Question about Joseph
I have gone down a rabbit hole in my head and I now have a question that I can't figure out and nowhere else on the internet does it seem like anyone has asked this.
First off, I know that Joseph basically dissappears from the Bible after Jesus' childhood. There's no mention of him in the remaining major events of his son's life. Many people speculate that he might have died sometime between Jesus' early adulthood and death. This is the only logical reason I can find for Jesus' own mother to be mentioned later in his life and not Joseph. If someone knows or if there's evidence for anything different, I am always open to learning new information.
So assuming Joseph died while Jesus was living his life on earth, why would he not raise Joseph from the dead? I am only familiar with the traditional Bible, and to my knowledge there is no record of Jesus raising anyone from the dead besides Lazarus. Why is that?
Do you think Jesus raised many people from the dead all the time but for some reason, Lazarus is the only one that was significant enough to talk about?
This is a tough question to ask and my head hurts from trying to think of answers to questions like this.
It seems strange to me that Jesus would ressurect a friend and be upset enough to cry about it, but his own legal father dies and... Nothing? Would he not be upset about that too and how would that event not be big enough to be recorded? Other stories involving the human emotions of Jesus are there. Lazarus' death, the overturning of the tables in the temple. How could the death of a parent not affect Jesus or not affect him enough to be upset to the point that someone wrote about it?
Is the belief that Jesus only raised one person from the dead, Lazarus? If so why would he only choose to do that for one person? If his father died why did he not have a reaction of why was it not recorded and why wouldn't he raise probably one of the most important people in his life, from the dead when he had the power to do so?
