It has NOTHING to do with the Bible, just PRETENDS tom be.
But still it is TRADITION- so people like lemmings follow it!

Was Christ born at that time?

Was it "3 wise men" who saw the 'Star'.

Origin of Christmas Tree

They cut down a tree, and a craftsman carves an idol.
They decorate it with gold and silver and then fasten it securely with a hammer and nails so it won’t fall over…..Jer 10:3-4 (NLT)

Hear the word which the Lord speaks to you, O house of Israel. Thus says the Lord: "Do not learn the way of the Gentiles; Do not be dismayed at the signs of heaven, For the Gentiles are dismayed at them.
For the customs of the peoples are futile; For one cuts a tree from the forest, The work of the hands of the workman, with the ax.
They decorate it with silver and gold; They fasten it with nails and hammers So that it will not topple.
They are upright, like a palm tree, And they cannot speak; They must be carried Because they cannot go by themselves. Do not be afraid of them, For they cannot do evil, Nor can they do any good."
Inasmuch as there is none like You, O Lord (You are great, and Your name is great in might),
Who would not fear You, O King of the nations? For this is Your rightful due. For among all the wise men of the nations, And in all their kingdoms, There is none like You.

But they are altogether dull-hearted and foolish; A wooden idol is a worthless doctrine.
Silver is beaten into plates; It is brought from Tarshish, And gold from Uphaz, The work of the craftsman And of the hands of the metalsmith; Blue and purple are their clothing; They are all the work of skillful men.
But the Lord is the true God; He is the living God and the everlasting King. At His wrath, the earth will tremble, And the nations will not be able to endure His indignation. Jer 10:1-10 (NKJV)

They decorate it with silver and gold; They fasten it with nails and hammers So that it will not topple. Jer 10:4 (NKJV)

Thus you shall say to them: "The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth shall perish from the earth and from under these heavens."
He has made the earth by His power, He has established the world by His wisdom, And has stretched out the heavens at His discretion. Jer 10:11-12 (NKJV)

Luke 2:13-15 (KJV) And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,
Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, goodwill toward men.
And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us.

Job 38:7 (KJV) When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?

Wrong time. Matthew opens by saying AFTER JESUS had been born the 'wise men' saw the star...

(And the 'star' doesn't lead them that way...)

Matthew 21:31 (NKJV) Which of the two did the will of his father?" They said to Him, "The first." Jesus said to them, "Assuredly, I say to you that tax collectors and harlots enter the kingdom of God before you.

Luke 18:13-14 (NKJV) And the tax collector, standing afar off, would not so much as raise his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, 'God, be merciful to me a sinner!'
I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted."

Eph 5: 6- Let no one deceive you with empty words, for it is because of these things that the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.

After it led them to Herod, did it lead them to God-baby-Jesus?
