Justin Martyr and Eusebius mention a circular letter issued by the Sanhedrin.
Martyr Quotes from it:
“...a certain Jesus of Galilee, an apostate preacher whom we crucified; but his disciples stole hime by night
from the cross; they did this in order to persuade men to apostasy by saying that he had awakened from the dead and
ascended into heaven.” Per JGGG jewish tradition for at least a century afterwards independently continued to
reject Jesus on the basis of his claim to deity.

Of course we know that the Sannhedrin could not have crucified this Jesus, because the Gospel asserts that Jesus was crucified by the Romans.

Oh, gosh, your sources disagree. Perhaps one of them made it all up? Who is wrong?

That would be the one that has impossible things in it.

Hebrews 6:4-6

It is impossible for those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, who have shared in the Holy Spirit, who have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the coming age and who have fallen away, to be brought back to repentance. To their loss they are crucifying the Son of God all over again and subjecting him to public disgrace.


It's my prayer that you aren't THIS far gone; yet.

Historians run across such things all the time. What you’re doing is making a huge, big, giant deal over what amounts to a typo. Do you apply this impossible standard to any other figure in history? If so, you throw out ALL history. None of the historical references meet this idealogically driven unscientific standard.

It could easily have said:
“...a certain Jesus of Galilee, an apostate preacher whom we had crucified;
