You might find a version of one of Josephus' writings that mentions Jesus. Virtually all authorities claim that was an 'addition' and is not found in older versions.
Josephus was an 'eye witness' of the second destruction of Jerusalem.


When The Jewish Diaspora happened, the people of the 10 Tribes of Israel where 'scattered to the winds': it left a vacuum for foreigners to resettle the land along with their language. When Jerusalem was later destroyed, the bulk of the people remaining in Israel were transplanted to Babylon.


In Jesus time, the Jewish land was occupied by Rome. The Romans spoke Greek and Latin.

Jesus started his ministry when he was 30. A Jewish man, at that time, had to be at least 30 to become a priest. He would be expected to know Hebrew.
