Jan 22, 2018 at 17:30 comment added Tamir Evan @Oliver The Tosafot you cite seems to have a lot more than I could hope to incorporate into my answer, but I may include some of the sources it brings. Regarding the book of Jubilees, I'm leery of using it as a Jewish source, in spite the relatively warm reviews in the MY link you bring.
Jan 22, 2018 at 17:15 comment added Oliver Seeing your thoroughness, re. Isaac's birthday, I'd add to see Tos. (s.v. אלא) to RH and the midrashic references cited. Additionally, may as will add that Jubilees (16:13) records that he was born on the 15th of Sivan.
Jan 22, 2018 at 14:35 comment added Tamir Evan @רבותמחשבות Good question. From the supporting argument I brought, it could be any of them. This does, of course, minimize the exactness of the birth date. Should I remove it? Is it good enough?
