Incarnation of Jesus (conception on 25 March and birth on 25 December), as assigned by Dionysius Exiguus in his anno Domini era according to most scholars (Dionysius used the word 'incarnation', but it is not known whether he meant conception or birth).Georges Declercq, 'Anno Domini: The origins of the Christian Era' (Turnhout, Belgium: Brepols, 2000), pp.143–147.G. Declercq, 'Dionysius Exiguus and the introduction of the Christian Era', 'Sacris Erudiri' "41" (2002) 165–246, pp.242–246. Annotated version of a portion of 'Anno Domini'. However, at least one scholar thinks Dionysius placed the incarnation of Jesus in the next year, 1AD 1. Most modern scholars do not consider Dionysius' calculations authoritative, placing the event several years earlier (see Chronology of Jesus).James D. G. Dunn, 'Jesus Remembered', Eerdmans Publishing (2003), page 324.
