Scholars pretty much agree that, if Jesus existed, he was born sometime between 7 BC and 4 BC.

At that time, the year did not begin in January; different cultures had different agreed on starts for the year. For Judeans, the year began in September/October -- on the feast of Rosh Hassanah.

For the Romans, the year began in April.

After. Jesus birth is officially considered to have taken place in 1BC on 25 December. Jesus was officially seven days old on 1AD .The most detailed accounts of Jesus' birth are contained in the Gospel of Matthew (probably written between 65 and 90 AD/CE) and the Gospel of Luke (probably written between 65 and 100 AD/CE). There is considerable debate about the details of Jesus' birth among even Christian scholars, and few scholars claim to know precisely either the year or the date of his birth or of his death. Based on the accounts in the Gospels of the shepherds' activities, the time of year depicted for Jesus' birth could be either spring or summer. However as early as 354 Roman Christians celebrated it following the December solstice in an attempt to replace the Roman festival of Saturnalia (or more specifically, Sol Invictus). Before then, Jesus' birth was generally celebrated on January 6 as part of the feast of Theophany, also known as Epiphany, which commemorated not only Jesus' birth but also his baptism by John in the Jordan River and possibly additional events in Jesus' life. The traditional celebration of Jesus' birth is at Christmas.

In the 248th year of the Diocletian Era (based on Diocletian's ascension to the Roman throne), Dionysius Exiguus attempted to pinpoint the number of years since Jesus' birth, arriving at a figure of 753 years after the founding of Rome. Dionysius then set Jesus' birth as being December 25 1 ACN (for "Ante Christum Natum", or "before the birth of Christ"), and assigned AD 1 to the following year — thereby establishing the system of numbering years from the birth of Jesus: Anno Domini (which translates as "in the year of our Lord"). This system made the then current year 532, and almost two centuries later it won acceptance and became the established calendar in Western civilization due to its further championing by the Venerable Bede.

Keep in mind that the current calendar didn't exist when Jesus was alive, so in one sense it never occurred. There was never a day that was considered, at that time, to be 1/1/1

I really don't know the exact time or where I read it, but it was some years after Jesus was crucified, buried, and rose on the third day and was seen by hundreds of people.

If you believe in it, BC means Before Christ, and AD translates to 'In the Year of Our Lord'. Since there was no year 0, I AD started the week after he was born.

AD isn't After Death or there would be years missing, ie when he was alive. AD stands for Ano Domini which means 'In the Year of Our Lord'

After, since the person who calculated the date (several hundred years after the fact) as off by about 6 years.

After the death of Christ, is when it was considered to be in the year of our Lord, Jesus Christ. Who, at his Crucifixion, ascended to the right hand of our Father God, and is Lord. It is noted as A.D., or Annos Domini, that means in the year of our Lord, Jesus Christ. It also means after His death. So A.D. time began the week after His Crucifixion.

Nope. it has were given something to do with the Roman Catholic Church and the pagans in Rome. The bible suggested about shepherds tending with their herds of sheep interior the fields at nighttime -- if that is an extremely chilly Judean iciness (December), then it isn't going for them to have a tendency to their sheep at nighttime. So it replaced into not in December. no one somewhat is conscious the precise date of Jesus' delivery, yet in conserving with biblical description, pupils assume that He replaced into born in September. The Catholic Church in basic terms assigned the twenty fifth day of December as Christmas Day, an afternoon to keep in recommendations and celebrate the delivery of Jesus Christ. similar day with the Roman pagan vacation: iciness solstice. "Pope Julius I declared that Christ’s delivery may be celebrated on December 25. there isn't any doubt that he replaced into attempting to make it as painless as plausible for pagan Romans (who remained a majority on the prompt) to remodel to Christianity. the recent faith went down slightly a lot less stressful, understanding that their feasts does not be taken faraway from them." "In Rome, the iciness Solstice replaced into celebrated many years beforehand the delivery of Christ. The Romans observed as their iciness vacation Saturnalia, honoring Saturn, the God of Agriculture. In January, they said the Kalends of January, which represented the triumph of life over lack of life. this finished season replaced into observed as Dies Natalis Invicti Solis, the Birthday of the Unconquered solar. The pageant season replaced into marked by skill of a lot merrymaking. it really is in historic Rome that the custom of the Mummers replaced into born. The Mummers were communities of costumed singers and dancers who traveled from domicile to domicile exciting their acquaintances. From this, the Christmas custom of caroling replaced into born."
