All these stories happened in the Middle East areas
Non of his paintings are based on reality, but on what people in 17th century Western Europe wanted it to look like.
Clothing is western , armour is definately not what they would have worn in the Middle east around year zero.
And Jezus never looks like a typical Jew in these paintings.
