The actual day of Yeshua's birth more likely would have been on the 15th day, not the 1st day of Tishri as the author here states, and based on the sighting of the new moon in Israel (when Tishri begins), this puts the birthday of Yeshua (when the Word was made flesh) beginning on the eve of the 25th of September, the start of Sukkot (the feast of Tabernacles).
Either way, sometime around September is far closer to the actual day of His birth than December. :)
It’s fascinating, thank you for your post.
And also fascinating because Christ’s enemies throughout history seem to believe His birthday to be September 11th.
Conceived as the light entering the temple (John 10:22 / John 8:12)shalom b'SHEM Yah'shua HaMashiachI start by reading John 1:14 under the illumination of the Ru'ach HaKodesh.
John 1:14 And the WORD became flesh,The word for Tabernacle, mishkan, is a derivative of the
and [fn]dwelt among us,
and we saw His glory,
glory as of the only begotten from the Father,
full of grace and truth.[fn](1:14) Or, tabernacled; i.e. lived temporarily
σκηνόω Strong's G4637 - skēnoō
1) to fix one's tabernacle,
have one's tabernacle,
abide (or live) in a tabernacle (or tent),
tabernacle
2) to dwell
same root and is used in the sense of dwelling-place in the BibleThe verse also provides illumination as to
Yah'shua being the Shekhinah glory.Shekhinah means the dwelling or settling, and denotes the dwelling
or settling of the divine presence of God, especially in the Temple in Jerusalem.Here is a very visual source:
Jesus' date of birthJust based on scripture.
Again the first clue to the birth of Yah'shua is John 1:14 as cited above.
Important events in the life of Yah'shua occurred
on YHvH commanded Feast days as metaphors of the feast.Conceived as the light entering the temple (John 10:22 / John 8:12)
Born on the Feast of Tabernacles.(John 1:14)
Circumcised on the Feast of Simchat Torah ( Joy of the WORD)
Bread and wine of the Pesach.
Death as the Lamb of G-d on Hag Matzoh.
Rising on the Feast of First Fruits.
Sending the Ru'ach HaKodesh on the Feast of Shavuot(Pentecost).Who knows if the final trump will occur on the Feast of Trumpets
Seek YHvH in His WORD.
“this puts the birthday of Yeshua (when the Word was made flesh) beginning on the eve of the 25th of September, the start of Sukkot (the feast of Tabernacles)”
I’m guessing you simply slipped when you said this, but the Word was made flesh at the conception of Christ, not at His birth.
December 25 could quite possibly have been when He was conceived in Mary’s womb.
Otherwise, I agree with your suggestion that His birth would match well with the feast of Tabernacles.
