Yeshua’s (Jesus) Birth Birthdate Although the bible never provides a specific date for the birth of Yeshua, there are numerous accounts that have specified that he was born the 21st day of Nisan in the sign of Aries, which in the modern day Gregorian calendar would be in April. So why do we celebrate his birth in December?

It became firmly established as part of Christian tradition by the 4th century.
