Was Jesus a Poor, Illiterate, Itinerate, Peasant?

One hears from most academics that the historical figure of Jesus was most likely an impoverished, illiterate, itinerate, peasant with no wider cultural or geopolitical perspective beyond the region of the lower Galilee. He grew up in a tiny hamlet of perhaps 100 people, and certainly had no acquaintance with the high culture of Hellenistic-Roman society. This video presentation considers the geography of our earliest accounts of Jesus’ preaching campaign, and what might be said of the John the Baptist movement from which he arose, which came to the focused attention of Herod Antipas in the capital city of his kingdom at DioCaesarea.
