A lot of Jesus’ childhood is unrecorded and unknown, but many people have their beliefs of what it was like. It may have been full of hardships or full of joy no one really knows. No one really knows who he befriended over his years as a child. Did kids back then like him? I believe it was filled with many joyful times, but also filled with hardships. I think he befriend people, but also made enemies. That’s the basic childhood of any person so I believe his went the same way.
Jesus was born in 4b.c. He lived in Egypt for a little bit because King Harod was killing babies under the age of 2 so Mary, Joseph, and Jesus sent off to Egypt. When he returned he lived in Nazareth. Not much is recorded after that. The rest is just thought about by people with a lot of time on their hands. I believe Jesus’ childhood wasn’t all that bad. I think he had friends, not too many, but some. I’m sure he went through hardships also. Maybe he played sports, I’m not sure what sports were around then, but it’s possible that he played them. They may have thrown spears and who ever could throw it the farthest wins. They might have had races to see who was the fastest. Most children probably participated in these sports because there wasn’t a whole lot to do like today.
