The Bible does not specify a day or month for Jesus’ birth, so there is no verse that says he was born on December 25 or any other particular date. Early Christian writers and later liturgical histories discuss December 25 as a traditional date chosen for Christmas, but this is not a direct biblical claim about the actual date of his birth. Luke 2 describes the circumstances of Jesus’ birth (in Bethlehem during a Roman census) but does not provide a calendar date. The idea of December 25 being Jesus’ birth date appears in later sources such as Hippolytus of Rome and the Chronography of 354, and it became established in Western Christian practice largely for theological and cultural reasons rather than explicit biblical evidence. If you’d like, I can summarize the main historical arguments for why December 25 became associated with Christmas and outline the alternative theories about the season of Jesus’ birth.
