The nativity accounts in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke are entirely different from each other, and John Shelby Spong (Born of a Woman: A Bishop Rethinks the Birth of Jesus), says that neither of the nativity stories contains any historical truth. Matthew's Gospel was written before that of Luke, so its author could have known nothing of what would be written in Luke as few years later.
