Isn’t this all tied to the dates of the Roman census and the requirement to return to the husband’s place of birth?
We can tie it down to an approximation. In those days when there was a decree like that, it wasnt a date certain, but rather a period. So the census may have been between August and october for example.
And anyway, they probably had acorn people working the numbers so they are not reliable.
Merry Christmas.
Well, it was all fun and games until you showed up.

Yeah, that was what got Joseph and Mary to Bethlehem at that right time... :-) ... which, of course, was where the Bible Prophecy said that the Messiah was to be born.
