Hello everyone,

I'm hoping someone can help me with a question I have - when was Jesus crucified? I'm trying to understand more about the timeline of the Bible and Jesus' life, and I'm not sure when exactly he was crucified. I've been researching it, but I'm still not sure.

Jesus was crucified in the year 33 AD according to the majority of sources. This event is known as the Crucifixion of Jesus and is a central event in the Christian faith.

The Crucifixion of Jesus

The Crucifixion of Jesus is recorded in the four gospels of the New Testament. According to these accounts, Jesus was arrested in the Garden of Gethsemane and taken to the Sanhedrin, where he was condemned to death by the Jewish leaders. He was then turned over to the Roman authorities, who had him crucified.

The gospels differ in their accounts of the details of the crucifixion. In the Gospel of John, Jesus is taken to Golgotha, where he is crucified. In the other gospels, he is taken to a place called Calvary. The gospels also differ in the details of the events that took place after Jesus was nailed to the cross.

The Significance of the Crucifixion

The Crucifixion of Jesus is seen by Christians as the ultimate sacrifice for the sins of humanity. According to Christian belief, Jesus’ death and resurrection is the only way that people can be saved from sin and have eternal life.

The Debate Over the Date of the Crucifixion

There is some debate over the exact date of Jesus’ crucifixion. Most scholars agree that it took place in the year 33 AD, but there is disagreement over the exact date. Some scholars believe that it was April 7th, while others believe it was April 3rd.

Regardless of the exact date, the Crucifixion of Jesus is considered to be one of the most important events in human history. It marks the moment that Jesus died for the sins of humanity and rose again, offering salvation to all who believe in him.

Jesus was crucified on Good Friday, which is believed to have been April 3, 33 A.D. This day is marked as the day Jesus died for the sins of mankind. The Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John record that Jesus was arrested, tried, and sentenced by Pontius Pilate to be scourged, and finally crucified. The crucifixion occurred on the eve of the Jewish Passover, which was the annual celebration of the Exodus of the Israelites from Egypt. Jesus was taken to Golgotha in Jerusalem and was nailed to a cross, suffering for six hours before he died.

Jesus is believed to have been crucified on the Friday before Passover, around 33 AD. This is based on the Gospel of Mark, which states that Jesus was crucified the day after the Passover meal. This would have been the afternoon of the 14th day of the Jewish month of Nisan. Therefore, Jesus was likely crucified on April 7th, 33 AD.
