Thoroughly
reviewed and revised as of 5941[(?)] 08 12 2027 [2010-11-18] – In consequence
of my discovery of 19 CE – not 18 CE – being the year of crucifixion and resurrection,
etc…
The Astronomical Basis for
Fitting this Model of the Crucifixion Week
into Today’s Calendar
Abstract:
By
using certain web sites, and other references specified within, one may
identify in which years Aviv 14 may have been a Tuesday – as required by this
model, which model is founded upon the discovery that the week days of many
events are defined within the Greek text of Textus Receptus. The details of the study identifying those
years, as based upon specified references, are outlined below:
Possible Crucifixion years, marked in red in the tables below, are defined by the following
boundaries:
Chief criteria: Aviv 14 must be a Tuesday, starting Monday night, as
based upon Aviv 1 [=> Wed, beginning Tue night] defined as follows:
Aviv,
the 1st moon of the year, is determined based upon whether it occurs
between the earliest and latest likely date as follows:
The
earliest calculated Nisan 14 found is March 24, and the latest
calculated Nisan 14 found is April
26 searching all the 1159 available years
between 1580 CE and 2739 CE. (Cf. the Chabad web
site's 660 year Hebrew Calendar) [However, notice that these dates are NOT aviv
(ripened barley) dependent, which is a potential cause for error. To make up
for the potential Aviv ripening variation, one lunation before and one lunation
after the ones falling within the above interval are also considered.]
The
possible date in a lunar month [biblical moon] is then determined using Fred
Espenak's & NASA's Phases of the Moon table for 1 to 100 CE while also
considering that the new moon is visible in Jerusalem either the day after
astronomical new moon or the next day.
If the astronomical new moon occurs after
“In the Near East it takes
16.5 to 42 hours after conjunction [Parker,
The Calendars of Ancient Egypt, page 4], depending on whether her
movements in relation to her distance from the earth are fast or slow-before
the moon becomes visible again in the form of a thin crescent, waxing larger
and larger until the time of the full moon.”
Horn, Siegfrid, The Chronology of Ezra Seven, p. 11.
Time
and Date.com's Calendar for any year since 1 CE is used for determining
which weekday that corresponds to a given date (Greenwich Mean Time = UTC)
given within Fred
Espenak's & NASA's Phases of the Moon table for 1 to 100 CE (Cf. table
below!). A simpler way of accomplishing the same is by means of this Julian Day
Calculator [Use IE, Firefox won’t work for this calculator!]
[
Entering
these data into the table below yields the results marked in red font
below, red bold font for
the possible moons within the above interval. Possible Aviv months considered
for each year are those listed below under each of the years 15 through 37 CE.
