'''Jesus is the son of God.'''  Around 7 BC, an [[angel]] told a virgin named Mary that she would give birth to a son, and call his name Jesus.  On the night of his birth, angels announced his arrival to shepherds near Bethlehem.  Shortly after that, an aged man named Simeon and a prophetess named Anna prophecied over the infant child Jesus.  A brilliant star also appeared, and led wise men from the east to travel and worship Jesus.  As a result of the wise men's story, King Herod had all the children in Bethlehem 2 years and under slaughtered.  Joseph (who married the virgin Mary after the birth of Jesus) had been warned by an angel in a dream to leave Bethlehem and go to Egypt with Mary and the young child Jesus, and escaped Herod's slaughter.

King Herod died in 4 BC, which places the birth of Jesus before that time - possibly in 6 BC.
