Yep - Born six months after His cousin John the Baptist. But Jesus never celebrated His birthday because birthdays are pagan. The disciples nor the early church celebrated Jesus birthday. It is a catholic concoction and they even use the wrong date (12/25).
Here is how Jesus asks us to remember Him:
Luk 22:19 And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake [it], and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1Cr 11:24 And when he had given thanks, he brake [it], and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1Cr 11:25 After the same manner also [he took] the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink [it], in remembrance of me.
Yep, its the Lord's Supper! We remember HIS LIFE - not His birth or death!

You are right about his death,
Nisan 14, 33 CE at the first spring equinox
of the first full moon which brings us according to the Jewish calendar the end of March beginning of April. But we don't know his exact day of birth. He was 331/2 years
old when he died so that would bring us around September/October when he was born. That would be in harmony with the Shepard's who were living and tending there sheep out side in the fields. If Jesus was born in December as the churches teach then they would have to explain what the Shepard's were doing taking care of their sheep out in the fields as it is winter time with ice and snow in the land of Judea. The sheep in December are all in barns being protected from the winter ice and snow and no Shepard's are abiding in the fields at that time.
The December date is also wrong because the reason why Joseph and Mary were in Bethlehem was because of the census being taken. The census taking was always before winter set in so all could go to the town they were born in. That took time because unlike today they had to walk not take a train or car or plane.
Sicerely yours,

Yes it is true that it is very likely that Jesus was born in September, somewhere in the middle of the month.
What we celebrate as the birth of Christ at Christmas is more likely a conception time frame. Jesus was not born in December.

hi: i don't be conscious of why January is the 1st month or why the smash is between December and January, even inspite of the undeniable fact that we rejoice the delivery of Christ in December via fact the early Christian church needed to transform pagans and so took their holiday of the wintry climate solstice and integrated it into Christianity. in case you examine the bible i think of I bear in ideas them speaking approximately sheep coming backtrack from the hills interior the spring with reference to the comparable time as Christ replaced into born. the two way verify it out i'm beneficial that there are clues in there. i'm hoping this helps.

We were never commanded to celebrate His birthday, that's why it's so hard to pinpoint it. I celebrate His ressurection, and remember Him in the life He now lives at the right hand of the Father.
Christ-mass is a christianized pagan holy-day left over from when Constantine wanted all his subjects to become 'christian'. They said 'hell no we won't go', so they let them have their little pagan celebrations, as long as they did them in the name of christ. Walla, instant pagan christianity.
I wouldn't celebrate the papist bull-oney for all the presents in the world. If you claim the name of Christ, neither should you.

yes you are correct.
Many do not know this fact.
Jesus was conceived on or about the 25th of December.
The date of conception is the way a member of the tribe of Judah (Jewish) would count. From conception!!
Now you know you are 9 months older!
