When was Jesus born?

Gaius Sentius Saturninus was governor of Syria until Late 7 or early 6 BC. He was succeeded by Publius Quinctilius Varus to whom fell the responsibility of crushing the revolts which broke out on the death of Herod the Great. Varus did so. There is an assumption that someone else was governor of Syria during the period 3 or 4 to 1 BC but there is no archaeological evidence to suggest this. Coins were minted by the local officials and we have no coins minted by another governor in that period. If we had those coins, we would know the name. Varus crushed the revolt, burned Sepphoris, and established the sons of Herod on their thrones. There is no indication that anyone jointly ruled with Herod who was a paranoid old fuck at the end.

The historical evidence and the numismatic evidence suggests that Varus' command was simply continued until Augustus' grandson was ready to be appointed Imperial Legatus ( governor) of Syria in 1 BC. The prolongation of a command was an old Roman tradition. They did not replace a successful commander in the middle of a war. They weren't stupid.

I realize that you think that all of history needs to be re-written in order to save your pious bullshit from the scrap heap it so richly deserves but other nations had histories and they are not dependent on your fairy tales.
