I wont hold to the veracity of such texts, but the small portion in the NT about Jesus in the Temple at age twelve does say quite a bit. One must use a good deal of discernment when exploring such texts, however Timothy 3:16 says, "All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, 17 so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work."
I don't recall which of the texts listed above describes Yeshua and his instructors, but one talks about His knowledge of letters, which I'm sure you would find of interesting. :)

knowledge of letters I'll have to check that out.
alef-tav; alpha-omega:
In Jewish traditions Moses is known as the first and last redeemer (the last being the Messiah, who has the soul of Moses).
But of Joseph, he could be considered the first, because he was sent ahead to save life in a great deliverance. And plus, his bones were intrinsic to the process.
Joseph + Moses = 501 = r'osh (head)
There's always some mathematical principle..

It does NOT say...
"All catechism teaching is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of ROME may be thoroughly equipped for every good work."
