When was Jesus Born?
Was Jesus Born at Christmas? Was He born on Rosh Hashanah? Sukkot? When was Jesus Born?
The birth of Jesus (Yeshua in Hebrew) is a topic of great importance and curiosity for many. While Christmas is the widely celebrated time for his birth, there are interesting theories that place his birth during different Jewish holidays, such as Rosh Hashanah or Sukkot. Some scholars, like I, believe that Jesus was born during Sukkot, which commemorates God’s provision, protection, and presence for Israel in the wilderness, providing a meaningful connection to Jesus’ birth.
Every milestone in Jesus’ life happened on a Jewish holiday. He died on Passover; He rose on First Fruits; He ascended during Pentecost. Some believe He was born during Sukkot. Today, let’s discover the many reasons that may support this belief. Sukkot celebrates God’s provision, protection, and presence for Israel while in the wilderness and for all of us now.
