To What Extent Can We Be Certain That Jesus of Nazareth Was a Historical Figure? Books about that?

I'm inclined to believe it's based on some real figure but the entire story is 95% fabrication

You don’t need to read a book to know he was a real person. Why would Paul and the other early Christians invent a guy that numerous people were writing about? And Tacitus said he was a real person who was crucified under Pilate

Quit whining over the fact that your desert cult leader's story was fabricated by his cult followers after his death.

It's far more likely that he was just another doomsday cultist with a little following who got rightfully btfoe'd by Romans for disturbing public order in jewish communities. And then his followers made up entire lies of his life story, including prophecy, virgin birth, the miracles (which could've been parlour tricks granted) and ressurection. 100 years after his death

The only obvious lie is that this man was a song of God. A claim with only parlour tricks to show for it, besides other lies about virgin birth and resurrection (both impossible)

Tacitus does not say that, he merely mentions that Christians were used as a scapegoat for the fire of Rome during Nero's reign.

There was a man referred to as Christ or The Christ by people that was killed by order of Pilate. That much is undeniable. Tacitus didn't care enough about Christians and their culture to do a deep dive and reported things as was given to him. So he never mentions "Rabbi Yeshua of Nazareth" and seems to misunderstand the "Christ" was not his name, but his title-- not much different than how people today who only know "Jesus Christ" and some don't know "Yeshua" and even the more ignorant thinking that Christ is a last name.

>Follow a guy
>Invent 99% of this teachings which were all revolutionary for the time
>Portray yourselves, the true teachers, as doubting, skeptical, and sometimes cowardly followers
>Continue this ruse even after this random guy you decide to paint as a hero dies a horrible death
>Get tortured to death yourself never recanting this story

And none of this takes into account how nonsensical it is that Jesus would even be killed by the Pharisees if his teachings + actions were made up by some other people. That means the real Jesus was doing something else entirely and then just got brutally murdered for no reason.

which means that Tacitus is useless as a source, since he just parrots whatever Christians told him

No, he still's a source checker and he checked to see if that event happened.

The practice of scapegoating had been rooted in Jewish culture for centuries.

But that means this random rabbi got scapegoated and everyone bought it. Even though the majority of the hatred was from what the Pharisees were seeing with their own eyes, they decide to bring attention to a random guy when they didn't need to? The Pharisees were in power within their own community, there was no need to lie about a false prophet. That makes less sense than a guy was actually pissing them off.

It is a work consisting of nine published books, created by the Spanish journalist and writer Juan José Benítez. They narrate the life of Jesus of Nazareth, according to the account of a time traveler from the 20th century.
