NASA scientists have calculated the date a lunar eclipse occurred in A.D. 33 that may pinpoint the day of Jesus’ crucifixion.
In Genesis 1, we read that God said, “Let there be lights in the expanse of the heavens to separate the day from the night. And let them be for signs and for seasons and for days and years.”
So it’s not surprising there would be a least one sign in the heavens to mark the death of Jesus as a sacrifice for the sins of the world.
The New York Post reported that NASA’s “astronomical models suggest that a lunar eclipse turned the moon red over Jerusalem on Friday, April 3, 33 AD — a date many scholars tie to Jesus’ death.”

April 3, 33 AD, was a Sunday.
Yes it was on a Friday so Jesus is not the one lying.
I looked it up, and April 3, 33AD was a Friday. You can do the same.
I’m still of the mindset that Jesus was born sometime between 6 BC and 4 BC. And Luke 3:23 has the Greek word “hosei” meaning “about” 30 years old. So we’re not sure of when Jesus was born or exactly how old He was when He began His ministry (even if we’re sure He did His ministry for 3 years before being crucified).
Anybody with the software has been able to do this for years. Old news.
Star of Bethlehem etc.
Yes?

No, he didn’t. He linked to the article.
With out An Empty Tomb...

Every Cross should be viewed thru
A Rolled Away stone and Empty Tomb
Revealing a Triumphant Savior!
Okay. In true FR tradition, I didn’t read the article on Hoft’s site. :)
It feels to me like FR has become a mirror site for Gateway Pundit and I don’t like giving it clicks.
I believe that day is critical for a future unbelieving Israel to resolve and understand, like the ‘abomination of desolation’ is something for the reader to understand, for us Christians its a matter of great interest only.
“Saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes.” Luke 19:42
I believe it was on the April 6th 32 AD when Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a donkey fulfilling that prophecy and was then crucified on the 14th of Nisan, Wednesday April 9th, 32 AD.
Jesus was in the tomb by 6 PM just prior to sunset then rose again Sunday morning (after 6 PM Saturday night) on the 17th day of Nisan. In the tomb for three days and three nights. Going from the 14th of Nisan to 17th of Nisan, April 13th, 32 AD.
April 13th 32 AD -— 14,000 days -—> Temple is destroyed after burning three days, August 12th 70 AD.
Jesus began speaking in Parables one year earlier, just my conjecture but I believe Israel was given 40 years to repent, they did not and their house was left desolate.
40 years x 360 days = 14,400 days.
This date also coincides with Daniel Chapter 9 and Gabriel explaining the timing of the coming of Messiah, and also aligns with Israel (the People) restored May 14th, 1948 and Jerusalem (the City) restored June 7th 1967 counting from the Babylonian Captivity where they failed to keep the Jubilee and God required that time back (70 years) to keep the Laws and Ordinances mechanism Holy, so that Messiah could later insert himself into this dead world and restore it with the Jubilee of his Holy life.
“And I will make your cities waste, and bring your sanctuaries unto desolation, and I will not smell the savour of your sweet odours. And I will bring the land into desolation: and your enemies which dwell therein shall be astonished at it. And I will scatter you among the heathen, and will draw out a sword after you: and your land shall be desolate, and your cities waste. Then shall the land enjoy her sabbaths, as long as it lieth desolate, and ye be in your enemies’ land; even then shall the land rest, and enjoy her sabbaths.” Leviticus 26:31-34
” . . .Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? nay, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush: therefore shall they fall among them that fall: in the time of their visitation they shall be cast down, saith the Lord” Jeremiah 8:11-12
“and shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another; because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.” Luke 19:44
“Behold, your house is left unto you desolate. For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.” Matthew 23:38-39
“And when the people were gathered thick together, he began to say, This is an evil generation: they seek a sign; and there shall no sign be given it, but the sign of Jonas the prophet.” Luke 11:29
“for as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale’s belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.” Matthew 12:40
Now match it to an earthquake that shook Jerusalem at the death of Jesus
In the Church of Holy Sepulchre, if you get to go to the underground under where the cross now stands, guides will show you the cracked rock where the cross replica stands …from an earthquake
Interesting extra lore…our guide claimed local legend is this is the same spot where Cain slew Able and his blood dripped into the ground
They have stories on stories over there!
That is an age old question. However, is there biblical proof angels dance? I’m sure that could lead to centuries of discussion too.

Could it just be that puny humans are afflicted with affixing dates, and Christ could not much care about the yearly calendar — the biblical ‘calendar’ fulfillment another matter — he cared about redeeming our souls.
33 AD..
We’re definitely about 2,000 years from that year..
About 2,000 isn’t an exact number, but it’s not an insignificant number in the scriptures..
My father, grandfather, unborn child all died on April 1st ten years apart. My GF in 1961, child in 1971 and father in 1981. In 2015 I went into the hospital on April 1st with 5% heart function. Thankfully it wasn’t a ‘1’ year or I might not be here.
Jesus was killed on a passover. The Passover is always a full moon. It is impossible to have an eclipse of a full moon. NASA is wrong.
