DUH,

IT'S NOT AN ''EYEWITNESS ACCOUNT''
And, IT IS HAGIOGRAPHY

Ant XX.200
Festus was now dead and Albinus was but upon the road; so he assembled the Sanhedrin of judges and brought before them the brother of Jesus who was called Christ whose name was James and some others; and when he had formed an accusation against them as breakers of the law, he delivered them to be stoned:
It's ambiguous: eg. It could be read as 'the brother of Jesus was called Christ'
'Jesus who was called Christ' is present three times in Matthew:
Matthew 1:16: "And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ"
- interestingly, Jacob is a cognate of James
And Genesis 25:26 refers to Jacob's birth when he held on to the heel of his older twin brother Esau ...
- Esau is similar to Iesous, the Greek for Jesus (& Joshua)
'Jesus who was called Christ' was probably copied from one of these verses in Matthew into Antiquities XX.200
