Abstract: The main object of this work is the direction of scientific biblical studies, which in Western historiography was called the “search for historical Jesus” (English Quest for the historical Jesus): history, methodology and key issues. “The Search for the Historical Jesus” is a reconstruction of the life of the historical Jesus of Nazareth based on the most ancient sources (New Testament texts, ancient apocrypha, testimonies of ancient Roman authors, rabbinic texts, etc.). Researchers use a scientific methodology distancing themselves from their religious and religious beliefs. The life of Jesus is reconstructed as the life of other historical persons is reconstructed (Moses, Gautama Buddha, Socrates, or Abraham Lincoln).
