There was no Syrian emperor at the end of the first century BCE. Syria was under Roman rule. the author of Luke's Gospel seems to have believed that Quirinius was the Roman governor at the time, but this is not possible if Jesus was born during the reign of King Herod, who ruled Judea, Samaria, Galilee and the Decapolis.
