Help Fact about Jesus Birth

The exact date of Jesus' birth is not mentioned in the Bible. December 25th was chosen as the date to celebrate his birth by the early Christian Church. This date coincided with the pagan Roman festival known as Saturnalia, which celebrated the winter solstice and the birth of the sun god. By adopting December 25th, the Church aimed to provide an alternative celebration for Christians while also potentially encouraging the conversion of pagans. It's important to note that the focus of the Christmas celebration is on the birth of Jesus, rather than the precise date.
