The Birth of Jesus Christ, depicted with accurate chronology of events synchronized in the Gospels
The Birth of Jesus, The Christ, depicted with accurate chronology of events as they actually occurred, and synchronized between the Gospel accounts of Matthew and Luke in the English Standard Version Bible (ESV). The books of Mark and John do not contain an account of the birth of Jesus.
The Lord Jesus, The christ, was actually born on the first day of Nisan (late March) on the Jewish calendar. There are important facts regarding the Feast of Tabernacles, celebrated by Israel in the Old Testament (Torah), and the prophesies about God, the Son, the Christ, the Messiah, the King Of Israel, becoming flesh (the Son Of Man) in the world to rule over Israel, which coincided with the beginning of the Feast of Tabernacles, taking place on the first day of Nissan (late March, in 6 BC).
In fact, Nissan 1 was the actual first day of the Jewish New Year as instituted by Moses. "Rosh Hashanah" was later changed to the first and second day of Tishri, occurring in late September or early October, due to the adoption of the Gregorian calendar.
Prior to the reign of the Roman emperor, Constantine, the early Christians did not celebrate the birth of the Lord, Jesus, the Christ. The church in Rome began formally celebrating Christmas on December 25 in 336AD (CE), during the reign of the emperor Constantine.
The emperor, Constantine, made Christianity the effective religion of the Roman empire, and it is speculated that choosing this date had the political motive of weakening the established pagan celebrations of the winter solstice. Moreover, prior to this change in the 3rd century, the Roman Empire had not yet adopted Christianity, and instead celebrated the rebirth of the “Unconquered Sun” (Sol Invictus) on December 25th. This holiday not only marked the return of longer days after the winter solstice but also followed the popular Roman festival called the Saturnalia, during which, people feasted and exchanged gifts.
At first, the December 25th date for celebrating the birth of the Lord Jesus, was not widely accepted in the Roman Empire, instead favoring January 6 for another half century, and the celebration of Christmas did not become a major Christian festival until the 9th century.
These facts do not diminish the celebration of the birth of the Lord, Jesus, on the 25th of December, however, it does explain why the visit of the Magi (Wise men from the East) bearing gifts for the Lord Jesus — the young “King of the Jews”— was woven into the tradition of Christmas as an event that took place at the time of His birth, thereby, superseding and “Christianizing” the gift exchange during the pagan celebration of Saturnalia.
However, the wise men from the east did not present their gifts to the Lord, Jesus, until he was a small “child” around two years of age, living in a “house” with Mary and Joseph—a clear “scriptural fact” recorded in the Gospels.
This also explains why Herod had all of the male children in Bethlehem, “up to two years old,” killed, after finding out that it took the wise men around two years to travel to Jerusalem from the time they had first observed the star announcing the birth of the newborn King of Israel, the Lord Jesus, the Christ.
