Does anyone know of any historical works writen between c.20B.C.-c.33A.D. that mentions Jesus?

Josephus was not born untill c.34A.D. The bible only includes gospels written after approx. 150A.D. (all of the gospels written before that time were excluded from the bible by the Church. The church also interpetted the works in a manner that was bias by their version of Jesus

    There are none. And what's really intriguing is that there were observers of that particular time and place, and they utterly fail to mention him. Pliny the elder, for example, writes about "miracles" and many men calling themselves messiahs, but he never mentions "Jesus" by name, nor do his writings match any of the biblical ones.

    There isn't really any evidence Jesus ever lived. It is entirely a matter of faith.
