James Lewis on Nostr: Jesus was born six months after John the Baptist, according to the biblical record ...
Jesus was born six months after John the Baptist, according to the biblical record (Luke 1:36), and John was conceived a little after Zachariah's service in the temple, which is an annual event in the late summer or early autumn, if I recall correctly, which puts John's birth in the late spring or early summer the following year, and so Jesus in the early winter.
