No. Judea and Galilee were separate territories separated by Samaria. In the time of Jesus, Judea was under direct Roman rule, while Galilee was ruled by King Herod Antipas.

When was the census of Quirinius?
A:Judea has been allowed to be autonomous under King Herod and then his son, Archelaus, so that Rome did not have to concern itself with administrative matters in a minor territory on the very edge of its empire. In 6 CE, the Roman government sacked Archelaus for incompetence and sent him into exile. It appointed Quirinius as governor of Syria, with oversight of Judea. In order that Judea could be taxed on the same basis as the rest of the Roman empire, Quirinius was to undertake a census in Judea as soon as possible after he took over. This was the first census to affect part of Palestine, but did not involve Galilee, as that territory was ruled by another of Herod's sons, Herod Antipas. The census took place in 6 CE, but possibly quite early in 7 CE.
What month was the King Herod census taken?
Because of the account in Luke's Gospel, historians have spent considerable effort in establishing the facts of this census, said to have occurred during the reign of King Herod and when Quirinius (or Cyrenius) was governor of Syria.They find that, in spite of Luke 2:1, there never was a census during the reign of Augustus. They have also established that Quirinius only became governor of Syria in 6 CE, ten years after the death of King Herod, and that he appears never to have held a less prominent position in Syria previously. They find that the Jewish historian, Josephus says that the census under Quirinius was indeed the first Roman census taken in Palestine.Scholars say that if there had been a Roman census during the time that Herod was alive, it would not have included Galilee or Judea, since Herod ruled autonomously and was responsible for raising his own taxes. In fact, the census described in the Gospel of Luke is a total anomaly.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. There was no census in the time of King Herod. Naturally we can not say what month a non-existent census took place.
Was it an angel Caesar Augustus King Herod or Joseph's mother who told Mary and Joseph to go to Bethlehem?
A:Looking at the options propsed: An angel - no. Luke's Gospel makes no mention of an angel in this context.Caesar Augustus - according to Luke's Gospel, yes (through delegation to the Syrian governor Quirinius). However, scholars and historians have great difficulty with this, since there was never an empire-wide census and Quirinius would have had no reason to call a census before 6 CE when the first known Roman census in Judea was called. The Roman governor of Syria had no authority over Judea before 6 CE, when the territory came under direct Roman rule.King Herod - no. It would have made more sense for Herod to require a resident of Galilee to go to Judea, since at that time he ruled both territories, but Luke says the census was called by Quirinius on the orders of Augustus. Herod died in April 4 BCE, long before the census of Quirinius.Joseph's mother - no. There is no mention in the Bible of Joseph's mother.

Herod Archelaus was over Judea, Herod Antipas ruled over Galilee and Peraea and Philip ruled areas east of the Jordan. In Matthew 2:22 Archelaus was mentioned as ruling over Judea after the death of his father, King Herod. The next Herod, Antipas was the one who killed John the Baptizer (Mark 14:3-12), sought to kill Jesus (Luke 13:31) and ultimately had a hand in the death of Jesus (Acts 4:27) Herod Agrippa I was the grandson of Herod the Great and is mentioned at Acts 12:1. He was the last Herod to rule although his son Herod Agrippa II was a prince mentioned later in Acts 25:13. Herod Phillip was mentioned at Matthew 14:3; Mark 6:1, 18 and Luke 3:19.
