Is it true Jesus was really born in June?

Is it true Jesus was born in June?

  • Answer:

    I heard May. First, some astronomer figured out the "star" that the wise men were following and when they could have done so. Shepherds only watch their flocks at night during lambing season, to protect them from predators. The church just needed a holiday to compete with the winter solstice celebrations.

They were thinking more along the lines of spring, that Jesus may have been an Ares in fact, because of the star the wise men followed, which would've only been visible that time of year. Still, there's no evidence but it's not dec 25th like dionyses thought since he calculated using a calendar that didn't include zero. And about Nazereth- that wasn't a place, it's a name given to moral leaders, so Jesus of Nazereth refers to a word meaning truth, separated or a shoot. When people hear the word Nazerene, this is what it means, Jesus wasn't from a place called Nazereth, he was a Nazerene, now there is a place with that name.

He was born in December hence Christmas and such, so no it is not true however it would have been summer.

People say he would have to be born during the spring because in the bible it says that the shepherds were watching their flocks by night and it would have been too cold in the winter for that. However that only rules out one season. If spring is warm enough for the shepherds to be out at night then the summer definitely would have been too. And a lot of the fall still would have been warm enough for this as well.

No, but there is doubt about his birth place. It might have been Nazerith not Bethlehem.
