Query: Jesus, or Jim Morrison Does 1st Century Judea ?

First off this author takes great liberty surmising the ''hidden years'' of Jesus' life, although plausable in most instances. What comes out in the wash, is a lazy, self consumed, pot bellied, balding, alcoholic shaman, mooching off his rich friends, continually making a spectacle of himself. Minus the drugs, and mooching off friends, we have a 1st century Jim Morrison.There is ample proof that Jesus' family supported his ministry, however not the case in this author's opinion. And I find the author's interpretation of scripture, and or events do not always follow that of widely accepted scholarly opinion, such as the above mentioned family support. To each his own interpretation, freedom is given, but the picture of the Jesus this author represents, himself a priest, I am glad he does not represent me."The Historical Jesus of the Gospels" by Craig Keemer, is the book I recommend.
