The Star of Bethlehem, a Comet in 5 BC and the Date of Christ's Birth

Colin J. Humphreys presents a scholarly analysis arguing that the Star of Bethlehem was a real astronomical event: a comet visible in 5 BC. Drawing on ancient records, biblical texts, and modern astronomy, he explores how this comet could have guided the Magi and aligns with historical timelines for Jesus' birth.

The work challenges mythical or miraculous interpretations, advocating for a natural celestial phenomenon.
