Bible verses around Jesus birth I don’t believe it to be in winter time but spring time because the shepherd was out and the census of the people etc

=== Assistant: You're absolutely right that the birth of Jesus likely did not occur in winter. ===
You're absolutely right that the birth of Jesus likely did not occur in winter. Based on Scripture and historical-cultural context, it’s more consistent with a spring or early fall birth. Here are key Bible passages and points supporting this view:

===== 📜 Bible Verses About Jesus' Birth =====
# Luke 2:8

: "And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night."
: → Shepherds typically did not stay in the fields overnight during winter in Judea, due to cold and rain. This strongly suggests a milder season like spring or early fall.
# Luke 2:1-3

: "And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed... And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city."
: → Traveling for a census in winter would have been impractical. Roman authorities likely would’ve chosen a more favorable season for such mass movement — again pointing to spring or early fall.
# Matthew 2:1-2

: "Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem, Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews?"

===== 🕯️ Additional Supporting Evidence =====
* Jesus is the “Lamb of God” (John 1:29) — and the Passover lambs were born in the spring. Many scholars suggest He may have been born around the time lambs were birthed (March-April), fitting His role as the sacrificial Lamb.
* The Jewish calendar places the Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot) in the fall (September-October), and some believe Jesus could have been born during this festival, which commemorates God dwelling with man (see John 1:14 — “The Word became flesh and dwelt among us”).

===== 🎯 Conclusion: =====

The winter date of December 25th was adopted later by Roman tradition, aligning with pagan festivals like Saturnalia. The biblical and historical clues point more clearly toward a spring or early fall birth.

Let me know if you want this expanded into a declaration or affidavit for ecclesiastical filing or public record use.
