Kentucky wrote:The grounds for [Robert] Eisler's inference were simply that a notice in Eusebius stated that Josephus, the most famous Jew of his time, had a statue erected in his honour, and this bust, he thought, corresponded to a ‘crooked’, ‘broken’ ‘Jewish nose’ as distinct from the classic aquiline Roman nose.
First off, Robert Eisler was a jew--and a hack historian and fake "holocaust" survivor. He claimed that Jesus was a political jew and a Zealot. Any opinion he may hold about this bust of Josephus carries no weight, except in the twisted minds of other jews.

statue was erected of Josephus--a statue is
not a bust, which shows only the shoulders and above. So this cannot be the
statue that Eusebius is referring to. Bill has gone over Josephus' family Israelite background many times, and he clearly was neither a hook-nosed greasy jew nor a debased Hittite. And given his fame, it's hard to believe that any statue of Josephus wouldn't have some sort of an inscription.
