If anyone were to take a dive into the Bible and read through the canonical passages that portray a young Jesus Christ, they would find a serene figure full of peace and calm. Incidentally (and perhaps unsurprisingly), this picture is one that was most likely carefully curated and crafted by the Church in order to fit a certain perspective of what Jesus ought to be. But some evidence has suggested that Jesus’ childhood was not as serene; apocryphal passages (texts with doubtful authenticity) portray Jesus as a boy who brimmed with mystery, miracles, and even mischief.
