Jesus was part of some sort of Jewish resistance movement that probably sought to restore the pre-Judges way of life (as per the Zealotes), which is why the "Son of David" shit surrounding him was so important. He was crucified for starting a city -wide riot meant to throw a fuck into the Occupational Romans. The shit he was balls deep in (and a leader of) culminated in the 70 ad thing, Masada, and a flood of Jews running to France and England and all over Europe, because Romans were not so easily fucked with as modern people are.

He was no simple carpenter, he had the right lineage. He would have been more like a contractor. The fishermen? Masters of fishing fleets. The social status of these people is seriously downplayed in the New Testament, and the actual one or two commoners are put in the forefront .........

There's no magic involved in that story at all.
