***I’ll explain something to you. Mr. Fotheringham was a charlatan****

It seems that everyone who does not agree with your personal fringe interpretation is automatically a charlatan, from the Eastern Greek church, who should know what the bible really says, to the Western Latin church, and all protestants for the last 600 years. I will stick with the scriptures as translated by REAL Greek scholars.

But now, there is this. According to the US Dept of Naval Observatory, Nisan 14 began about 10 PM Thursday, which would be Friday night by Jewish counting, Friday the day to follow. 30 AD.

The book PAGAN FESTIVALS IN CHRISTIAN WORSHIP by E.E. FRANKE (Church of God 7th Day),
then tries to claim the crucifiction was then in AD 31.

They really play up this Navy Observatory account in order to prove their hobby horse.

Fotheringham’s chronology and that of the US NAVAL Observatory agree as to when the 14 Nisan was for 30 AD. It was FRIDAY.

Got a link?

I would recommend you not pay too much attention to what these folks do..........and say.

By the way........Hebrew (Jewish) counting of the days is, i.e. Thursday night/Friday (THE SIXTH DAY). That's why when you see the 14th of Nisan listed as Wednesday on a modern calendar you automatically know that the actual beginning of the 14th was on Tuesday evening at sunset. 6 hours of the 14th is on Tuesday and the remainder (18 hours is on Wednesday.
