| Apr 27, 2022 at 14:58 | comment | added | Andrew Shanks | Sorry, but I think you have messed up. But don't worry, I mess up all the time. (I do try to correct my mistakes on stack exchange as soon as I can.) | |
| Apr 27, 2022 at 14:42 | comment | added | Andrew Shanks | Which is what I expected because Colin Humphreys helpfully added a table of lunar eclipses visible from Jerusalem, its on the internet here: researchgate.net/figure/…. | |
| Apr 27, 2022 at 14:33 | comment | added | Andrew Shanks | OK, I have used Javascript Lunar Eclipse Explorer on the NASA website. I selected for Jerusalem for the 1st century CE. And for Total Eclipse.. and, sorry, but April 14 for 32 AD is not there at all. Please tell me where you got that from. The NASA site tells me it was not visible from Jerusalem. | |

| Apr 27, 2022 at 11:11 | comment | added | user22542 | There was a total lunar eclipse on April 14, 32 AD (lunar saros 61 - crucifixion date). There was a related eclipse on April 3, 33 AD (one lunar year later - paralleling when "second passover" was initiated by God - after "one lunar year" (lunar saros 71 - the second passover parallel). Saros series are related to each other also by Metonic cycles (19 solar years). EXACTLY 38 solar years after April 14, 32 AD (following 2 complete Metonic cycles) the "Siege of Jerusalem" began on the day of a lunar eclipse - ALSO on April 14, 70 AD (lunar saros 81). This is known as a "Metonic eclipse series". | |
| Apr 27, 2022 at 10:53 | comment | added | user22542 | Hi Andrew. I would be happy to show you the eclipse evidence, but SE does not allow "discussions" etc. in the comments. If you would like to suggest another means of contact for discussion, I am absolutely open to that. As to your "meaningless" statement about what a "lunar year" is - it is precisely 354.37 days by definition. Here is a link with further information - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eclipse_cycle | |
| Apr 25, 2022 at 18:24 | comment | added | Andrew Shanks | @user22542 - What do you mean by "lunar year" - it is a completely meaningless concept. I suspect you are trying to deliberately mislead people on here with nonsense. | |
| Apr 25, 2022 at 17:01 | comment | added | Andrew Shanks | @user22542 - There is substantial "eclipse" evidence (as signs) to support April 14, AD 32 as the true year of the crucifixion. Please can you say what this eclipse evidence is? Thanks | |
| Apr 11, 2022 at 16:06 | comment | added | user22542 | Yes, but it provides a very close approximation of the mathematical "average" between the lunar and solar years (which is 359.8 days). The day spacing in the prophetic texts seems to account for both - i.e. the current Hebrew calendar takes both into account. It is a lunisolar calendar. Because of that fact, the prophetic day spacing (1260, 1290, 1335 days) often fits precisely between Jewish feast days spaced 3 1/2 years apart. | |
| Apr 11, 2022 at 1:18 | comment | added | curiousdannii♦ | I've always felt the burden of proof should be on those proposing the idea of a 360 day "prophetic year". I've never seen any real evidence for it. | |

The same pattern of eclipses was also subsequently present as a "sign" given at the siege of Jerusalem on April 14, AD 70 - precisely two "Metonic" cycles later . | |
