The Essence of Perfection Robert Weber

Ever wonder why Christmas is on Dec. 25 or why the Catholic Church set this date for the Nativity? The Talmud states that the truest Jewish prophets were born during Passover and died during Passover. Since the gospels inform us that Jesus was crucified during a Passover, it can be reasoned that, as a Jewish prophet, he was also born during a Passover. Therefore, Jesus lived an integral life, or one of perfection with time. This is not a new idea. Many of the early Church Fathers thought about this concept, but the political climate of the period halted its full development--that is, until now.
