Actually, Jesus is the most documented person in antiquity if you just take non-Christian sources too. There are 17 non-Christian sources within 150 years of His death. 12 of them speak of His death, 12 of His resurrection, and 7 of His deity. In fact, nobody in antiquity has sources for them anywhere near to the still surviving papyri we have for Jesus. The Apostles recorded Jesus the boy who knew him best and were friends with Mary the mother of Jesus. Yes Jesus is the God of Abraham as he looked for their coming Messiah. There are over 100 prophecies Jesus fulfilled to prove it which is mathematically impossible unless Jesus is God. I am glad you aren't able to overturn these facts so don't shut your mind down.And Jesus is NOT the most documented person of antiquity - outside of The New Testament he is barely mentioned.
Was Jesus of Nazareth a real boy? Probably. Was he The God of Abraham, as defined in The Torah, in flesh? Believe what you want - I find those ancient Arab stories to be mediocre fiction at best.
Your 'evidence' is your opinion and nothing more.
Within 150 years of his death and AFTER the stories that morphed into The New Testament began to circulate.
As I said, your 'evidence' is less than impressive to anyone with an open mind.
