Description
Item Description:S. 292-293: "Jesus was probably born in Bethlehem in 6 C.E., and he was probably not born on December 25, at least if the shepherds in the fields, watching their flocks by night, have anything to say about it. Herod the // Great's presence in the Christmas tradition makes for good pageantry, but bad history."
