It is a loaded question. I do wonder why the US are so much into Jesus when in fact he is from my country, i.e. Palestine.

Birthplace, humanly speaking: the land of Israel, at the city of Bethlehem-ephrata, Micah 5:2.
True kin: at least 4 half-brothers according to Mark 6:3, namely James, Joses, Judas, and Simon, plus at least two half-sisters (names not given). By extension, His true kin would be the tribe of Judah, and further, the nation of Israel as the fathers of the twelve tribes were great-grandsons of Abraham. These are His physical true kin, but spiritually, He is Brother to all of us who believe on Him!

Jesus was born in Bethlehem.
From Abraham to David - 14 generations
From David until the captivity of Babylon-14 generations
From captivity in Babylon to birth of Jesus-14 generations.

Bethlehem Ephrata.
Why are people so interested in him since he was from Palestine? He was sent to be the savior of Mankind, not of one nation.

EG: You're right. Jesus himself said that "a prophet is now not unhonored except in his own territory." Have a great day.

Bethlehem meaning house of bread.
Joh 6:34 Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread.
Joh 6:35 And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.
Christ true kin are the spiritual seed of faith.
Gal 3:16 Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.
Gal 3:7 Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham.

God's Word tells us He was born in Bethlehem. Mormonism has his birth in Jerusalem. . .
He had siblings, though we don't know for certain how many.
God bless!

Jesus wasn't from Palestine. He's from Isreal.

We don't know, as it's a very convoluted myth.
