Christmas customs comprise the exhibit of Nativity scenes and Christmas trees, the exchange of gifts and cards, and the appearance of Santa Claus on Christmas Eve. Christmas Day falls on December 25, considered as a birthdate for Jesus is purely conventional, and is not thought to be his definite date of birth. It is indefinite precisely when or why December 25 became connected with Jesus' birth. The New Testament does not offer an exact date. Sextus Julius Africanus popularized the thought that Jesus was born on December 25 in his Chronographiai, a suggestion book for Christians. |
