Dear Moobie,
You are looking into some interesting questions.
I must tell you that not all theologens look at the sections on Jesus (the Gospels, Acts, Letters) as 100% literal.
Two authors who explore liberal Christianity in depth are Marcus Borg and John Spong.
Given your questions, you might enjoy reading their personal opinions on Jesus, who He was and what the Bible/Gospels mean.
