Sex chromosomes usually determine whether you are female or male. Women are XX. Men are XY.
No. It works like this: if you want to be a man, then you are a man.
But your biological body does not follow your mind. It follows sex chromosomes.

Biological body has nothing to do with being a man. I would be a woman even if I had nothing but working brain.

Well, what is a scripture?

Scripture essentially comes from the Latin, meaning written.

Though adopted to afford a written narrative a sort of gravitas.

In this context, the basis of scripture is probably derived of a spoken narrative.

Probably a spoken narrative of a spoken narrative, and so on.

Firstly spoken in some archaic Middle Eastern tongue.

Probably recounting hearsay myth and story.

It is what it is.

Neither reliability nor unreliability are pertinent considerations.

What does Jesus say about Scripture?

In other words, when his life was on the line, Jesus referred to an infallible authority that cannot be broken—the Scripture. Furthermore, he later affirmed the truth of the Scriptures when he prayed for the disciples, “Sanctify them by the truth; your word is truth” (John 17:17).

So Jesus was a Roman Catholic then and not Hebrew.

Though the word scripture is actually a Middle English derivative, from the Latin.

So Jesus was Church of England then.

Jesus was a Jew. He was crucified before the Roman Catholic Church was created.

Jesus never visited England.
What scripture means?
Scripture or the scriptures refers to writings that are regarded as holy in a particular religion, for example, the Bible in Christianity.

Why is Bible called Scripture?
The Bible is specifically called scripture because it is regarded as the inspired word of God by many religious traditions, such as Christianity. It is considered to be a collection of sacred writings that reveal Gods will, provide moral and ethical teachings, and offer guidance for believers.

Who knows?  He was god and got about quite a bit.


And did those feet in ancient time
walk upon England's mountains green?
And was the holy Lamb of God
on England's pleasant pastures seen?
And did the countenance divine
shine forth upon our clouded hills?
And was Jerusalem builded here
among those dark satanic mills?

Bring me my bow of burning gold!
Bring me my arrows of desire!
Bring me my spear! O clouds, unfold!
Bring me my chariot of fire!
I will not cease from mental fight,
nor shall my sword sleep in my hand,
till we have built Jerusalem
in England's green and pleasant land.

Who knows?

Wishful thinking.
Was Jesus ever in Europe?
There is no proof that Jesus ever traveled to England or any of its regions

Did Jesus ever travel outside of Israel?
Almost all of Jesus' ministry took place within the traditional borders of Israel in areas dominated by Jews. Yet Jesus also traveled to the region of Tyre and Sidon, where he healed a Gentile woman's daughter, and to the region of Decapolis, where he healed many people.

Egypt, if the bible is to be taken as literally true. 

Wishful thinking.

Jesus ever travel to Egypt?
This is recorded in the Gospel of Matthew (2:16-18). Jesus went to live in Egypt with his parents for at least three years. After his return to Nazareth, there is no clear evidence of Jesus ever returning to Egypt.

Jesus certainly visited India.
Jesus in India. A far more influential and significant myth is the claim that Jesus spent years in India prior to his public ministry in Galilee and Judea. The point of this story is to suggest that what Jesus taught was closer to Buddhism than to traditional Christianity.

All that I was stating, was that old regional narratives would have been spoken or written in Hebrew or some other Semitic language and therefore not referred to as scripture. 

The word scripture wouldn't have been devised until some time after 1066.

You asked and I told you. So my answer is , yes, Jesus according to the BIBLE , travelled outside of Israel.


there is no clear evidence of Jesus ever returning to Egypt.

Who knows where he went after surviving the crucifixion.  Some say France others say Glastonbury in England along with his family with Joseph of Arimathea in tow and others say India,. A few scholars have him alive and well living in Rome?

Jesus’s journey to India happened when he was just 13. Which is more plausible than believing he survived his crucifixion and visited England soon after.
Jesus Journeyed to India/Tibet
The first account is that Jesus had traveled to India on a religious pilgrimage at age 13, studying the Buddhist religion through his travels. This claim was made by Nicolas Notovich in 1887. He claimed that while he was studying the ancient holy texts in India, and found, what he thought, to be a reference to Christ.
It is also said that Jesus visited Puri, where he stayed in the Jagannath Temple and was known by the name of 'Isha.'
