Christmas is not explicitly mentioned in the Bible. However, the celebration of Jesus' birth, which is the basis of Christmas, is recorded in the Gospel of Matthew and the Gospel of Luke. The two accounts describe different traditions and details, but both speak of the birth of Jesus and the events that followed. In the Gospel of Matthew, Jesus was born in Bethlehem, and wise men brought gifts to him. In the Gospel of Luke, shepherds in the fields were told about the birth of Jesus and went to worship him.
