Jesus never said he was a carpenter. ***Now I see that you're saying that Jesus "could have" been a carpenter. You're pretty disingenuous.
Nor did any of the gospel writers claim that he was a carpenter. ***Mark 6:3. New International Version <http://biblehub.com/niv/mark/6.htm> Isn't this the carpenter? Isn't this Mary's son and the brother of James, Joseph, Judas and Simon? Aren't his sisters here with us?" And they took offense at him. I see you're cutting a mighty fine line, such a fine line as one would expect from someone who is disingenuous. His earthly father was a carpenter, that is where the assumption ***It is not an assumption. It is an inference, based upon plain scripture in Mark 6:3, common customs of the day, etc. Again you walk this VERY fine line. came from that he was a carpenter also. Many times that is the case, but may not be the case here. We simply don't know. ***We have far more evidence that Jesus was a carpenter than we do that the earth is 6000 years old. That is, unless one is very disingenuous with the evidence.
