VIDEO: An Explanation Of The Star Of Bethlehem

One of the arguments generally raised against the story of the star of Bethlehem is that there are no records of any new star or comet appearing at that time. But there may, in fact, have been a recording of a significant astronomical or astrological event that fits within the time frame. The video describes the discovery of a 1st Century coin minted by Quirinius (the governor of Judea that issued the census I discussed a few days ago) showing a star over the shoulder of a ram. The video discusses how this represents a rare conjunction of Jupiter and the Moon that appeared in the constellation Aries (which represented the region of the Levant) on April 17, 6 B.C.
