My other thread was removed so re-worded the question. Why was the son of god not educated?

Or do you beleive he was?

Also why did he not see or feel the need to record his teachings?

If you read the Christian Bible, you will see that Jesus quoted the Hebrew scriptures with ease and knew which verses to use where and when. it seems Jewish wisdom and teachings were natural to him.

Also why did he not see or feel the need to record his teachings?
This is a question for National geographic channel if they already haven't produced a romantic and pesudo-historical program about it.

If you are the Author of all knowledge and wisdom, who can teach you.
He spoke in parables so that the people won't understand. They still don't
Maybe His message was not for all mankind - what do you think?

I think he/story of is very contradicting. I just don't see how he could have been a teacher and not to the signifigance of his recorded history.....

stars can " fall " from the sky. The moon gives out light.

for being the creator of the universe, shouldn't he have vast knowledge of its correct workings?

It's not necessary to be able to read and write in order to teach and know your history. All it takes is being able to remember.

Not really - Take the Gospels for instance
Matthew was a Jew writing to Jews and portaying Jesus as the King and Messiah from their prophesies, promises and psalms.
Mark wrote to Roman christians in a fast moving,non-jewish fashion in a time of prosecurion and suffering, portraying Jesus as the suffering servant.
Luke, the docter, wrote to a spesific roman official an a scholary and well written fashion, after research and reading other writings he wrote his gospel in a certain order and portrait Jesus as the Son of Man.
John was the Mystic, and the only one of the Gospel writers that knew Christ. He wrote a theological thesis with Jesus as the Son of God.
The Bible is a fascinating book when you take time to read it as it is suppose to be read. Read poetry where there is poetry. Enjoy the History section when you find it. Sing with the songwriters and psalmists. The Bible is a library, not a single book.
So is the Words of Jesus, there is many layers to investigate and enjoy.
I love it!

I am asking simply due to why he or anyone would not see the signifigance of recording this. I mean if you want doubt about your messiahness then good job. yet what good does that due?

He wasn't looking to future generations, he was talking to the people around him.

He wasn't looking to future generations, he was talking to the people around him.
But he knew the future, he knew he would come back one day. he said this, so if he was speaking to all of mankind why would he not look towards future generations? We are still part of mankind, why do we not get words of his holiness and miracles yet are asked to have faith.....?

Quite a bit was said of Gallus but we have next to nothing by him recorded. Pretty much the same time frame as a Jewish rabbi many people spoke about.

Jesus (pbuh) was educated, I guess the only Prophet was not educated is Muhammad (pbuh) , He wrote his gospel (Gospel of Jesus pbuh) , but the authors changed/modified it after his rise to God

normal people don't rescue adulteresses from the clutches of a mob, or turn the tables of money changers in sacred sites in the middle of a vibrant urban center.

Precisely.
