The misconception has taken root in our world that the Christian religion was created by Jesus and his disciples. In fact, the true creators of Christianity were the Apostle Paul and his followers. It was they who wrote almost all the New Testament writings, although they had never seen or heard Christ. 
However, the true gospel of Jesus was much closer to Pharisaic Judaism than to Pauline Christianity. The disciples of Jesus—the apostles Peter, John and James—preached the teachings of the Son of Man, but their ideological opponent, the Apostle Paul, emphasized something else: the resurrection of the Son of God, which corresponded to the mythology of the pagans. 
In the second century CE, copyists, themselves former pagans, changed the original texts of New Testament writings to sanctify Paul's ideas with the authority of Jesus and to depict Christ as being in opposition to the Jews. To do this, they made numerous anti-Jewish and anti-Judaic additions to the New Testament. Moreover, they shifted the blame for the crucifixion of Christ from the Romans to the Jews. This blatant falsification of the legacy of Jesus laid the foundation for hostility to the people of Christ.

What does the Bible hide and to what extent can we trust the Holy Scriptures? The "archaeology" of biblical texts yielded many interesting and surprising discoveries. As it turned out, the Israelites (Northern Hebrew tribes) and Judahites (Southerners) had completely different ancestors, who arrived in Canaan and then left the Nile Delta at different times. The Northerners and the Southerners made their Exodus from Egypt at different centuries as well, and conquered their places in Canaan independently. So what - or who - is responsible for the contradictions between facts mentioned in the Old Testament and archeological findings of the last decades? The biblical writers merged the family trees and narratives of both peoples to create a common genealogy and history. But where the archaeologists look for the history of Early Israel, are in fact the hidden and different pasts of two West Semitic peoples.
