1: Clues from Quirinius The birth of Jesus took place during the time of a census when Quirinius was Roman governor of Syria. When was that? |
2: Clues from Herod's death The birth of Jesus must have taken place well before the death of Herod. We are able to calculate when that was from an eclipse of the moon. |
3: The Tabernacles Theory An interesting theory attempting to discover the birthday of Jesus by using the Old Testament to pinpoint events in the New. |
4: The Luke 1:26 Theory The Bible tells us the month of the year Jesus was conceived so the birth is easy to work out. Or is it? |
