OFC...that's all christ myth stuff, not historical jesus. "Born in bethlehem" is not part of the consensus.
The author or originator(s) appear to be concerned with christs jewishness, his lineage - though they appear confused as to whether it ought to be through mom or dad so both get the treatment - and ofc we see they invent some anachronistic donkey tour involving a desperately pregnant couple to bethlehem as part of consolidating that effort. Is this part of the myth representative of the religious sensibilities of the proto-christians it came from, or was jesus the man, the historical jesus..a charismatic whose life had been revised in his own time to more properly fit the structure of his cult?
