Levantine Christians (Lebanese and Palestinian Christians) might speak Arabic (thanks to 700s Muslim/Arab conquests ) but genetically they are more similar to Ashkenazi and Mizrahi Jews.

[@josephibraham8127]

Arabs and jews are literally from the same branch of people, the semetic people.

[@screamtoasigh9984]

@Eternal Fisherman I'm sorry you don't know what you are talking about. "In particular, conversion of the region's populations to Islam appears to have introduced major rearrangements in populations' relations through admixture with culturally similar but geographically remote populations, leading to genetic similarities between remarkably distant populations like Jordanians, Moroccans, and Yemenis. Conversely, other populations, like Christians and Druze, became genetically isolated in the new cultural environment." In conclusions, the authors reconstructed the genetic structure of ancient Levantines and found that a pre-Islamic expansion Levant was more genetically similar to Europeans than to Middle Easterners. **"The Druze people, a "genetic sanctuary" for the diversity of the Near East in antiquity, have been found in genetic studies to be the closest to Jews** of the populations in the Levant. Lebanese also cluster closely with Jewish ethnic groups, closer than Syrians and Palestinians" Family tree time (of the Levant): ALL Jews (Sephardi and Ashkenazi) genetically cluster in one branch; Druze from Mount Lebanon and Druze from Mount Carmel are depicted on a private branch; and Lebanese Christians form a private branch with the Christian populations of Armenia and Cyprus. Arab countries are only 40% Arab on average and Arabia is NOT the Levant.

Why do you celebrate in December even though jesus was born in the summer?

[@marksimons8861]

Putting aside the question whether Jesus was born at all, it does make sense that the Romans would organise a census in early summer (before the full blown heat hits, rather than the middle of winter. As another viewer has posted it can be snowy in the hill country,, including Bethlehem. Also mentioned is that Christmas is a pagan festival marking the winter solstice, and the sun (son?) starts to rise again three days later. A birthday can be commemorated any time you choose especially when the actual date is not precisely known.

[@infinit3platin7m90]

It is because Christmas was designated by The Church to celebrate an event that goes beyond a simple "birthday" (on Earth). Those who ask this question forget or do not recognize what Christmas is really about. Therefore, it doesn't matter when it actually occurred in history because God is eternal and does not really have a "birthday".

What is being referred to by Jeremiah 10:2-4 is actually idol worship. Understand what it is saying. They cut the tree out of the forest and then they work the wood from the tree into an idol. Then they adorn it with silver and gold. The purpose of all that is to worship it. What is being referred to is not simply taking a tree and decorating it.

Christmas originally is pagan holiday of Saturnalia. After Roman conversion to Christianity, and the birthday of Jesus made official at 25 December by a Pope (I forgot his name), then this Saturnalia festival converted to Jesus birthday celebration A.k.a Christmas

Christmas is the holiday dedicated to the birth of Santa Claus. Yes. It's truly a holiday when more people remember Santa Claus than Jesus. Part of this promotion is due to the business community. Jesus was not making money for them, so they chose Santa Claus to advertise sales. It became the biggest season for them just like Hannukah that most people have forgotten the religious significance of Hannukah and Christmas. It's sad..

Maronite militias did so (and most maronites today don't hold them in high regard because of that). Palestinian christians on the other hand were super integrated in Palestinian society, a lot of PLO leaders were christians (like George Habash who was basically the second most important leader after Arafat) and many christians also died in Sabra and Shatila. Also Israel was clearly involved the massacre, the fact they didn't "do the dirty work" doesn't mean they are innocent.

The Jews are God's cursed people, they told the Romans about the place of Christ and they left their prophet Moses in the Sinai desert when he went worshiping his Lord to allow them to enter the land of Canaan (Palestine) and when he returned to them they had made a calf of gold and seemed to worship him, and said to him, Go, you And the Lord and their killers (Canaanites) that the people of the mighty (Canaanites were nicknamed the Titans) and prove that in the Torah speaks of the wars of the Jews with the people of ancient Palestine, Canaanites Syriac and Phoenician, and then in the era of the Prophet Muhammad, when he was young he went with his grandfather to a Christian priest. The pastor said that this child would be of great value and the prophet might be expected His grandfather never gave up and the pastor 's name was Beheiri, and after Muhammad' s call began the Jews ridiculed him and they threw garbage either at his home.
