In Mark's Gospel, the first of the gospels to be written, Jesus was a mortal with divine powers. The author had no qualms in describing Jesus as a carpenter (6:3): "Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James, and Joses, and of Juda, and Simon ..."

Matthew's Gospel, written somewhat later, tells us that Jesus was the Son of God. The Son of God should be above earthly things and, the author gives the parallel verse (13:55) as: "Is not this the carpenter's son? is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas ...," clearly implying that while Joseph was a carpenter, Jesus most certainly was not.

This seems inconclusive but, since we now know that the author of Matthew relied on Mark for everything he knew about the life and mission of Jesus, the account in Mark is more likely to be correct. This means that Jesus was a carpenter.

The straight answer is: We don't know. It is, however, generally assumed that being Joseph's firstborn; he would have been a carpenter.

That is a wonderful question, but the Bible does not use much punctuation, so in reality, speaking of the grammar, it is suppose to be written Jesus, Christ. not Jesus Christ. As many references in the KJV of the Bible, is Christ Jesus, written correctly Christ, Jesus, or Jesus, Christ. It is referring to Christ.
