Original sentence: He is also mentioned in texts by Polycarp, Eusebius, Irenaeus, Ignatius, Justin, Origen, Cornelius Tacitus, Lucian of Samosata, Suetonius, Plinius Secundus, Tertullian, Thallus, Phlegon, Mara Bar-Serapion, Justin Martyr and possibly as Yeshu in the Talmud (although most scholars do not view the relevant passages as historically accurate, and many doubt they refer to Jesus at all).Mention is made of Jesus in the complete works of Josephus (in a passage considered by many scholars to be at least partially forged)
Edited sentence: A number of historians have seriously questioned whether Jesus ever really lived, and while most religious and secular scholars presume his existence, many find the question of his existence undecideable by historical means alone.He is also mentioned in a number of other works, though these significantly post-date the first century, and thus are of limited historical significance.Though mention is made of a Jesus in the complete works of Josephus (in a passage considered by most scholars to be at least partially forged), and possibly as Yeshu in the Talmud (although most scholars do not view the relevant passages as historically accurate, and many doubt they refer to Jesus at all), there may exist no other textual references outside of the canonical Christian texts and several non-canonical gospels such as the Gospel of Thomas
