For those in learning mode BCE is defined as ‘Before Common Era’ and was meant to replace BC or Before Christ. CE is defined as ‘Common Era’ and is meant to replace AD or Anno Domini which is latin for ‘Year of Our Lord’.

Thanks for the clarification.

Being a post depression era Okie, schools always taught BC meant Before Christ and AD was simply After Death, tho we were taught AD meant Anno Domini.

Lately I seem to know a lot more than I actually know.

AD can’t be after death because that would leave a 30 year gap between BC and AD.

So AD is the year of His birth and BC are all the years before His birth.
