Theblical evidence shows that Jesus wasn't born in the winter or summer.

December 25 has become synonymous with the Christmas story.The idea that Christmas is His birthday is all over the place.What has become popular is not true to history.

There are only two accounts of Jesus' birth in the New Testament, and both of them show different angles of the story.Matthew is focused on events in Bethlehem.It is difficult to determine Jesus' birthday due to the fact that both aren't detailed in terms of a calendar date.The time of year and when things happened are not told by the writers.

Mary gave birth to her firstborn, a son.She put Him in a manger because there wasn't a guest room for them.shepherds kept watch over their flocks at night, living in the fields nearby.shepherds were not in the fieldsIt is possible that Jesus was born in the summer or fall.The shepherds would have sought shelter at night in Judea because of the cold and rainy weather.The shepherds would not have been able to see their flocks at night because of the weather.

The journey of Joseph and Mary to Bethlehem where Jesus was born is connected with a decree of Augustus, embracing the Greek-Roman world.The census at the time of Jesus' birth is called the "first" in a series of enrollments connected with wither with Quirinius or with the imperial policy inaugurated by the decree of Augustus.The census was not taken in the winter because the roads were in poor condition.It wasn't allowed at this time of year.

Mary traveled from Nazareth to Bethlehem in about 70 miles.It would be difficult for a pregnant Mary to travel in the winter.The world of Mary and Joseph was very dangerous and difficult to navigate.James F. Strange is a New Testament and biblical archaeology professor at the University of South Florida.According to Strange, Joseph and Mary would have traveled only 10 miles a day because of Mary's impending delivery.

The month of Jesus' birth continues to be a topic of debate.The fall of the year is believed to be the most likely time of Jesus' birth.Dave Reneke argued in 2008 that Jesus was born in the summer.According to Reneke, the Star of Bethlehem may have been Venus and Jupiter coming together to form a bright light in the sky.The rare event took place on June 17 in the year 2 B.C.In October of 7 B.B., a conjunction between Jupiter and Saturn made Jesus an autumn baby, according to other researchers.

The biblical narrative that shepherds were watching over their flocks in the fields on the night of Jesus' birth is believed to have been true.The Bible doesn't point to Jesus being born in the winter.Nobody knows when Jesus was born.
