Was Jesus really a poor and peaceful carpenter as christians make him out to be?

If Jesus was of the lineage of Solomon, he would have come from a royal bloodline--one of the wealthiest bloodlines of the ancient world. He also spoke aramaic, which was a language reserved for nobleman and diplomats. Jesus may have been the true heir to the throne of Israel based on his genealogy. That being the case he was probably a warrior as well. The Bible talks about Peter cutting off the ear of one of his master's enemies. Those 12 guys probably used all manner of violence and diplomacy to retake the throne and give it back to the rightful owner, and it may even be true that the average jew hoped he was successful so the foreign occupying authority could be removed. Let's look at the life of Jesus in a more realistic and political light. What was the political climate like in his day. Read Messianic Legacy. Really Interesting. Hope no one is offended.
