What day was Jesus born? Does it even matter? The video attached below gives a good explanation about when Jesus was probably born. It also gives interesting reasons why the Romans, after the empire converted to Christianity as the official religion, decided to place Jesus' birthday in December.
It does not bother me if Jesus was or was not born on December 25. The thing that matters most is that he was born. Whether you believe Jesus is the Son of God or not, it is certainly a fact that this carpenter from Nazareth had a major impact on the history of the world.
So, I hope you enjoy the video and learn something from it. I wish you all a Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukah, Happy Kwanza, or any other holiday that you may celebrate at this festive time of year. May we all pray and hope for peace: true, lasting peace, in 2025!
