As I explained before---The Muslim belief is that Prophet Muhammed (pbuh) is not the author of the Quran....therefore it does not matter if he heard anything or did not hear anything---that is only relevant as far as the ahadith are concerned. The sayings of the Prophet are his opinions---they are not revelation. The Quran is not the personal opinion of the Prophet---it is revelation.
There are other writings such as the Israeliyat and others that record the beleifs/opinions/stories of the Christians and Jews of the time. These can be investigated to see what the condition/situation was. Recorded among these are the sayings of Prophet Jesus (pbuh) that were prevalent in the various Christian communities of the area.

As for history---Only God knows with certainty as he is the only existing witness. What is most important is the point/message that the Quran is pointing to.
