Rivals of Jesus

There were several different messiahs around the time of Jesus. Leave aside the questions of the historical Jesus for the time being.
This is a good doc from National Geographic talking about several of them. Hooray for YouTube.


On a related note, Mr Deity is not available through iTunes as a video podcast. Hooray.
