JESUS DIED IN THE SPRING. The Lord Jesus died on the eve
of Passover. The Passover is celebrated
the 14th of the month of Nisan. In 2003, for example, this feast was from the
17th to the 24th of April.
The Gospel of John 18:39 says
that Pilate alluded to the Passover feast in the trial of the Lord Jesus.
Literally we read: "But you have a custom that I should release someone
to you at the Passover. Do you therefore want me to release to you the King of
the Jews?"
Very well. We take into
account that Jesus began his ministry when he was 30 years old. The Gospel of
Luke 3:23 says: "Jesus Himself began His ministry at about 30 years
old", and it has been supported in general terms that his
ministry lasted three and a half years. Some Bible scholars make this assertion
according to Daniel 9:27 that says:
"Then he shall confirm a covenant with many for one week; but
in the middle of the week he shall bring an end to sacrifice and offering".
Jesus could have started his
ministry at the age of 12 years old, for at this age he already knew more than
the members of the Sanhedrin, but the law established that a priest could not
pursue his ministry before turning thirty years old. Numbers 4:3 says:
"from thirty years old and above, even to fifty years old..." If
Jesus started his ministry at 30 years of age and died in April (on the eve of
Passover), then Jesus started his ministry at the end of September or the
beginning of October. And 30 years before, when he was born, it was also the
end of September or the beginning of October, that is fall, not winter.
