圣诞节(Christmmas)又称耶诞节,译名为“基督弥撒”,它源自古罗马人迎接新年的农神节,与基督教本无关系。在基督教盛行罗马帝国后,教廷随波逐流地将这种民俗节日纳入基督教体系,同时以庆祝耶稣的降生
Christmas, also known as Christmas, is translated as "Christ's Mass". It originated from the ancient Romans' New Year's Eve, and has nothing to do with Christianity. After the prevalence of Christianity in the Roman Empire, the Holy See incorporated this folk festival into the Christian system, while celebrating the birth of Jesus

经研究,一般认为12月25日伴为圣诞节可能开始于公元336年的罗马教会,约在公元375年传到小亚细亚的安提阿,公元430年传到埃及的亚历山大里亚,那路撒冷的教会接受得最晚,而亚美尼亚的教会则仍然坚持1月6日主显节是耶稣的诞辰。
