Exactly. Not all that different from you-know-who ...

Do you mean the New Testament or the Gospels?  In the Gospel of John Jesus
obliquely lays claim to divinity twice.  In the other Gospels he is
reticent.  It is fairly clear the the historical Jesus, if there was such a
person, did not go around trumpeting himself as a divine being.

In the remainder of the New Testament, however, both the redemptive effect
of the crucifixion and Jesus's divine nature are regularly discussed.
