The Gospels of Matthew and Luke.
AnswerThe Gospels of Matthew and Luke contain stories of the birth of Jesus.Both accounts had Jesus born in the royal city of Bethlehem, and in both cases an angel announced the divine conception of Jesus. But one gospel says the angel spoke to Mary, the other says the angel spoke to Joseph. Neither gospel author knew about story of the angel in the other gospel and the stories would not make sense if both were true.
In Matthew, Bethlehem was the hometown of Mary and Joseph. Magi came following a star from the east to worship Jesus, alerting King Herod to a possible threat to his rule. Mary and Joseph fled to Egypt to escape the threat from Herod, only returning after his death, but Joseph was told in a dream to turn aside and travel to Galilee, where Jesus grew up in the town of Nazareth.
In Luke, the hometown of Mary and Joseph was Nazareth in Galilee, but they were required by a census to travel to Bethlehem, where Jesus was born in a manger. Poor shepherds came to worship him. A few weeks later, Mary and Joseph travelled to Jerusalem and then returned peacefully to Nazareth, where Jesus grew up.
The modern understanding of the nativity is a conflation of the two accounts in Matthew and Luke, having Nazareth as the home town of Joseph and Mary, and paying little regard to the flight to Egypt and return.
AnswerMathew and Luke. However each of these gospels tell a different and contradicting story.

∙ 13y agoThe birth of Jesus is foretold nowhere in The Bible. In fact, Jesus was never mentioned before the New Testament, which begins with the life of Jesus.
However, Matthew's Gospel refers to Isaiah 7:14 as evidence that the virginity of Mary had been prophesied. But Isaiah 7:14, in the original Hebrew, actually says, "the young woman", and the young woman in question did have a child a few verses later in Isaiah. The problem arose in Matthew's reliance on a mistranslation in the Septuagint, a flawed early Greek translation of the Hebrew scriptures.
Even if Isaiah 7:14 did refer to a virgin birth (which it does not) it could just as easily refer to modern IVF births, because Jesus is not mentioned. So, the Book of Isaiah does not foretell the birth of Jesus.
