					<description><![CDATA[Thank you for cutting to the chase on this issue! While I understand how hard it is for modern Christians to read things such as this... the truth of matters dealing with Yeshua/Jesus... must eventually come into the light! It&#039;s been 2000 years nearly... I think it&#039;s time!!! Also... thanks for using the term &quot;Yehovah&quot; for God Most High... this also appears to be coming to light aft 2 millennia with the work of people like Dr. Nehemia Gordon!  Blessings and shalom shalom...]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Very interesting reading. Years ago I read the books by Isaac Asimov regarding the Bible. I recall his figuring out that the birth of Christ had to be years before \&quot;B.C.\&quot; to have been born in the reign of Herod. 
Here is his explanation if it copies from my PDF version of the books correctly:
----------------
Herod ascended the throne in 716 a.u.c, that is,
37 b.c. He reigned for thirty-three years, dying in 749 a.u.c. or 4 b.c.
But if that is so, it is impossible for Jesus to have been bom in
753 a.u.c. and still have been bom \&quot;in the days of Herod the king,\&quot;
since Herod had died four years before. If Jesus were born in the time
of Herod then he must have been born no later than 4 b.c. 
-------------
a.u.c. being the year of the founding of the city of Rome, the way Romans tracked the years. 

As far as the month - I went to Israel in October 2021. I travelled all over the area, Palestine, Jerusalem, Dead Sea, and you could walk around in shorts and t-shirts. In much of the country didn\&#039;t appear to get very cold in the winter. Asimov doesn\&#039;t argue the point of the month other than to suggest, as you did, December 25th is the birthday of the sun........ so.......... but he doesn\&#039;t argue against it being later in the year than September or October other than to suggest being with the flocks at night would have meant much shorter days/longer, more cold nights. 

Your article has prompted me to read Asimov\&#039;s books again. 

Sometimes we spend so much time trying to get to a specific place, or looking for something, that we miss what\&#039;s right next to us or all around us. 
Maybe one day we\&#039;ll realize that what we seek and need is all around us if we just open our eyes (and minds).]]></description>
