There is no doubt at all that Jesus Christ was not killed nor crucified but his enemy caught another person who was looking like him. The Quranic verse is very clear ( They never killed him nor crucified him but they did that on another person whom they thought him Easa) (4;157).
This fact is mentioned also many old Christian texts like Luke 4: 29-30 and John 8: 59 and 10: 93 and Acts 1:11 and Matthew 4:6.
An old Jude bible found in Egypt in Coptic language and translated to English, it states that Jesus told his near disciples: for you will sacrifice the man that clothes me.
