What should we make of Jesus Mythology? Is the "history" of Jesus in the Gospels and biblical letters simply borrowed from Ancient Greek and Egyptian sources? In this Seven Minute Seminary, Dr. Phil Tallon offers an overview of the arguments against the borrowing hypothesis (often found in corners of the internet). He demonstrates that the similarities are superficial, and uses J. R. R. Tolkien's concept of "true myth" to locate Jesus's story among and in contrast to the great threads of myth across ancient history.
