Best Answer
A:According to both Matthew and Luke, Jesus was born during the reign of King Herod, who died in April 4 BCE. According to Luke, he was also born during the census of Quirinius, which took place ten years later, in 6 CE. Raymond E. Brown (An Introduction to the New Testament) says the best explanation is that, although Luke likes to set his Christian drama in the context of well-known events from antiquity, sometimes he does so inaccurately.
