This is something that is not posted in the Internet Infidels library which I thought to pass along since it appears to explain why those from the Orient hold the view that Jesus,as well as his family and friends traveled through and lived his last years there as evinced by their own manuscripts as well as this from the New Testament Canon as posted at that site.
Below this quote I have posted Ch 15 of Kersey Grave’s Sixteen Crucified Saviors which by the way, I am unable to find freethinker critique of the scholarship of this work and would appreciate anyone else’s findings of such critiques.

"And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled? and why do thoughts arise in your hearts? Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have. And when he had thus spoken, he showed them his hands and his feet. And while they yet believed not for joy, and wondered, he said unto them, Have ye here any meat? And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish, and of an honeycomb. And he took it, and did eat before them"

I do not remember which one of us, D or myself, had been reading the Bible out loud. But after the above passage was read, the strangest thing occurred--and this had never happened before. We both were sitting there staring down at our respective Bibles that we held in our hands. We were silent. Both of us were silent, staring at the pages.

Suddenly, D looked up at me and said, "Are you thinking what I'm thinking?" We were both now looking at one another, and one of us shouted, "HE WAS ALIVE!" It was a shout that came more from inside the soul than the head. At that point, I inadvertently dropped the Bible onto the floor and we both let out something like a short, muffled scream--it's hard to explain. I guess you can say that we gasped. After that, we picked up the Bible and started reading it from a new perspective. I was absolutely frightened. My mind was spinning. What on earth does it mean? But suddenly--in one evening--I had found the answer that had troubled me for 11 years: Jesus Christ had survived the crucifixion, and it was right there all the time--in the Bible. The only difference is that for some reason this particular day something caused our minds to read the material as it appeared, stripped of any religious interpretations.
