No one knows for sure. The New Testament provides conflicting time frames.

Jesus was born on or before 4BCE, because Herod died 4BCE.

Jesus was born on or after 6CE, because Cyrenius became governor of Syria on 6CE:-

However, some think it was on the Feast of Tabernacles (September-October).

The exact date of birth of Jesus Christ is not known, although over several centuries December 25 evolved as the day it is celebrated. But while biblical scholars do not know exactly when Christ was born, they generally agree it was actually in the spring or fall, not in late December.
