Was Jesus born on June 17?

Answer 1

The birthdate of Jesus is not knowable. Attempts to ascertain the year and the month have been made, trying to accommodate the Biblical account with any unusual astronomical events about that time. But these ignore the fact that the Nativity story, with its Magi following a mysterious Star in the East, was borrowed from the older myth of Mithras, the Zoroastrian God of the Word, whose miraculous birth was celebrated on December 25.

Answer 2

According to christian religion he was born in December 25 not June.

Answer:

The Christian's Bible offers no time line for the birth, but as the shepherds were in the fields with their flocks we must assume it was during the warmer months of the year. The only other reference would be the Qur'an which indicated that Mary paused to eat fresh ripe dates from a tree shortly before the birth of her son. This would indicate a June or July date.

The present association of December and Christmas seems to be a date chosen to second pagan festivals observed in many parts of the world.

Answer 3

No, Jesus was traditionally believed to have been born on December 25. The exact date of his birth is not specified in The Bible.
