⁣There are several clues that YAHUSHUA was born at Sukkot:

1. Bethleham was "booked solid." This would not have been due census which
would have taken place over the period of a year. Every Jew was required
to come to Jerusalem for Sukkot (Dt. 16:16) this would have over run
Jerusalem as well as Bethleham just five miles away.

2. YAHUSHUA was born in a stable. The Hebrew word for "stable" is "sukkah" (as in
Gen. 33:17) so it is likely that YAHUSHUA was born in a Sukkah/booth.

3. If YAHUSHUA was born on the first day of Sukkot then he would have been
circumcised on the "eighth great day" a festival following Sukkot. This
day was the original "Simchat Torah" (Rejoicing in the Torah) which is
now held the following day in Rabbinic Judaism. So YAHUSHUA would have
entered the covenant on the day of "rejoicing in the Torah."

4. When the angels appeared to the shepherds they made a statement which
closely echos the ancient Sukkot liturgy "...behold, we have come to
declare to you glad tidings of great joy." (Lk. 2:10-11)

5. Sukkot is symbolic of God dwelling in a "tabernacle" (body?) with us.

Now in Mt. 2:7-8, Herod kills all the children two and under. The fact that
he killed such a wide range indicates that he did not know quite how
long ago Messiah had been born. YAHUSHUA's parents fled to Egypt until
they heard Herod was dead. They were back in Bethleham in time to
perform Miriam's (Mary's) purification and YAHUSHUA's dedication on the
40th day after YAHUSHUA's birth (as required by Torah) (Luke 2:22-38).

By this time Herod had to be dead or they could not have come to the
Temple in Jerusalem. Herod had to have died during the 40 days between
YAHUSHUA's birth, and his dedication 40 days later. Herod is known to
have died in September of 4 B.C.E. So YAHUSHUA had to have born in the
fall (this rules out that Zechariah could have been serving during
Abijah's second course of the year, since that would place YAHUSHUA's
birth in the Spring and not allow for Herod's death during the 40 days
after his birth in the fall). This also tells us that the year of
YAHUSHUA's birth was 4 B.C.E.


When YAHUSHUA was born the shepherds were at watch in their fields (Lk. 2:8)
which could not have been in the Winter.
In fact it can be shown that YAHUSHUA was born at Sukkot (Boothes/Tabernacles) in 4 B.C.E..
