what is jesus real date of birth?

Answer 1

the year was late 5 BC or early 4 BC.

as for the month . . . in college we studied both late december, early january and late march, early april, but march/april was definitely brought up more often.

take it however you'd like.

Answer 2

Actually the Bible is a little secretive about this, But he was probably born 4 B.C. September 25 because the shepards were in fields with sheep when Angels appeared to them. In colder winter periods shepards would not be out at night. Also John the Baptist was 6 months older so he was born in April 4 B.C. time frame. But most histories say Jesus died around 30 A.D. around Easter time? this would have made Sept. Oct. a better time to being born and John being born in April because Bible teaches Jesus was cut off in middle of Daniel's week which made Jesus 33-1/2 years old when he died near the passover at 30 A.D.

Answer 3

The exact day would be unknown, but we can narrow it down to a specific week in 6 BC. God commanded that three times a year all Jewish males to go where God's name is placed to celebrate His holy festivals. Found in Lev 23 they are the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the Feast of Weeks and the Feast of Tabernacles (verified Deut 16:16-17). Out of these holy days, it is Sukkot, the Feastival of Tabernacles, that God requires His people to leave their homes and live in temporary booths, or tents.

The Roman government didn't keep an empire by making foolish decisions. The assumption that Herod demanded everyone return to the city of their birth by the conver Luke is wrong. To force a population, no matter how small or large, to do such a thing would be a nightmare. No, Rome took advantage of the Jewish holy day gatherings. So when a census was wanted, it was far better to poll a census while the Jews were gathered than to chase them down to their birth cities.

According to the gospel, he was born in a manger. If one ignores Jewish tradition and ritual, then no one would know why he was born in one. But understanding the ritual of Sukkot, to live in a temporary structure, then the answer to the manger is found.

Luke was a Gentile who converted to Judaism. While he followed Jewish ways, he didn't understand much and/or wasn't taught much at the time of his writing the book of Luke. What he mistakes as no room at the inn and lodging in a manger, was actually the following of God's word, Torah, to celebrate Sukkot near Jerusalem in a temporary structure.

Why Bethlehem? It was the closest town to Jerusalem where God had placed His name. Joseph still had family there, making it convienant to lodge with relatives.

Herod the Great had died in 4 BCE according to various historical records. If the gospel is correct, if he called for the deaths of two year old male children and under, then we can gather Yeshua was born in either 6 or 5 BCE.

Answer 4

Though many people believe his birth to be December 25, the real date of the birth of Jesus is April 6, 1 B.C. This makes sense when one fully contemplates the significance of this date.
First, a little background about the Christmas story for you (See Scripture 1 below): Caesar Augustus decided that all the world should be taxed, and so he issued a census of all the people. In order to be counted, each man was to return to his city of birth, which is what led Joseph and his wife, Mary, to Bethlehem, where Jesus was born.
Bethlehem is approximately six miles from Jerusalem (See link 1 below), wherein was Herod's Temple. Luke 2:8 says, "And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night." Why would there be sheperds so close to the temple? Before entry to the temple, one would prepare an animal sacrifice, the most common instance of which was a firstborn male lamb without blemish (for further details see scripture 2 below). These sheperds were most likely Levitical priests, whose calling was to raise sheep for the sacrifices. We know that the sheperds were intently watching their flocks. Why? Not just for wolves. That would not require intense watching; they would hear both the wolves and the sheep. The only other logical explanation was that it was mating season, and they were watching for firstborn male lambs without blemish. And when does mating season occur? About April.

Doctrine and Covenants 20:1 states, "The rise of the church of Christ in these last days, being one thousand eight hundred and thirty years since the coming of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ in the flesh, it being regularly organized and established agreeable to the laws of our country, be the will and commandments of God, in the fourth month, and on the sixth day of the month, which is called April."

Answer 5

The council of Nicea established the cardinal doctrine of Christianity, Trinity (by Athanesius of Alexandria)

The council also changed the birthday of Prophet Jesus to 25 December to match the birthday of Sun-God Mithras, and shifted the Sabbath from Saturday to Sunday.

Answer 6

Answer 8

no one knows coz it was not recorded (as if he had never existed)=)

but according to some details of the story, the birth must have happened in springtime.
shepherds do not take sheep out on the snow, even if they wear wool, they take them out to eat grass in springtime.
and also the inns used to have no vacancy also during their "spring break" whick is something that existed long before jesus.

so probably he was born more or less the same date they say he was crucified.

Answer 9

Jesus uses this date too, Dec25 since it's the date that we except it to be. Whether it is or not his real Birthday, Jesus understands and allows us to use that day, so he too uses that day for his purposes.

Answer 10

Sometime in september....however he specifically did not tell us the exact day so we would focus on the most impt part of his life, his attoning death on the cross and his glorious resurrection. Christmas means merry death of Christ, and if you are a Christian you dont want any part of a pagan/witchcraft celebration of the death and resurrection of Baal the sun god, aka Satan. One thing witches hate about pseudo christians is they stole all of their sabats, days of celebration and gave them christian names, but I assure you the days are pagan, every day is the acceptable day of salvation and Jesus Christ the all in all to his people called by his name. Many or called and few are chosen, and those that are with him are called and chosen and faithful.
