1 | Was there herding on/about December? | NT general Archive 1 | Joeyb | 106862 | ||
There is no evidence that Jesus was born on December 25th. We don't way day of the year He was born. Therefore, the question of whether shepherds would be herding in late December is mostly moot. | ||||||
2 | Was there herding on/about December? | NT general Archive 1 | JCrichton | 106897 | ||
Taleb, hi! You are missing my point. Your previous example sets the date to Nov-Dec; I have always thought that it could be possible to get at least close approximation to Christ's birth date. But there are too many conflicting thoughts in the matter, so I gave it up. Your post perked up my interest. So I wondered what the climate would've been in that region around Jesus' birth. I thought perhaps you had some info on it. I still believe that a Dec date could be possible because we have experienced many mild Winters (Eastern region) in the US, and I conclude that it could have been such an experience for the shepherds and their herds! God Bless! |
