Josephus Misdated the Census of Quirinius

Josephus Misdated the Census of Quirinius

  • Semi-Technical
  • John H. Rhoads

The Gospel of Luke (Luke 2:1-2) and the first-century Jewish historian Josephus differ on the date for the census of Quirinius. In this study, the author argues that Josephus's account of the census and the revolt by Judas the Galilean is actually a mistaken duplication of events that occurred much earlier.
