No. What really happened that Jesus was trying to
rest, and have a quiet morning, after some recent
stressful events.
Then, he heard a loud, insistent pounding outside the
cave entrance. It was so annoying that he was roused,
and answered the door. Which was a big rock, seemingly
an odd choice. But he was trying to keep a low profile
due to some gubmint/police harassment, and he thought
that a stone door would suggest, "Resident here is NOT
that carpenter who is in trouble."
Anyway, Jesus was really annoyed to discover that his
peace and quiet was being disturbed by some pushy
christian missionaries (JWs, Mormons, whatever...)
So he slammed the door, and hasn't been heard from
since.

The belief in the Christian god... is an appalling nightmare. I reject
the notion that the whole universe was created by this kind of evil
creature who would create such a thing. - Anthony Flew, March 22, 2005
