“We
would know that first, Jesus was a Jewish teacher; second, many people believed
that he performed healings and exorcisms; third, some people believed he was
the Messiah; fourth, he was rejected by the Jewish leaders; fifth, he was
crucified under Pontius Pilate in the reign of Tiberius; sixth, despite this
shameful death, his followers, who believed that he was still alive, spread
beyond Palestine so that there were multitudes of them in Rome by A.D. 64; and
seventh, all kinds of people from the cities and countryside-men and women,
slave and free-worshiped him as God.” [1]

And before some says, "We should have more from ancient history written about Jesus," see here.
