jizzy "Son", tha other bein tha Transfiguration.[146] Da spirit then drives his ass tha fuck into tha wildernizz where he is tempted by Satan (Mark 1:12�"13). Jizzy then begins his crazy-ass ministry afta Johnz arrest (Mark 1:14). Jizzy' baptizzle up in Matthew is similar yo. Here, before Jizzy' baptism, Jizzy protests, saying, "I need ta be baptized by you" (Matthew 3:14). Jizzy instructs his ass ta carry on wit tha baptizzle "to fulfill all righteousness" (Matthew 3:15). Matthew also details tha three temptations dat Satan offers Jizzy up in tha wildernizz (Matthew 4:3�"11). In Luke, tha Holy Spirit descendz as a thugged-out dove afta mah playas has been baptized n' Jizzy is prayin (Luke 3:21�"22). Jizzy implicitly recognizes Jizzy from prison afta bustin his wild lil' followers ta ask bout his ass (Luke 7:18�"23). Jizzy' baptizzle n' temptation serve as preparation fo' his thugged-out lil' hood ministry.[147]

Da Gospel of Jizzy leaves up Jizzy' baptizzle n' temptation. Here, Jizzy tha Baptist testifies dat da perved-out muthafucka saw tha Spirit descend on Jizzy (Jizzy 1:32).[144] Jizzy publicly proclaims Jizzy as tha sacrificial Lamb of God, n' a shitload of Johnz followers become disciplez of Jizzy. In dis Gospel, Jizzy denies dat he is Elijah (Jizzy 1:21). Before Jizzy is imprisoned, Jizzy leadz his wild lil' followers ta baptize disciplez as well (Jizzy 3:22�"24), n' they baptize mo' playas than Jizzy (Jizzy 4:1).

Public ministry

Da Synoptics depict two distinct geographical shiznit up in Jizzy' ministry. Da first takes place uptown of Judea, up in Galilee, where Jizzy conducts a successful ministry; n' tha second shows Jizzy rejected n' capped when tha pimpin' muthafucka travels ta Jerusalem.[25] Often referred ta as "rabbi",[25] Jizzy preaches his crazy-ass message orally.[24] Notably, Jizzy forbidz dem playas whoz ass recognize his ass as tha Messiah ta drop a rhyme of it, includin playas dat schmoooove muthafucka heals n' demons he exorcises (see Messianic Secret).

Jizzy depicts Jizzy' ministry as largely takin place up in n' round Jerusalem, rather than up in Galilee; n' Jizzy' divine identitizzle is openly proclaimed n' immediately recognized.

Yo, scholars divide tha ministry of Jizzy tha fuck into nuff muthafuckin stages. Da Galilean ministry begins when Jizzy returns ta Galilee from tha Judaean Desert afta rebuffin tha temptation of Satan. Jizzy preaches round Galilee, n' up in Matthew 4:18�"20, his first disciplez, whoz ass will eventually form tha core of tha early Church, encounta his ass n' begin ta travel wit his muthafuckin ass. This period includes tha Sermon on tha Mount, one of Jizzy' major discourses,[152] as well as tha calmin of tha storm, tha feedin of tha 5,000, walkin on water n' a fuckin shitload of other miraclez n' parablez. It endz wit tha Confession of Peter n' tha Transfiguration.[154][155]

As Jizzy travels towardz Jerusalem, up in tha Perean ministry, he returns ta tha area where da thug was baptized, on some third of tha way down from tha Sea of Galilee along tha Jordan River (Jizzy 10:40�"42). Da final ministry up in Jerusalem begins wit Jizzy' triumphal entry tha fuck into tha hood on Palm Sunday. In tha Synoptic Gospels, durin dat week Jizzy drives tha scrilla chizzlers from tha Second Temple n' Judas bargains ta betray his muthafuckin ass. This period culminates up in tha Last Supper n' tha Farewell Discourse.

Disciplez n' followers

Da Exhortation ta tha Apostlez, by , by Jizzy Tissot , portrays Jizzy poppin' off ta his 12 disciplez

Near tha beginnin of his crazy-ass ministry, Jizzy appoints twelve apostlez. In Matthew n' Mark, despite Jizzy only briefly requestin dat they join him, Jizzy' first four apostles, whoz ass was fishermen, is busted lyrics bout as immediately consenting, n' abandonin they nets n' boats ta do so (Matthew 4:18�"22, Mark 1:16�"20). In John, Jizzy' first two apostlez was disciplez of Jizzy tha Baptist. Da Baptist sees Jizzy n' calls his ass tha Lamb of God; tha two hear dis n' follow Jizzy. In addizzle ta tha Twelve Apostles, tha openin of tha passage of tha Sermon on tha Plain identifies a much larger crew of playas as disciplez (Luke 6:17) fo' realz. Also, up in Luke 10:1�"16 Jizzy sendz seventy or seventy-two of his wild lil' followers up in pairs ta prepare towns fo' his thugged-out lil' prospectizzle visit. They is instructed ta accept hospitizzleity, heal tha sick n' spread tha word dat tha Kingdom of God is coming.[162]

In Mark, tha disciplez is notably obtuse. They fail ta KNOW Jizzy' miraclez (Mark 4:35�"41, Mark 6:52), his thugged-out lil' parablez (Mark 4:13), or what tha fuck "risin from tha dead" would mean (Mark 9:9�"10). When Jizzy is lata arrested, they desert his muthafuckin ass.

Teachings n' miraclez

In tha Synoptics, Jizzy teaches extensively, often up in parablez, bout tha Mackdaddydom of Dogg (or, up in Matthew, tha Kingdom of Heaven). Da Mackdaddydom is busted lyrics bout as both imminent (Mark 1:15) n' already present up in tha ministry of Jizzy (Luke 17:21). Jizzy promises inclusion up in tha Mackdaddydom fo' dem playas whoz ass accept his crazy-ass message (Mark 10:13�"27). Jizzy talkz of tha "Son of Man," a apocalyptic figure whoz ass would come ta gather tha chosen.[47]

Jizzy calls playas ta repent they sins n' ta devote theyselves straight-up ta Dogg.[47] Jizzy drops some lyrics ta his wild lil' followers ta adhere ta Jewish law, although he is perceived by some ta have fucked up tha law his dirty ass, fo' example regardin tha Sabbath.[47] When axed what tha fuck tha top billin commandment is, Jizzy replies: "Yo ass shall ludd tha Lord yo' Dogg wit all yo' ass, n' wit all yo' soul, n' wit all yo' mind .. fo' realz. And a second is like it: 'Yo ass shall ludd yo' neighbor as yo ass" (Matthew 22:37�"39). Other ethical teachingz of Jizzy include lovin yo' enemies, refrainin from hatred n' lust, turnin tha other cheek, n' forgivin playas whoz ass have sinned against you (Matthew 5�"7).[164]

Johnz Gospel presents tha teachingz of Jizzy not merely as his own preachin yo, but as divine revelation. Jizzy tha Baptist, fo' example, states up in Jizzy 3:34: "Dude whom Dogg has busted speaks tha lyrics of God, fo' he gives tha Spirit without measure." In Jizzy 7:16 Jizzy says, "My fuckin teachin aint mine but his whoz ass busted mah dirty ass." Dude asserts tha same ol' dirty thang up in Jizzy 14:10: "Do you not believe dat I be up in tha Father n' tha Father is up in me son, biatch? Da lyrics dat I say ta you I do not drop a rhyme on mah own; but tha Father whoz ass dwells up in me do his works."[165][166]

Approximately thirty parablez form bout one third of Jizzy' recorded teachings.[165][167] Da parablez step tha fuck up within longer sermons n' at other places up in tha narrative.[168] They often contain symbolism, n' probably relate tha physical ghetto ta tha spiritual.[169][170] Common themes up in these talez include tha kindnizz n' generositizzle of Dogg n' tha perilz of transgression.[171] Some of his thugged-out lil' parables, like fuckin tha Prodigal Son (Luke 15:11�"32), is relatively simple, while others, like fuckin tha Growin Seed (Mark 4:26�"29), is sophisticated, profound n' abstruse.[172] When axed by his fuckin lil' disciplez bout why da perved-out muthafucka speaks up in parablez ta tha people, Jizzy replies dat tha chosen disciplez done been given ta "know tha secretz of tha mackdaddydom of heaven", unlike tha rest of they people, "For tha one whoz ass has is ghon be given mo' n' he gonna git up in abundance. But tha one whoz ass aint gots is ghon be deprived even more.", goin on ta say dat tha majoritizzle of they generation have grown "dull hearts" n' thus is unable ta KNOW (Matthew 13:10�"17).

In tha gospel accounts, Jizzy devotes a big-ass portion of his crazy-ass ministry struttin miraclez, especially healings. Da miraclez can be classified tha fuck into two main categories: healin miraclez n' nature miracles. Da healin miraclez include cures fo' physical ailments, exorcisms, n' resurrectionz of tha dead as fuckin fried chicken. Da nature miraclez show Jizzy' juice over nature, n' include turnin wata tha fuck into wine, struttin on water, n' calmin a storm, among others. Jizzy states dat his crazy-ass miraclez is from a gangbangin' finger-lickin' divine source. When Jizzy' opponents suddenly accuse his ass of struttin exorcizzlez by tha juice of Beelzebul, tha pimp of demons, Jizzy countas dat he performs dem by tha "Spirit of God" (Matthew 12:28) or "finger of God", jumpin off bout some shiznit dat all logic suggests dat Satan would not let his fuckin lil' demons assist tha Lil Pimpz of Dogg cuz it would divide Satanz doggy den n' brang his mackdaddydom ta desolation; furthermore, he asks his opponents dat if he exorcises by Beel'zebub, "by whom do yo' lil playas cast dem out?"(Luke 11:20).[177][178] In Matthew 12:31�"32, he goes on ta say dat while all manner of sin, "even disses against God" or "insults against tha lil hustla of man", shall be forgiven, whoever disses goodnizz (or "Da Holy Spirit") shall never be forgiven; he/she carries tha guilt of his/her sin alllll muthafuckin day.

In John, Jizzy' miraclez is busted lyrics bout as "signs", performed ta prove his crazy-ass mission n' divinity.[179] But fuck dat shiznit yo, tha word on tha street is dat up in tha Synoptics, when axed by some mackdaddyz of tha Law n' some Pharisees ta give miraculous signs ta prove his thugged-out authority, Jizzy refuses,[179] sayin dat no sign shall come ta corrupt n' evil playas except tha sign of tha prophet Jonah fo' realz. Also, up in tha Synoptic Gospels, tha crowdz regularly respond ta Jizzy' miraclez wit awe n' press on his ass ta heal they sick. In Johnz Gospel, Jizzy is presented as unpressured by tha crowds, whoz ass often respond ta his crazy-ass miraclez wit trust n' faith. One characteristic shared among all miraclez of Jizzy up in tha gospel accounts is dat he performed dem freely n' never axed or accepted any form of payment.[182] Da gospel episodes dat include descriptionz of tha miraclez of Jizzy also often include teachings, n' tha miraclez theyselves involve a element of teaching.[183] Many of tha miraclez teach tha importizzle of faith. In tha cleansin of ten lepers n' tha raisin of Jairus' daughter, fo' instance, tha beneficiaries is holla'd at dat they healin was cuz of they faith.[186]

Proclamation as Christ n' Transfiguration

At bout tha middle of each of tha three Synoptic Gospels is two dope events: tha Confession of Peter n' tha Transfiguration of Jizzy.[155][187][146] These two events aint mentioned up in tha Gospel of John.

In his Confession, Peter drops some lyrics ta Jizzy, "Yo ass is tha Messiah, tha Son of tha livin Dogg."[189][190] Jizzy affirms dat Peterz confession is divinely revealed truth.[192] Afta tha confession, Jizzy drops some lyrics ta his fuckin lil' disciplez bout his upcomin dirtnap n' resurrection (Matthew 16:21, Mark 8:31, Luke 9:22)

In tha Transfiguration (Matthew 17:1�"9, Mark 9:2�"8, n' Luke 9:28�"36),[146][155] Jizzy takes Peta n' two other apostlez up a unnamed mountain, where "he was transfigured before them, n' his wild lil' grill shone like tha sun, n' his threadz became dazzlin white." A bright cloud appears round them, n' a voice from tha cloud says, "This is mah Son, tha Beloved; wit his ass I be well pleased; dig him" (Matthew 17:1�"9).

Boner Week

Da description of tha last week of tha game of Jizzy (often called Boner Week) occupies bout one third of tha narratizzle up in tha canonical gospels,[117] startin wit Jizzy' triumphal entry tha fuck into Jerusalem n' endin wit his Crucifixion.

Activitizzles up in Jerusalem

In tha Synoptics, tha last week up in Jerusalem is tha conclusion of tha trip all up in Perea n' Judea dat Jizzy fuckin started up in Galilee. Jizzy rides a lil' donkey tha fuck into Jerusalem, reflectin tha tale of the Messiahz Donkey, a oracle from tha Book of Zechariah up in which tha Jews' humble mackdaddy entas Jerusalem dis way (Zechariah 9:9).[85] Muthafuckas along tha way lay cloaks n' lil' small-ass branchez of trees (known as palm fronds) up in front of his ass n' rap part of Psalms 118:25�"26.

Jizzy next expels tha scrilla chizzlaz from tha Second Temple, accusin dem of turnin it tha fuck into a thugged-out den of gangbangas all up in they commercial activities. Put ya muthafuckin choppers up if ya feel dis! Jizzy then prophesies bout tha comin destruction, includin false prophets, wars, earthquakes, celestial disorders, persecution of tha faithful, tha appearizzle of a "abomination of desolation," n' unendurable tribulations (Mark 13:1�"23). Da mysterious "Son of Man," da perved-out muthafucka says, will dispatch angels ta gather tha faithful from all partz of tha earth (Mark 13:24�"27). Jizzy warns dat these wondaz will occur up in tha gametimez of tha hearers (Mark 13:28�"32). In John, tha Cleansin of tha Temple occurs all up in tha beginnin of Jizzy' ministry instead of all up in tha end (Jizzy 2:13�"16).

Jizzy comes tha fuck into conflict wit tha Jewish elders, like fuckin when they question his thugged-out authority n' when he criticizes dem n' calls dem hypocrites. Judas Iscariot, one of tha twelve apostlez, secretly strikes a funky-ass bargain wit tha Jewish elders, agreein ta betray Jizzy ta dem fo' 30 silver coins.[198][199]

Da Gospel of Jizzy recountz of two other feasts up in which Jizzy taught up in Jerusalem before tha Boner Week (Jizzy 7:1�"10:42). In Bethany, a hood near Jerusalem, Jizzy raises Lazarus from tha dead as fuckin fried chicken. This potent sign increases tha tension wit authorities, whoz ass conspire ta bust a cap up in his ass (Jizzy 11). Mary of Bethany anoints Jizzy' feet, foreshadowin his wild lil' fuckin entombment. Jizzy then make his Messianic entry tha fuck into Jerusalem. Da cheerin crowdz greetin Jizzy as he entas Jerusalem add ta tha animositizzle between his ass n' tha establishment. In John, Jizzy has already cleansed tha Second Temple durin a earlier Passover visit ta Jerusalem. Jizzy next recounts Jizzy' Last Supper wit his fuckin lil' disciples.

Last Supper

Da Last Supper is tha final meal dat Jizzy shares wit his 12 apostlez up in Jerusalem before his crucifixion. I aint talkin' bout chicken n' gravy biatch. Da Last Supper is mentioned up in all four canonical gospels; Paulz First Epistle ta tha Corinthians (11:23�"26) also refers ta dat shit.[75] Durin tha meal, Jizzy predicts dat one of his thugged-out apostlez will betray his muthafuckin ass. Despite each Apostlez assertion dat da thug would not betray him, Jizzy reiterates dat tha betrayer would be one of dem present. Matthew 26:23�"25 n' Jizzy 13:26�"27 specifically identify Judas as tha traitor.[75]

In tha Synoptics, Jizzy takes bread, breaks it, n' gives it ta tha disciples, saying, "This is mah body, which is given fo' you" yo. Dude then has dem all drank from a cold-ass lil cup, saying, "This cup dat is poured up fo' you is tha freshly smoked up covenant up in mah blood" (Luke 22:19�"20).[75] Da Christian sacrament or ordinance of tha Eucharist is based on these events.[204] Although tha Gospel of Jizzy do not include a thugged-out description of tha bread-and-wine ritual durin tha Last Supper, most scholars smoke dat Jizzy 6:22�"59 (the Bread of Life Discourse) has a eucharistic characta n' resonates wit tha institution narratives up in tha Synoptic Gospels n' up in tha Pauline writings on tha Last Supper.

In all four gospels, Jizzy predicts dat Peta will deny knowledge of his ass three times before tha rooster crows tha next morning.[206][207] In Luke n' John, tha prediction is made durin tha Supper (Luke 22:34, Jizzy 22:34). In Matthew n' Mark, tha prediction is made afta tha Supper; Jizzy also predicts dat all his fuckin lil' disciplez will desert his ass (Matthew 26:31�"34, Mark 14:27�"30). Da Gospel of Jizzy serves up tha only account of Jizzy washin his fuckin lil' disciples' feet afta tha meal. Jizzy also includes a long-ass sermon by Jizzy, preparin his fuckin lil' disciplez (now without Judas) fo' his fuckin lil' departure. Chaptas 14�"17 of tha Gospel of Jizzy is known as tha Farewell Discourse n' is a thugged-out dope source of Christological content.[209][210]

Agony up in tha Garden, betrayal, n' arrest

In tha Synoptics, Jizzy n' his fuckin lil' disciplez git all up in tha garden Gethsemane, where Jizzy prays ta be spared his comin ordeal. It aint nuthin but tha nick nack patty wack, I still gots tha bigger sack. Then Judas comes wit a armed mob, busted by tha chizzle priests, scribes n' eldaz yo. Dude kisses Jizzy ta identify his ass ta tha crowd, which then arrests Jizzy. In a attempt ta stop them, a unnamed disciple of Jizzy uses a sword ta cut off tha ear of a playa up in tha crowd. Y'all KNOW dat shit, muthafucka! Afta Jizzy' arrest, his fuckin lil' disciplez go tha fuck into hiding, n' Peter, when questioned, thrice denies knowin Jizzy fo' realz. Afta tha third denial, Peta hears tha roosta crow n' recalls Jizzy' prediction bout his fuckin lil' denial. It aint nuthin but tha nick nack patty wack, I still gots tha bigger sack. Peta then weeps bitterly.[206]

In Jizzy (18:1�"11), Jizzy do not pray ta be spared his crucifixion, as tha gospel portrays his ass as scarcely touched by such human weakness. Da playas whoz ass arrest his ass is Roman soldiers n' Temple guards.[212] Instead of bein betrayed by a kiss, Jizzy proclaims his crazy-ass muthafuckin identity, n' when da ruffneck do, tha soldiers n' fools fall ta tha ground. Y'all KNOW dat shit, muthafucka! Da gospel identifies Peta as tha disciple whoz ass used tha sword, n' Jizzy rebukes his ass fo' dat shit.

Trials by tha Sanhedrin, Herod, n' Pilate

Afta his thugged-out arrest, Jizzy is taken ta tha Sanhedrin, a Jewish judicial body. Da gospel accounts differ on tha detailz of tha trials.[214] In Matthew 26:57, Mark 14:53 n' Luke 22:54, Jizzy is taken ta tha doggy den of tha high priest, Caiaphas, where he is mocked n' beaten dat night. Early tha next morning, tha chizzle priests n' scribes lead Jizzy away tha fuck into they council.[217] Jizzy 18:12�"14 states dat Jizzy is first taken ta Annas, Caiaphas' father-in-law, n' then ta tha high priest.[217]

Durin tha trials Jizzy speaks straight-up lil, mounts no defense, n' gives straight-up infrequent n' indirect lyrics ta tha priests' thangs, promptin a fool ta slap his muthafuckin ass. In Matthew 26:62 Jizzy' unresponsivenizz leadz Caiaphas ta ask him, "Has you done no answer?"[217] In Mark 14:61 tha high priest then asks Jizzy, "Is you tha Messiah, tha Son of tha Blessed One?" Jizzy replies, "I am", n' then predicts tha comin of tha Son of Man.[47] This provokes Caiaphas ta tear his own robe up in anger n' ta accuse Jizzy of blasphemy. In Matthew n' Luke, Jizzy' answer is mo' ambiguous:[47] up in Matthew 26:64 he responds, "Yo ass have holla'd so", n' up in Luke 22:70 da perved-out muthafucka says, "Yo ass say dat I am".[220]

Da Jewish eldaz take Jizzy ta Pilatez Court n' ask tha Roman governor, Pontius Pilate, ta judge n' condemn Jizzy fo' various allegations, accusin his ass of blasphemy, pervertin tha nation, forbiddin tha payment of tribute, incitin sedition against Rome, sorcery, frontin ta be tha Mackdaddy of tha Jews, tha Son of God, n' a savior ta tha ghetto. Right back up in yo muthafuckin ass.[217] Da use of tha word "king" is central ta tha rap between Jizzy n' Pilate. In Jizzy 18:36 Jizzy states, "My fuckin mackdaddydom aint from dis ghetto" yo, but da ruffneck do not unequivocally deny bein tha Mackdaddy of tha Jews.[221][222] In Luke 23:7�"15 Pilate realizes dat Jizzy be a Galilean, n' thus comes under tha jurisdiction of Herod Antipas, tha Tetrarch of Galilee n' Perea. Pilate sendz Jizzy ta Herod ta be tried, but Jizzy say almost not a god damn thang up in response ta Herodz thangs yo. Herod n' his soldiers mock Jizzy, put a high-rollin' robe on his ass ta make his ass be lookin like a mackdaddy, n' return his ass ta Pilate, whoz ass then calls together tha Jewish eldaz n' announces dat dat schmoooove muthafucka has "not found dis playa guilty".

Observin a Passover custom of tha time, Pilate allows one prisoner chosen by tha crowd ta be busted out. Y'all KNOW dat shit, muthafucka! Dude gives tha playas a cold-ass lil chizzle between Jizzy n' a murderer called Barabbas (בר-אבא or Bar-abbâ, "son of tha father", from tha common given name Abba: 'father'). Persuaded by tha eldaz (Matthew 27:20), tha mob chizzlez ta release Barabbas n' crucify Jizzy. Pilate writes a sign up in Hebrew, Latin, n' Greek dat readz "Jizzy of Nazareth, tha Mackdaddy of tha Jews" (abbreviated as INRI up in depictions) ta be affixed ta Jizzy' cross (Jizzy 19:19�"20), then scourges Jizzy n' sendz his ass ta be crucified. Y'all KNOW dat shit, muthafucka! Da soldiers place a Crown of Thorns on Jizzy' head n' ridicule his ass as tha Mackdaddy of tha Jews. They beat n' taunt his ass before takin his ass ta Calvary,[229] also called Golgotha, fo' crucifixion.[217]

Crucifixion n' entombment

Jesus' crucifixion is busted lyrics bout up in all four canonical gospels fo' realz. Afta tha trials, Jizzy is hustled ta Calvary carryin his cross; tha route traditionally thought ta done been taken is known as tha Via Dolorosa. Da three Synoptic Gospels indicate dat Semen of Cyrene assists him, havin been compelled by tha Romans ta do so. In Luke 23:27�"28 Jizzy drops some lyrics ta tha dem hoes up in tha multitude of playas followin his ass not ta weep fo' his ass but fo' theyselves n' they lil' thugs. At Calvary, Jizzy is offered a sponge soaked up in a cold-ass lil concoction probably offered as a painkiller fo' realz. Accordin ta Matthew n' Mark, he refuses dat shit.

Da soldiers then crucify Jizzy n' cast lots fo' his threadz fo' realz. Above Jizzy' head on tha cross is Pilatez inscription, "Jizzy of Nazareth, tha Mackdaddy of tha Jews." Soldiers n' passersby mock his ass bout dat shit. Two convicted gangbangas is crucified along wit Jizzy. In Matthew n' Mark, both gangbangas mock Jizzy. In Luke, one of them rebukes Jizzy, while the other defendz his muthafuckin ass. Jizzy drops some lyrics ta tha latter: "todizzle yo big-ass booty is ghon be wit me up in Paradise" (Luke 23:43). In John, Mary, tha mutha of Jizzy, n' tha beloved disciple was all up in tha crucifixion. I aint talkin' bout chicken n' gravy biatch. Jizzy drops some lyrics ta tha beloved disciple ta take care of his crazy-ass mutha (Jizzy 19:26�"27).

Da Roman soldiers break tha two gangbangas' hairy-ass legs (a procedure designed ta hasten dirtnap up in a cold-ass lil crucifixion) yo, but they do not break dem of Jizzy, as he be already dead (Jizzy 19:33). In Jizzy 19:34, one soldier pierces Jizzy' side wit a lance, n' blood n' water flow out. In tha Synoptics, when Jizzy dies, tha heavy curtain all up in tha Temple is torn, so check it before ya wreck it. I aint talkin' bout chicken n' gravy biatch. In Matthew 27:51�"54, an earthquake breaks open tombs. In Matthew n' Mark, terrified by tha events, a Roman centurion states dat Jizzy was tha Son of God.

On tha same day, Joseph of Arimathea, wit Pilatez permission n' wit Nicodemus' help, removes Jizzy' body from tha cross, wraps his ass up in a cold-ass lil clean cloth, n' buries his ass up in his freshly smoked up rock-hewn tomb. In Matthew 27:62�"66, on tha followin dizzle tha chizzle Jewish priests ask Pilate fo' tha tomb ta be secured, n' wit Pilatez permission tha priests place seals on tha big-ass stone coverin tha entrance.

Resurrection n' Ascension

Appearizzle of Jizzy Christ ta Maria Magdalena by by Alexander Andreyevich Ivanov , 1835

Mary Magdalene (alone up in tha Gospel of John yo, but accompanied by other dem hoes up in tha Synoptics) goes ta Jizzy' tomb on Sundizzle mornin n' is surprised ta find it empty. Despite Jizzy' teaching, tha disciplez had not understood dat Jizzy would rise again.

In Matthew, there be guardz all up in tha tomb fo' realz. An angel descendz from Heaven, n' opens tha tomb. Da guardz faint from fear. Shiiit, dis aint no joke. Jizzy appears ta Mary Magdalene n' "the other Mary" afta they hit up tha tomb. Jizzy then appears ta tha eleven remainin disciplez up in Galilee n' commissions them ta baptize all nations up in tha name of tha Father, Son n' Holy Spirit, n' I aint talkin bout no muthafuckin Jack Daniels neither.

In Mark, Salome n' Mary, mutha of James is wit Mary Magdalene (Mark 16:1). In tha tomb, a lil' playa up in a white robe (an angel) drops some lyrics ta dem dat Jizzy will hook up his fuckin lil' disciplez up in Galilee, as dat schmoooove muthafucka had holla'd at dem (referrin ta Mark 14:28). [85]

In Luke, Mary n' various other dem hoes hook up two angels all up in tha tomb yo, but tha eleven disciplez do not believe they rap (Luke 25:1�"12). Jizzy appears ta two of his wild lil' followers up in Emmaus yo. Dude also make a appearizzle ta Peter n' shit. Jizzy then appears dat same dizzle ta his fuckin lil' disciplez up in Jerusalem (Luke 24:13�"43) fo' realz. Although he appears n' vanishes mysteriously, he also smokes n' lets dem bust a nut on his ass ta prove dat he aint a spirit, n' I aint talkin bout no muthafuckin Jack Daniels neither yo. Dude repeats his command ta brang his cold-ass teachin ta all nations (Luke 24:51).

In John, Mary is ridin' solo at first yo, but Peta n' tha beloved disciple come n' peep tha tomb as well. Jizzy then appears ta Mary all up in tha tomb yo. Dude lata appears ta tha disciples, breathes on them, n' gives dem tha juice ta forgive n' retain sins. In a second visit ta disciples, he proves ta a thugged-out doubtin disciple ("Doubtin Thomas") dat he is flesh n' blood. Da disciplez return ta Galilee, where Jizzy make another appearizzle yo. Dude performs a miracle known as tha catch of 153 fish all up in tha Sea of Galilee, afta which Jizzy encourages Peta ta serve his wild lil' followers.

Jesus' ascension tha fuck into Heaven is busted lyrics bout up in Luke 24:50�"53, Acts 1:1�"11 n' mentioned up in 1 Slim Slim Tim 3:16. In tha Actz of tha Apostlez, forty minutes afta tha Resurrection, as tha disciplez look on, "he was lifted up, n' a cold-ass lil cloud took his ass outta they sight". 1 Peta 3:22 states dat Jizzy has "gone tha fuck into heaven n' be all up in tha right hand of God".

Da Actz of tha Apostlez raps bout nuff muthafuckin appearancez of Jizzy afta his Ascension. I aint talkin' bout chicken n' gravy biatch. In Acts 7:55, Stephen gazes tha fuck into heaven n' sees "Jizzy standin all up in tha right hand of God" just before his fuckin lil' dirtnap.[240] On tha road ta Damascus, tha Apostle Pizzle is converted ta Christianitizzle afta seein a funky-ass blindin light n' hearin a voice saying, "I be Jizzy, whom yo ass is persecuting" (Acts 9:5). In Acts 9:10�"18, Jizzy instructs Ananiaz of Damascus up in a vision ta heal Paul.[241] Da Book of Revelation includes a revelation from Jizzy concernin tha last days.[242]

Early Christianity

Afta Jizzy' game, his wild lil' followers, as busted lyrics bout up in tha straight-up original gangsta chaptaz of tha Actz of tha Apostlez, was all Jews either by birth or conversion, fo' which tha biblical term "proselyte" is used,[243] n' referred ta by historians as Jewish Christians. Da early Gospel message was spread orally, probably up in Aramaic, but almost immediately also up in Greek.[245] Da New Testamentz Actz of tha Apostlez n' Epistle ta tha Galatians record dat tha straight-up original gangsta Christian hood was centered up in Jerusalem n' its leadaz included Peter, James, tha brutha of Jizzy, n' Jizzy tha Apostle.[246]

Afta tha conversion of Pizzle tha Apostle, his schmoooove ass fronted tha title of "Apostle ta tha Gentiles". Paulz influence on Christian thankin is holla'd ta be mo' dope than dat of any other New Testament author.[247] By tha end of tha 1st century, Christianitizzle fuckin started ta be recognized internally n' externally as a separate religion from Judaism which itself was refined n' pimped further up in tha centuries afta tha destruction of tha Second Temple.[248]

Numerous quotations up in tha New Testament n' other Christian writingz of tha straight-up original gangsta centuries, indicate dat early Christians generally used n' revered tha Hebrew Bizzle (the Tanakh) as religious text, mostly up in tha Greek (Septuagint) or Aramaic (Targum) translations.[249]

Early Christians freestyled nuff religious works, includin tha ones included up in tha canon of tha New Testament. Da canonical texts, which have become tha main sources used by historians ta try ta KNOW tha oldschool Jizzy n' sacred texts within Christianity, was probably freestyled between 50 n' 120 AD.[250]

Oldschool views

Prior ta tha Enlightenment, tha gospels was probably regarded as accurate oldschool accounts yo, but since then scholars have emerged whoz ass question tha reliabilitizzle of tha gospels n' draw a gangbangin' finger-lickin' distinction between tha Jizzy busted lyrics bout up in tha gospels n' tha Jizzy of history. Since tha 18th century, three separate scholarly quests fo' tha oldschool Jizzy have taken place, each wit distinct characteristics n' based on different research criteria, which was often pimped durin tha quest dat applied dem wild-ass muthafuckas. While there is widespread scholarly agreement on tha existence of Jizzy,[g] n' a funky-ass basic consensus on tha general outline of his wild lil' freakadelic game,[o] tha portraitz of Jizzy constructed by various scholars often differ from each other, n' from tha image portrayed up in tha gospel accounts.[255]

Approaches ta tha oldschool reconstruction of tha game of Jizzy have varied from tha "maximalist" approachez of tha 19th century, up in which tha gospel accounts was accepted as reliable evidence wherever it is possible, ta tha "minimalist" approachez of tha early 20th century, where hardly anythang bout Jizzy was accepted as historical. In tha 1950s, as tha second quest fo' tha oldschool Jizzy gathered pace, tha minimalist approaches faded away, n' up in tha 21st century, minimalists like fuckin Price is a straight-up lil' small-ass minority. Although a funky-ass belief up in tha inerrancy of tha gospels cannot be supported historically, nuff scholars since tha 1980s have held that, beyond tha few facts considered ta be historically certain, certain other elementz of Jizzy' game is "historically probable".[259] Modern scholarly research on tha oldschool Jizzy thus focuses on identifyin da most thugged-out probable elements.[261]

Judea n' Galilee up in tha 1st century

Judea, Galilee n' neighborin areas all up in tha time of Jizzy

In AD 6, Judea, Idumea, n' Samaria was transformed from a client mackdaddydom of tha Roman Empire tha fuck into a imperial province, also called Judea fo' realz. A Roman prefect, rather than a cold-ass lil client mackdaddy, ruled tha land. Y'all KNOW dat shit, muthafucka! Da prefect ruled from Caesarea Maritima, leavin Jerusalem ta be run by tha High Priest of Israel fo' realz. As a exception, tha prefect came ta Jerusalem durin religious gangbangs, when religious n' patriotic enthusiazzle sometimes inspired unrest or uprisings. Gentile landz surrounded tha Jewish territoriez of Judea n' Galilee yo, but Roman law n' practice allowed Jews ta remain separate legally n' culturally. Galilee was evidently prosperous, n' poverty was limited enough dat it did not threaten tha hood order.[47]

This was tha era of Hellenistic Judaism, which combined Jewish religious tradition wit elementz of Hellenistic Greek culture. Until tha fall of tha Westside Roman Empire n' tha Muslim conquests of tha Eastside Mediterranean, tha main centaz of Hellenistic Judaizzle was Alexandria (Egypt) n' Antioch (now Downtown Turkey), tha two main Greek urban settlements of tha Middle Eastside n' Uptown Africa area, both dropped all up in tha end of tha 4th century BCE up in tha wake of tha conquestz of Alexander tha Great yo. Hellenistic Judaizzle also existed up in Jerusalem durin tha Second Temple Period, where there was conflict between Hellenizers n' traditionalists (sometimes called Judaizers). Da Hebrew Bizzle was translated from Biblical Hebrew n' Biblical Aramaic tha fuck into Jewish Koine Greek; tha Targum translations tha fuck into Aramaic was also generated durin dis era, both cuz of tha decline of knowledge of Hebrew.[263]

Jews based they faith n' religious practice on tha Torah, five books holla'd ta done been given by Dogg ta Moses. Da three prominent religious partizzles was tha Pharisees, tha Essenes, n' tha Sadducees. Together these partizzles represented only a lil' small-ass fraction of tha population. I aint talkin' bout chicken n' gravy biatch. Most Jews looked forward ta a time dat Dogg would serve up dem from they pagan rulers, possibly all up in war against tha Romans.[47]

Sources

A 1640 edizzle of tha workz of Josephus, a 1st-century Roman-Jewish historian whoz ass referred ta Jizzy.

New Testament scholars grill a gangbangin' formidable challenge when they analyze tha canonical Gospels. Da Gospels aint biographies up in tha modern sense, n' tha authors explain Jizzy' theological significizzle n' recount his thugged-out lil' hood ministry while omittin nuff detailz of his wild lil' freakadelic game. Da reportz of supernatural events associated wit Jizzy' dirtnap n' resurrection make tha challenge even mo' difficult. Scholars regard tha gospels as compromised sourcez of shiznit cuz tha writas was tryin ta glorify Jizzy. Even so, tha sources fo' Jizzy' game is betta than sources scholars have fo' tha game of Alexander tha Great. Scholars bust a fuckin shitload of criteria, like fuckin tha criterion of independent attestation, tha criterion of coherence, n' tha criterion of discontinuity ta judge tha historicitizzle of events. Da historicitizzle of a event also dependz on tha reliabilitizzle of tha source; indeed, tha gospels aint independent nor consistent recordz of Jizzy' game. Mark, which is most likely tha earliest freestyled gospel, has been considered fo' nuff decades da most thugged-out historically accurate.[267] John, tha sickest fuckin freestyled gospel, differs considerably from tha Synoptic Gospels, n' thus is generally considered less reliable, although mo' n' mo' scholars now also recognize dat it may contain a cold-ass lil core of olda material as historically valuable as tha Synoptic tradizzle or even mo' so.[268]

Da non-canonical Gospel of Thomas might be a independent witnizz ta nuff of Jizzy' parablez n' aphorisms. Boy it's gettin hot, yes indeed it is. For example, Thomas confirms dat Jizzy pimped tha skanky n' dat dis sayin circulated independently before bein combined wit similar sayings up in tha Q source. Other select non-canonical Christian texts may also have value fo' oldschool Jizzy research.

Early non-Christian sources dat attest ta tha oldschool existence of Jizzy include tha workz of tha historians Josephus n' Tacitus.[p] Josephus scholar Louis Feldman has stated dat "few have doubted tha genuineness" of Josephus' reference ta Jizzy up in book 20 of tha Antiquitizzlez of tha Jews, n' it is disputed only by a lil' small-ass number of scholars.[273] Tacitus referred ta Christ n' his wild lil' fuckin execution by Pilate up in book 15 of his work Annals. Right back up in yo muthafuckin ass. Scholars generally consider Tacitus' reference ta tha execution of Jizzy ta be both authentic n' of oldschool value as a independent Roman source.[274]

Non-Christian sources is valuable up in two ways. First, they show dat even neutral or straight-up shitty partizzles never show any doubt dat Jizzy straight-up existed. Y'all KNOW dat shit, muthafucka! This type'a shiznit happens all tha time. Right back up in yo muthafuckin ass. Second, they present a rough picture of Jizzy dat is compatible wit dat found up in tha Christian sources: dat Jizzy was a mackdaddy, had a hype as a miracle worker, had a funky-ass brutha James, n' took a dirt nap a violent dirtnap.

Archaeologizzle helps scholars betta KNOW Jizzy' hood ghetto. Right back up in yo muthafuckin ass. Recent archaeological work, fo' example, indicates dat Capernaum, a cold-ass lil hood blingin up in Jizzy' ministry, was skanky n' small, without even a forum or a agora.[276][277] This archaeological discovery resonates well wit tha scholarly view dat Jizzy advocated reciprocal pluggin among tha destitute up in dat area of Galilee.[276]

Chronology

Jizzy was a Galilean Jew, born round tha beginnin of tha 1st century, whoz ass took a dirt nap up in 30 or 33 AD up in Judea. Da general scholarly consensus is dat Jizzy was a cold-ass lil contemporary of Jizzy tha Baptist n' was crucified by tha Roman governor Pontius Pilate, whoz ass held crib from 26 ta 36 AD.

Da gospels offer nuff muthafuckin indications concernin tha year of Jizzy' birth. Matthew 2:1 associates tha birth of Jizzy wit tha reign of Herod tha Great, whoz ass took a dirt nap round 4 BC, n' Luke 1:5 mentions dat Herod was on tha throne shortly before tha birth of Jizzy, although dis gospel also associates tha birth wit tha Censuz of Quirinius which took place ten muthafuckin years later. Luke 3:23 states dat Jizzy was "about thirty muthafuckin years old" all up in tha start of his ministry, which accordin ta Acts 10:37�"38 was preceded by Jizzy tha Baptistz ministry, which was recorded up in Luke 3:1�"2 ta have begun up in tha 15th year of Tiberius' reign (28 or 29 AD).[282] By collatin tha gospel accounts wit oldschool data n' rockin various other methods, most scholars arrive at a thugged-out date of birth fo' Jizzy between 6 n' 4 BC,[282] but some propose estimates dat include a wider range.[q]

Da date range fo' Jizzy' ministry done been estimated rockin nuff muthafuckin different approaches. One of these applies tha reference up in Luke 3:1�"2, Acts 10:37�"38 n' tha datez of Tiberius' reign, which is well known, ta give a thugged-out date of round 28�"29 AD fo' tha start of Jizzy' ministry. Another approach estimates a thugged-out date round 27�"29 AD by rockin tha statement bout tha temple up in Jizzy 2:13�"20, which asserts dat tha temple up in Jerusalem was up in its 46th year of construction all up in tha start of Jizzy' ministry, together wit Josephus' statement dat tha templez reconstruction was started by Herod tha Great up in tha 18th year of his bangin reign. A further method uses tha date of tha death of Jizzy tha Baptist n' tha marriage of Herod Antipas ta Herodias, based on tha writingz of Josephus, n' correlates it wit Matthew 14:4 n' Mark 6:18.[288][289] Given dat most scholars date tha marriage of Herod n' Herodias as AD 28�"35, dis yieldz a thugged-out date bout 28�"29 AD.

A number of approaches done been used ta estimate tha year of tha crucifixion of Jizzy. Most scholars smoke dat da ruffneck took a dirt nap up in 30 or 33 AD. Da gospels state dat tha event occurred durin tha prefecture of Pilate, tha Roman governor of Judea from 26 ta 36 AD.[292] Da date fo' tha conversion of Paul (estimated ta be 33�"36 AD) acts as a upper bound fo' tha date of Crucifixion. I aint talkin' bout chicken n' gravy biatch. Da dates fo' Paulz conversion n' ministry can be determined by analyzin tha Pauline epistlez n' tha Actz of tha Apostlez.[295] Astronomers have tried ta estimate tha precise date of tha Crucifixion by analyzin lunar motion n' calculatin phat datez of Passover, a gangbang based on tha lunisolar Hebrew calendar. Da most widely accepted dates derived from dis method is April 7, 30 AD, n' April 3, 33 AD (both Julian).[296]

Historicitizzle of events

Annals, a history of tha Roman Empire durin tha 1st century. Roman senator n' historian Tacitus mentioned tha execution of "Christus" (Jesus) by Pilate up in a passage describin tha Great Fire of Rome n' Nero z persecution of Christians up in tha, a history of tha Roman Empire durin tha 1st century.

Yo, scholars have reached a limited consensus on tha basics of Jizzy' game.[297]

Family

Many scholars smoke dat Joseph, Jizzy' father, took a dirt nap before Jizzy fuckin started his crazy-ass ministry. Joseph aint mentioned at all up in tha gospels durin Jizzy' ministry. Josephz dirtnap would explain why up in Mark 6:3, Jizzy' neighbors refer ta Jizzy as tha "son of Mary" (sons was probably identified by they fathers).

Accordin ta Theissen n' Merz, it is common fo' extraordinary charismatic leaders, like fuckin Jizzy, ta come tha fuck into conflict wit they ordinary crews. In Mark, Jizzy' crew comes ta git him, fearin dat he is mad (Mark 3:20�"34), n' dis account is thought ta be oldschool cuz early Christians wannaly not have invented dat shit.[300] Afta Jizzy' dirtnap, nuff thugz of his crew joined tha Christian movement. Jizzy' brutha James became a leader of tha Jerusalem Church.

Géza Vermes say dat tha doctrine of tha virgin birth of Jizzy arose from theological pimpment rather than from oldschool events. Despite tha widely held view dat tha authorz of tha Synoptic Gospels drew upon each other (the so-called synoptic problem), other scholars take it as dope dat tha virgin birth is attested by two separate gospels, Matthew n' Luke.[303][305][306][307][308]

Accordin ta E. P. Right back up in yo muthafuckin ass. Sanders, tha birth narratives up in Matthew n' Luke is tha clearest case of invention up in tha Gospel narrativez of Jizzy' game. Both accounts have Jizzy born up in Bethlehem, up in accordizzle wit Jewish salvation history, n' both have his ass growin up in Nazareth. But Sandaz points dat tha two Gospels report straight-up different n' irreconcilable explanations fo' how tha fuck dat happened. Y'all KNOW dat shit, muthafucka! Lukez account of a cold-ass lil census up in which mah playas moonwalked back ta they ancestral ghettos aint plausible. Matthewz account is mo' plausible yo, but tha rap readz as though dat shiznit was invented ta identify Jizzy as like a freshly smoked up Moses, n' tha historian Josephus reports Herod tha Greatz brutalitizzle without eva mentionin dat he massacred lil thugs.

Yo, sandaz say dat tha genealogiez of Jizzy is based not on oldschool shiznit but on tha authors' desire ta show dat Jizzy was tha universal Jewish savior. In any event, once tha doctrine of tha virgin birth of Jizzy became established, dat tradizzle superseded tha earlier tradizzle dat da thug was descended from David all up in Joseph. Luke reports dat Jizzy was a blood relation of Jizzy tha Baptist yo, but scholars generally consider dis connection ta be invented.[311]

Baptism

Baptizzle up in tha Jordan River, tha river where Jizzy was baptized

Most modern scholars consider Jizzy' baptizzle ta be a thugged-out definite oldschool fact, along wit his crucifixion. Theologian Jizzy D. G. Dunn states dat they "command almost universal assent" n' "rank so high on tha 'almost impossible ta doubt or deny' scale of oldschool facts" dat they is often tha startin points fo' tha study of tha oldschool Jizzy. Scholars adduce tha criterion of embarrassment, sayin dat early Christians would not have invented a funky-ass baptizzle dat might imply dat Jizzy committed sins n' wanted ta repent.[313] Accordin ta Theissen n' Merz, Jizzy was inspired by Jizzy tha Baptist n' took over from his ass nuff elementz of his cold-ass teaching.

Ministry up in Galilee

Most scholars hold dat Jizzy lived up in Galilee n' Judea n' did not preach or study elsewhere.[315] They smoke dat Jizzy debated wit Jewish authoritizzles on tha subject of God, performed some healings, taught up in parablez n' gathered followers. Jizzy' Jewish muthafuckas considered his crazy-ass ministry ta be scandalous cuz he feasted wit sinners, fraternized wit dem hoes, n' allowed his wild lil' followers ta pluck grain on tha Sabbath. Accordin ta Sanders, it aint plausible dat beef over how tha fuck ta interpret tha Law of Moses n' tha Sabbath would have hustled Jewish authoritizzles ta want Jizzy capped.

Accordin ta Ehrman, Jizzy taught dat a cold-ass lil comin mackdaddydom was everyonez proper focus, not anythang up in dis game. Dude taught bout tha Jewish Law, seekin its legit meaning, sometimes up in opposizzle ta other traditions. Jizzy put ludd all up in tha centa of tha Law, n' followin dat Law was a apocalyptic necessity. His ethical teachings called fo' forgiveness, not judgin others, gangbangin enemies, n' carin fo' tha skanky. Funk n' Hoover note dat typical of Jizzy was paradoxical or surprisin turnz of phrase, like fuckin advisin one, when struck on tha cheek, to offer tha other cheek ta be struck as well (Luke 6:29).

Da Gospels portray Jizzy teachin up in well-defined sessions, like fuckin tha Sermon on tha Mount up in tha Gospel of Matthew or tha parallel Sermon on tha Plain up in Luke fo' realz. Accordin ta Gerd Theissen n' Annette Merz, these teachin sessions include authentic teachingz of Jizzy yo, but tha scenes was invented by tha respectizzle evangelists ta frame these teachings, which had originally been recorded without context. While Jizzy' miraclez fit within tha hood context of antiquity, da ruffneck defined dem differently. First, he attributed dem ta tha faith of dem healed. Y'all KNOW dat shit, muthafucka! Second, his schmoooove ass connected dem ta end times prophecy.

Jizzy chose twelve disciplez (the "Twelve"), evidently as a apocalyptic message. All three Synoptics mention tha Twelve, although tha names on Lukez list vary from dem up in Mark n' Matthew, suggestin dat Christians was not certain whoz ass all tha disciplez were. Da twelve disciplez might have represented tha twelve original gangsta tribez of Israel, which would be restored once Godz rule was instituted. Da disciplez was reportedly meant ta be tha rulaz of tha tribes up in tha comin Mackdaddydom (Matthew 19:28, Luke 22:30). Accordin ta Bart Ehrman, Jizzy' promise dat tha Twelve would rule is historical, cuz tha Twelve included Judas Iscariot. In Ehrmanz view, no Christians would have invented a line from Jizzy, promisin rulershizzle ta tha disciple whoz ass betrayed his muthafuckin ass. In Mark, tha disciplez play hardly any role other than a wack one. While others sometimes respond ta Jizzy wit complete faith, his fuckin lil' disciplez is puzzled n' doubtful. They serve as a foil ta Jizzy n' ta other characters. Da failingz of tha disciplez is probably exaggerated up in Mark, n' tha disciplez cook up a funky-ass betta showin up in Matthew n' Luke.

Yo, sandaz say dat Jizzy' mission was not bout repentance, although he acknowledges dat dis opinion is unpopular yo. Dude argues dat repentizzle appears as a phat theme only up in Luke, dat repentizzle was Jizzy tha Baptistz message, n' dat Jizzy' ministry would not done been scandalous if tha sinners he ate wit had been repentant. Accordin ta Theissen n' Merz, Jizzy taught dat Dogg was generously givin playas a opportunitizzle ta repent.

Role

Jizzy taught dat a apocalyptic figure, tha "Son of Man", would soon come on cloudz of glory ta gather tha elect, or chosen ones (Mark 13:24�"27, Matthew 24:29�"31, Luke 21:25�"28) yo. Dude referred ta his dirty ass as a "son of dude" up in tha colloquial sense of "a person" yo, but scholars do not know whether he also meant his dirty ass when he referred ta tha heavenly "Son of Man". Pizzle tha Apostle n' other early Christians interpreted tha "Son of Man" as tha risen Jizzy.[47]

Da title Christ, or Messiah, indicates dat Jizzy' followers believed his ass ta be tha anointed heir of Mackdaddy David, whom some Jews sposed ta fuckin save Israel. Da Gospels refer ta his ass not only as a Messiah but up in tha absolute form as "the Messiah" or, equivalently, "the Christ". In early Judaism, dis absolute form of tha title aint found yo, but only phrases like fuckin "his Messiah". Da tradizzle be ambiguous enough ta leave room fo' rap battle as ta whether Jizzy defined his eschatological role as dat of tha Messiah. Da Jewish messianic tradizzle included nuff different forms, a shitload of dem focused on a Messiah figure n' others not. Based on tha Christian tradition, Gerd Theissen advances tha hypothesis dat Jizzy saw his dirty ass up in messianic terms but did not claim tha title "Messiah". Bart Ehrman argues dat Jizzy did consider his dirty ass ta be tha Messiah, albeit up in tha sense dat da thug would be tha mackdaddy of tha freshly smoked up ballistical order dat Dogg would usher in,[329] not up in tha sense dat most playas todizzle be thinkin of tha term.[330]

Passover n' crucifixion up in Jerusalem

Around AD 30, Jizzy n' his wild lil' followers traveled from Galilee ta Jerusalem ta observe Passover. Jizzy caused a gangbangin' finger-lickin' disturbizzle up in tha Second Temple, which was tha centa of Jewish religious n' civil authority. Right back up in yo muthafuckin ass. Sandaz associates it wit Jizzy' prophecy dat tha Temple would be straight-up demolished. Jizzy held a last meal wit his fuckin lil' disciples, which is tha origin of tha Christian sacrament of bread n' dat schmoooooove alcatronic shiznit yo. His lyrics as recorded up in tha Synoptic gospels n' Paulz First Letta ta tha Corinthians do not entirely agree yo, but dis symbolic meal appears ta have pointed ta Jizzy' place up in tha comin Mackdaddydom of Dogg when straight-up probably Jizzy knew da thug was bout ta be capped, although he may have still hoped dat Dogg might yet intervene.

Da Gospels say dat Jizzy was betrayed ta tha authoritizzles by a gangbangin' finger-lickin' disciple, n' nuff scholars consider dis report ta be highly reliable. Dude was executed on tha ordaz of Pontius Pilate, tha Roman prefect of Judaea. Pilate most likely saw Jizzy' reference ta tha Mackdaddydom of Dogg as a threat ta Roman authoritizzle n' hit dat shiznit wit tha Temple elites ta have Jizzy executed. Da Sadducean high-priestly leadaz of tha Temple mo' plausibly had Jizzy executed fo' ballistical reasons than fo' his cold-ass teaching. They may have regarded his ass as a threat ta stability, especially afta his schmoooove ass caused a gangbangin' finger-lickin' disturbizzle all up in tha Second Temple.[42] Other factors, like fuckin Jizzy' triumphal entry tha fuck into Jerusalem, may have contributed ta dis decision. Most scholars consider Jizzy' crucifixion ta be factual, cuz early Christians would not have invented tha fucked up dirtnap of they leader.

Afta crucifixion

La Boner de Nostre Seigneur Da Resurrection of Christ from a 16th-century manuscript of

Afta Jizzy' dirtnap, his wild lil' followers holla'd he rose from tha dead, although exact detailz of they experiences is unclear. Shiiit, dis aint no joke. Da Gospel reports contradict each other, possibly suggestin competizzle among dem frontin ta have peeped his ass first rather than deliberate fraud. On tha other hand, L. Mike White suggests dat inconsistencies up in tha Gospels reflect differences up in tha agendaz of they unknown authors.[297] Da followerz of Jizzy formed a cold-ass lil hood ta wait fo' his bangin return n' tha foundin of his mackdaddydom.

Portraitz of Jizzy

Modern research on tha oldschool Jizzy has not hustled ta a unified picture of tha oldschool figure, kinda cuz of tha variety of academic traditions represented by tha scholars. Given tha scarcitizzle of oldschool sources, it is generally hard as fuck fo' any scholar ta construct a portrait of Jizzy dat can be considered historically valid beyond tha basic elementz of his wild lil' freakadelic game. Da portraitz of Jizzy constructed up in these quests often differ from each other, n' from tha image portrayed up in tha gospels.

Jizzy is peeped as tha smoker of, up in tha lyrics of Sanders, a '"renewal movement within Judaism." One of tha criteria used ta discern oldschool details up in tha "third quest" is tha criterion of plausibility, relatizzle ta Jizzy' Jewish context n' ta his crazy-ass muthafuckin influence on Christianitizzle fo' realz. A beef up in contemporary research is whether Jizzy was apocalyptic. Most scholars conclude dat da thug was a apocalyptic preacher, like Jizzy tha Baptist n' Pizzle tha Apostle. In contrast, certain prominent Uptown Gangsta scholars, like fuckin Burton Mack n' Jizzy Dominic Crossan, advocate fo' a non-eschatological Jizzy, one whoz ass is mo' of a Cynic sage than a apocalyptic preacher. In addizzle ta portrayin Jizzy as a apocalyptic prophet, a cold-ass lil charismatic heala or a cynic philosopher, some scholars portray his ass as tha legit Messiah or a egalitarian prophet of social chizzle.[340] But fuck dat shiznit yo, tha word on tha street is dat tha attributes busted lyrics bout up in tha portraits sometimes overlap, n' scholars whoz ass differ on some attributes sometimes smoke on others.[342]

Yo, since tha 18th century, scholars have occasionally put forth dat Jizzy was a ballistical nationistic messiah yo, but tha evidence fo' dis portrait is negligible. Likewise, tha proposal dat Jizzy was a Zealot do not fit wit tha earliest strata of tha Synoptic tradition.

Language, ethnicity, n' appearance

[344] Da ethnicitizzle of Jizzy up in art has been hyped up by cultural settings.

Jizzy grew up in Galilee n' much of his crazy-ass ministry took place there. Da languages spoken up in Galilee n' Judea durin tha 1st century AD include Jewish Palestinian Aramaic, Hebrew, n' Greek, wit Aramaic bein predominant.[346][347] There is substantial consensus dat Jizzy gave most of his cold-ass teachings up in Aramaic up in tha Galilean dialect.[349][350]

Modern scholars smoke dat Jizzy was a Jew of 1st-century Palestine.[352] Ioudaios up in New Testament Greek[r] be a term which up in tha contemporary context may refer ta religion (Second Temple Judaism), ethnicitizzle (of Judea), or both.[354][355][356] In a review of tha state of modern scholarship, Amy-Jill Levine writes dat tha entire question of ethnicitizzle is "fraught wit difficulty", n' dat "beyond recognizin dat 'Jizzy was Jewish', rarely do tha scholarshizzle address what tha fuck bein 'Jewish' means".

Da New Testament gives no description of tha physical appearizzle of Jizzy before his fuckin lil' dirtnap�"it is generally indifferent ta racial appearances n' do not refer ta tha featurez of tha playas it mentions.[358][359][360] Jizzy probably looked like a typical Jew of his cold-ass time n' accordin ta some scholars was likely ta have had a sinewy appearizzle cuz of his ascetic n' itinerant gamestyle.[361] One scholar has drawn on biblical n' extra-biblical sources, ta suggest a appearizzle of Jizzy much different from dat of Westside art.[362] Unlike such depictions, his threadz may have suggested poverty consistin of a mantle (shawl) wit tassels, a knee-length basic tunic n' sandals.[363]

Christ myth theory

Da Christ myth theory is tha hypothesis dat Jizzy of Nazareth never existed; or if da ruffneck did, dat dat schmoooove muthafucka had virtually not a god damn thang ta do wit tha foundin of Christianitizzle n' tha accounts up in tha gospels.[s] Storiez of Jizzy' birth, along wit other key events, have all kindsa muthafuckin mythic elements dat some scholars have suggested dat Jizzy his dirty ass was a myth. Bruno Bauer (1809�"1882) taught dat tha straight-up original gangsta Gospel was a work of literature dat produced history rather than busted lyrics bout dat shit. Accordin ta Albert Kalthoff (1850�"1906) a hood movement produced Jizzy when it encountered Jewish messianic expectations. Arthur Drews (1865�"1935) saw Jizzy as tha concrete form of a myth dat predated Christianity. Despite arguments put forward by authors whoz ass have dissed tha existence of a historical Jizzy, there remains a phat consensus up in historical-critical biblical scholarship dat a oldschool Jizzy did live up in dat area n' up in dat time period.[367][368][369][370][371][373]

Perspectives

Apart from his own disciplez n' followers, tha Jewz of Jizzy' dizzle generally rejected his ass as tha Messiah, as do tha pimped out majoritizzle of Jews todizzle. It make me wanna hollar playa! Christian theologians, ecumenical councils, reformers n' others have freestyled extensively bout Jizzy over tha centuries. Put ya muthafuckin choppers up if ya feel dis! Christian sects n' schisms have often been defined or characterized by they descriptionz of Jizzy. Meanwhile, Manichaeans, Gnostics, Muslims, Druzes,[374][375] Baha'is, n' others have found prominent places fo' Jizzy up in they religions.[376][377][378]

Christian

Jizzy is depicted wit tha Alpha n' Omega lettas up in tha catacombz of Rome from tha 4th century.

Jizzy is tha central figure of Christianity. Although Christian viewz of Jizzy vary, it is possible ta summarize tha key beliefs shared among major denominations, as stated up in they catechetical or confessional texts.[379][380][381] Christian viewz of Jizzy is derived from various sources, includin tha canonical gospels n' New Testament lettas like fuckin tha Pauline epistlez n' tha Johannine writings. These documents outline tha key beliefs held by Christians bout Jizzy, includin his fuckin lil' divinity, humanity, n' earthly game, n' dat he is tha Christ n' tha Son of God.[382] Despite they nuff shared beliefs, not all Christian denominations smoke on all doctrines, n' both major n' minor differences on teachings n' beliefs have persisted all up in Christianitizzle fo' centuries.

Da New Testament states dat tha resurrection of Jizzy is tha foundation of tha Christian faith (1 Corinthians 15:12�"20).[384] Christians believe dat all up in his sacrificial dirtnap n' resurrection, humans can be reconciled wit God n' is thereby offered salvation n' tha promise of eternal game.[32] Recallin tha lyrics of Jizzy tha Baptist on tha dizzle afta Jizzy' baptism, these doctrines sometimes refer ta Jizzy as tha Lamb of God, whoz ass was crucified ta fulfill his bangin role as tha servant of Dogg.[385][386] Jizzy is thus peeped as tha new n' last Adam, whose obedience contrasts wit Adamz disobedience.[387] Christians view Jizzy as a role model, whose God-focused game believers is encouraged ta imitate.

Most Christians believe dat Jizzy was both human n' tha Son of Dogg.[14] While there has been theological debate over his nature,[t] Trinitarian Christians generally believe dat Jizzy is tha Logos, Godz incarnation n' Dogg tha Son, both straight-up divine n' straight-up human. I aint talkin' bout chicken n' gravy biatch. But fuck dat shiznit yo, tha word on tha street is dat tha doctrine of tha Trinitizzle aint universally accepted among Christians.[389][390] With tha Protestant Reformation, Christians like fuckin Mike Servetus n' tha Socinians started dissin tha ancient creedz dat had established Jizzy' two natures.[47] Nontrinitarian Christian crews include Da Church of Jizzy Christ of Latter-dizzle Saints,[391] Unitarians n' Jehovahz Witnesses.

Christians revere not only Jizzy his dirty ass yo, but also his name. Devotions ta tha Holy Name of Jizzy go back ta tha earliest minutez of Christianity.[392] These devotions n' feasts exist up in both Eastern n' Westside Christianity.

Jewish

A central tenet of Judaizzle is the absolute unitizzle n' singularitizzle of God (Deuteronomizzle 6:4), n' tha worshizzle of a thug is understood as a gangbangin' form of idolatry.[394] Therefore, Judaism rejects tha scam of Jizzy (or any future Jewish Messiah) bein God,[42] or a mediator ta God, or part of a Trinity.[395] It holdz dat Jizzy aint tha Messiah, jumpin off bout some shiznit dat he neither fulfilled tha Messianic prophecies up in tha Tanakh nor embodied tha underground qualificationz of tha Messiah.[396] Jews argue dat Jizzy did not fulfill prophesies ta build tha Third Temple (Ezekiel 37:26�"28), gather Jews back ta Israel (Isaiah 43:5�"6), brang ghetto peace (Isaiah 2:4), n' unite humanitizzle under tha Dogg of Israel (Zechariah 14:9).[397] Furthermore, accordin ta Jewish tradition, there was no prophets afta Malachi,[398] whoz ass served up his thugged-out lil' prophesies up in tha 5th century BC.[399]

Judaic jive-ass shiznit of Jizzy is long-standing. Da Talmud, freestyled n' compiled from tha 3rd ta tha 5th century AD,[400] includes stories dat since medieval times done been considered ta be defamatory accountz of Jizzy.[401] In one such story, Yeshu HaNozri ("Jizzy tha Nazarene"), a lewd apostate, is executed by tha Jewish high court fo' spreadin idolatry n' practicin magic.[402] Da majoritizzle of contemporary scholars consider dat dis material serves up no shiznit on tha oldschool Jizzy. Da Mishneh Torah, a late 12th-century work of Jewish law freestyled by Moses Maimonides, states dat Jizzy be a "stumblin block" whoz ass make "the majoritizzle of tha ghetto ta err n' serve a god other than tha Lord".[404]

Medieval Hebrew literature gotz nuff tha anecdotal "Episode of Jizzy" (known also as Toledot Yeshu), up in which Jizzy is busted lyrics bout as bein tha lil hustla of Joseph, tha lil hustla of Pandera (see: Episode of Jizzy). Da account portrays Jizzy as a impostor.[405]

Islamic

A major git into in Islam,[38][40] Jizzy (commonly transliterated as ʾĪsā) is considered ta be a messenger of Dogg (Allah) n' tha messiah (al-Masih) whoz ass was busted ta guide tha Lil Pimpz of Israel (Bani Isra'il) wit a freshly smoked up scripture, tha Gospel (referred ta up in Islam as Injil).[39][406] Muslims regard tha gospelz of tha New Testament as partially authentic, n' believe dat Jizzy' original gangsta message was altered n' dat Muhammad came lata ta revive dat shit.[407] Belief up in Jizzy (and all other messengerz of God) be a requirement fo' bein a Muslim.[408] Da Quran mentions Jizzy by name 25 times�"more often than Muhammad[409][410]�"and emphasizes dat Jizzy was a mortal human who, like all other prophets, had been divinely chosen ta spread Godz message.[411] While tha Qur'an affirms tha Virgin birth of Jizzy, he is considered ta be neither a incarnation nor a begotten God. Islamic texts emphasize a strict notion of monotheism (tawhid) n' forbid tha association of partners wit God, which would be idolatry.[412]

Da Quran raps bout tha annunciation ta Mary (Maryam) by tha Holy Spirit dat her ass is ta give birth ta Jizzy while remainin a virgin. I aint talkin' bout chicken n' gravy biatch. Well shiiiit, it calls tha virgin birth a miracle dat occurred by tha will of Dogg.[413][414] Da Quran (21:91 n' 66:12) states dat Dogg breathed his spirit tha fuck into Mary while dat biiiiatch was chaste.[413][414] Jizzy is called a "spirit from God" cuz da thug started doin thangs all up in tha action of tha Spirit,[413] but dat belief do not imply his pre-existence.[415]

To aid up in his crazy-ass ministry ta tha Jewish people, Jizzy was given tha mobilitizzle ta big-ass up miraclez, by permission of Dogg rather than by his own power.[41] Through his crazy-ass ministry, Jizzy is peeped as a precursor ta Muhammad.[411] Accordin ta tha Quran, Jizzy was not capped but was merely made ta appear dat way ta unbelievers,[416] n' da thug was physically raised tha fuck into tha heavens by Dogg.[417] To Muslims, it is tha ascension rather than tha crucifixion dat constitutes a major event up in tha game of Jizzy.[418] Muslims believe dat Jizzy will return ta Earth all up in tha end of time n' defeat tha Antichrist (ad-Dajjal) by cappin' his muthafuckin ass.[39]

Ahmadiyya Islam

Da Ahmadiyya Muslim Communitizzle has nuff muthafuckin distinct teachings bout Jizzy fo' realz. Ahmadis believe dat da thug was a mortal playa whoz ass survived his crucifixion n' took a dirt nap a natural dirtnap all up in tha age of 120 up in Kashmir, India n' is buried at Roza Bal.[419]

Bahá'í

Bahá'í teachings consider Jizzy ta be a manifestation of God, a Bahá'í concept fo' prophets[420]�"intermediaries between Dogg n' humanity, servin as messengers n' reflectin Godz qualitizzles n' attributes.[421] Da Bahá'í concept emphasizes tha simultaneous qualitizzlez of humanitizzle n' divinity;[421] thus, it is similar ta tha Christian concept of incarnation.[420] Bahá'í thought accepts Jizzy as tha Son of Dogg.[422] In Bahá'í thought, Jizzy was a slick incarnation of Godz attributes yo, but Bahá'í teachings reject tha scam dat "ineffable essence" of tha Divinitizzle was contained within a single human body cuz of they beliefs regardin "omnipresence n' transcendence of tha essence of God".[420]

Bahá'u'lláh, tha smoker of tha Bahá'í Faith, freestyled dat since each manifestation of Dogg has tha same ol' dirty divine attributes, they can be peeped as tha spiritual "return" of all previous manifestationz of God, n' tha appearizzle of each freshly smoked up manifestation of Dogg inaugurates a religion dat supersedes tha forma ones, a cold-ass lil concept known as progressive revelation.[421] Bahá'ís believe dat Godz plan unfoldz gradually all up in dis process as mankind matures, n' dat a shitload of tha manifestations arrive up in specific fulfillment of tha missionz of previous ones. Thus, Bahá'ís believe dat Bahá'u'lláh is tha promised return of Christ.[423] Bahá'í teachings confirm nuff yo, but not all, aspectz of Jizzy as portrayed up in tha gospels. Bahá'ís believe up in tha virgin birth n' up in tha Crucifixion,[424][425] but peep tha Resurrection n' tha miraclez of Jizzy as symbolic.[422][425]

Other

c. 10th-century Qocho. Enthroned Jizzy image on a Manichaean temple banner from

In Christian Gnosticizzle (now a largely extinct religious movement),[426] Jizzy was busted from tha divine realm n' provided tha secret knowledge (gnosis) necessary fo' salvation. I aint talkin' bout chicken n' gravy biatch. Most Gnostics believed dat Jizzy was a human whoz ass became possessed by tha spirit of "the Christ" at his baptism. This spirit left Jizzy' body durin tha crucifixion yo, but was rejoined ta his ass when da thug was raised from tha dead as fuckin fried chicken. I aint talkin' bout chicken n' gravy biatch. Right back up in yo muthafuckin ass. Some Gnostics, however, was docetics, believed dat Jizzy did not gotz a physical body yo, but only rocked up ta possess one.[427] Manichaeism, a Gnostic sect, accepted Jizzy as a prophet, up in addizzle ta reverin Gautama Buddha n' Zoroaster.[428][429] In tha Druze faith, Jizzy is considered one of Godz blingin prophets.[374][375]

Yo, some Hindus consider Jizzy ta be a avatar or a sadhu.[430] Paramahansa Yogananda, a Indian guru, taught dat Jizzy was tha reincarnation of Elisha n' a hustla of Jizzy tha Baptist, tha reincarnation of Elijah.[431] Some Buddhists, includin Tenzin Gyatso, tha 14th Dalai Lama, regard Jizzy as a bodhisattva whoz ass dedicated his wild lil' freakadelic game ta tha welfare of people.[432] Da New Age movement entertains a wide variety of views on Jizzy.[433] Theosophists, from whom nuff New Age teachings originated,[434] refer ta Jizzy as tha Masta Jizzy, a spiritual reformer, n' they believe dat Christ, afta various incarnations, occupied tha body of Jizzy.[435] Da Urantia Book teaches Jizzy is one of mo' than 700,000 heavenly lil playaz of Dogg.[436] Scientologists recognize Jizzy (along wit other religious figures like fuckin Zoroaster, Muhammad, n' Buddha) as part of they "religious heritage".[433][437] Atheists reject Jizzy' divinitizzle yo, but have different views bout his ass �" from challengin Jesus' menstrual health,[438][439] all up in criticizin his cold-ass teachings, ta emphasizin his ″moral superiority″ (Slick Rick Dawkins).[440]

Artistic depictions

[441] Jizzy healin a paralytic up in one of tha straight-up original gangsta known imagez of Jizzy from Dura Europos up in tha 3rd century

Yo, a shitload of tha earliest depictionz of Jizzy all up in tha Dura-Europos church is firmly dated ta before 256.[442] Thereafter, despite tha lack of biblical references or oldschool records, a wide range of depictionz of Jizzy rocked up durin tha last two millennia, often hyped up by cultural settings, ballistical circumstances n' theological contexts.[344][359] As up in other Early Christian art, tha earliest depictions date ta tha late 2nd or early 3rd century, n' survivin images is found especially up in tha Catacombz of Rome.[443]

Da depiction of Christ up in pictorial form was highly controversial up in tha early Church.[444][u][445] From tha 5th century onward, flat painted icons became ghettofab up in tha Eastside Church. Da Byzantine Iconoclasm acted as a funky-ass barrier ta pimpments up in tha Eastside yo, but by tha 9th century, art was permitted again. Da Protestant Reformation brought renewed resistizzle ta imagery yo, but total prohibizzle was atypical, n' Protestant objections ta images have tended ta reduce since tha 16th century fo' realz. Although big-ass images is generally avoided, few Protestants now object ta book illustrations depictin Jizzy.[447][448] Da use of depictionz of Jizzy be advocated by tha leadaz of denominations like fuckin Anglicans n' Catholics[449][450][451] n' be a key element of tha Eastside Orthodox tradition.[453]

Da Transfiguration was a major theme up in Eastside Christian art, n' every last muthafuckin Eastside Orthodox monk whoz ass had trained up in icon paintin had ta prove his craft by paintin a icon depictin dat shit.[454] Icons receive tha external markz of veneration, like fuckin kisses n' prostration, n' they is thought ta be bangin channelz of divine grace. Da Renaissance brought forth a fuckin shitload of artists whoz ass focused on depictionz of Jizzy; Fra Angelico n' others followed Giotto up in tha systematic pimpment of uncluttered images.

Before tha Protestant Reformation, tha crucifix was common up in Westside Christianity. Well shiiiit, it aint nuthin but a model of tha cross wit Jizzy crucified on dat shit. Da crucifix became tha central ornament of tha altar up in tha 13th century, a use dat has been nearly universal up in Roman Catholic churches since then.

Jizzy appears as a infant up in a manger (feed trough) up in Chrizzle creches, which depict tha Nativitizzle scene.[456] Dude is typically joined by Mary, Joseph, muthafuckas, shepherds, angels, n' tha Magi.[456] Franciz of Assisi (1181/82�"1226) is credited wit popularizin tha creche, although he probably did not initiate dat shit.[456] Da creche reached its height of popularitizzle up in tha 17th n' 18th centuries up in southern Europe.[456]

Associated relics

Da Shroud of Turin , Italy, is tha best-known fronted relic of Jizzy n' one of da most thugged-out studied artifacts up in human history.

Da total destruction dat ensued wit tha siege of Jerusalem by tha Romans up in AD 70 made tha game of shit from 1st-century Judea straight-up rare n' almost no direct recordz survive bout tha history of Judaizzle from tha last part of tha 1st century all up in tha 2nd century.[458][v] Margaret M. Mitchell writes dat although Eusebius reports (Ecclesiastical History Pt III 5.3) dat tha early Christians left Jerusalem fo' Pella just before Jerusalem was subjected ta tha final lockdown, we must accept dat no first-hand Christian shit from tha early Jerusalem Church have reached us.[460] Joe Nickell writes, "as investigation afta investigation has shown, not a single, reliably authenticated relic of Jizzy exists."[461][w]

But fuck dat shiznit yo, tha word on tha street is dat all up in tha history of Christianity, a fuckin shitload of relics attributed ta Jizzy done been fronted, although doubt has been cast on dem wild-ass muthafuckas. Da 16th-century Catholic theologian Erasmus freestyled sarcastically bout tha proliferation of relics n' tha number of buildings dat could done been constructed from tha wood fronted ta be from tha cross used up in tha Crucifixion. Similarly, while smart-ass muthafuckas rap battle whether Jizzy was crucified wit three nails or wit four, at least thirty holy nails continue ta be venerated as relics across Europe.[465]

Yo, some relics, like fuckin purported remnantz of tha Crown of Thorns, receive only a modest number of pilgrims, while tha Shroud of Turin (which be associated wit a approved Catholic devotion ta tha Holy Face of Jizzy), has received millions,[466] includin popes Jizzy Pizzle Pt II n' Benzedrine XVI.[467][468]
