re: #298 Eclectic Cyborg
I thought he had been born in Bethlehem but grew up in Nazareth.
His mother and Joseph lived in Nazareth but supposedly went to Bethlehem for a Roman census which the best record keepers in the ancient world, the Romans, have no record of. The real reason was to fulfill the prophecy that the Messiah would be born in Bethlehem.
This is due to editing by the authors of the Gospels to tie up a loose end.
