Bethlehem is in Palestine.
The Catholic Church did not exist in 4 BC.
There are 2016 years, remembering that there was no year zero.
Jesus was born in Bethlehem, David was from Bethlehem
The king who sought to destroy Jesus was King Herod, but there were 8 [eight] "Herods". They were all as bad as one another, they were all Idumeanians [that is, Edomites: they were not jews], and they all hated the jews and everything they stood for. So specifically:-King Herod the Great (37BC --> 4BC) slew children in Bethlehem [Matt 2:16-18]Herod Archelaus (4BC --> 6AD) would have killed Jesus if Joseph had returned to Bethlehem as would have been expected [Matt 2:22] since that was where his family and relatives lived. The implication is that Archelaus was waiting for Joseph to return there.Herod Antipas (4BC --> 39AD) killed John the Baptist and Jesus was silent before himAfter Jesus died they killed and persecuted His followers, but only the heads are mentioned:-Herod Agrippa killed James and imprisoned PeterHerod Agrippa II Paul was tried before himIt is safe to say that between them all 8 [eight] Herods sought to destroy Jesus Christ and Christianity.
All of each of 5BC, 4BC, 3BC, 2BC, 1BC, 1AD, 2AD, 3AD, 4AD, so 9 Or, you might mean 4BC ........... 4AD so 8
