THE STAR of BETHLEHEM ALIGNS WITH FALL ASTRONOMY (PT 18: OF JESUS CHRIST BIRTHDAY IS NOT DECEMBER 25TH)

12/23/2025UncategorizedAstronomy, bethlehem, birth, God, God the Father, God the Holy Spirit, jesus, Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ birth, jesus christ birthday is not december 25th, new testament, Old Testamentabarkley8

The biblical account of Jesus’ birth is rich with detail, yet it is striking for what it does not include. Nowhere in Scripture do we find imagery of winter conditions surrounding the nativity. There is no mention of cold weather, rain, snow, frozen ground, or sheltering from harsh elements. Instead, every environmental detail recorded in the Gospel narrative points away from winter and toward a milder season, making a December 25th birth inconsistent with the biblical record.

One of the clearest biblical indicators for understanding the timing of Jesus’ birth is the age difference between Him and John the Baptist. Scripture provides a detailed record of the circumstances surrounding both births, making it possible to see how their timelines connect. Luke’s Gospel gives precise information, allowing readers to understand that John the Baptist was six months older than Jesus, a detail that helps establish the season in which Jesus was born.

Heavy or uncontrollable bleeding the KJV translates the underlying Hebrew and Greek terms as “issue of blood” (Lev 12:7; Matt 9:20) or “fountain of blood” (Mark 5:29). Modern translations render these terms as hemorrhage, flow, or discharge of blood, Mosaic law said any discharge of blood, whether associated with the birthing process (Lev 12:7), with menstruation (Lev 15:19), or continued bleeding (Lev 15:25; Matt 9:20) rendered a woman unclean.

AGAINST SO MANY BIBLICAL COMMANDS, HOW CAN SOLOMON ADVISE THAT THERE IS A TIME TO KILL, TO TEAR DOWN, AND TO HATE?

Solomon’s list of times and “seasons” must be viewed within the larger context of life an history. He is not necessarily saying, “Hey, it’s twelve o’clock, time to kill-so go out and bump someone off.” Rather, Solomon insists that human life takes place within a larger framework of events that repeat down through history: laughter, tears, killing, healing, destruction, building, death, birth.

The woman guilty of sexual misconduct was to lose her capacity for childbearing. This was a fearsome penalty indeed, for women in the ancient Near East established their sense of personal value and esteem on one activity only-bearing and raising children. Education, business, military status, community leadership-none of these were open to women; motherhood was everything.

WOMEN OF THE BIBLE (LEAH: THE UNLOVED SISTER)

Leah’s father, Laban, was a piece of work. It wasn’t being his oldest daughter. Her greater burden, however, was being the older sister of Rachel.

Everybody noticed Rachel. And why not? the Bible bluntly says she “was shapely and beautiful” (Gen 29:17); we can be sure family members, neighbors, and adolescent men raved nonstop about her. Meanwhile, poor Leah is described only as having “ordinary eyes.” The idea is that next to her head-turning sister, Leah was all but invisible.

The Gospel writer Luke precedes his account of Jesus’ birth with that of a lesser (though still prominent) figure in Jewish prophecy: the forerunner who would prepare the way for the Messiah and announce his arrival.

The circumstance of this forerunner’s birth were memorable. His mother, Elizabeth, was a relative of Jesus’ mother, Mary. His father, Zechariah, served as a priest in the temple. One day the angel Gabriel appeared to Zechariah to announce that he and his wife would have a son. When Zechariah asked how that could be possible, since he and Elizabeth were well past the age when most people become parents, Gabriel told him he would be mute until his son was born because of his unbelief (Luke 1:5-20).

The Bible is a historical book as well as a spiritual one. As such, it contains many important historical leaders and describes their impact on the nation of Israel. These people are not often used as symbols in the Bibles, but their influence on the history of God’s people carries symbolic importance because of the particular interactions they had. The Jews look back on these leaders as people who operated under the sovereign will of God either to help them as an instrument of mercy or to test and punish them as an executor of his just wrath.
