Capitolium : Golgotha
Re: Capitolium : Golgotha
Jesus dies around 15 Nissan, which is a rough equivalent of 15 March. Is that right?
Re: Capitolium : Golgotha
Speaking of the days around 15 Nisan, apparently there were Jews at Caesar's funeral…

Re: Capitolium : Golgotha

Thanks for the links, ghost!
There was actually a fight over this in the Catholic Church and the keepers of John's tradition lost out to the consensus in Rome. This may be evidence that there was a Julian core to Christianity.

Re: Capitolium : Golgotha
You got your question answered! O crap, do I have egg on my face.

Re: Capitolium : Golgotha
Here is another thing that draws my attention… Isaiah, like Divus Iulius, also has an ascension, and in Mark 1:2-3 they repeat the verse Isaiah 40:3 where he says to prepare the way, in Mark supposedly for Jesus. It's the same Isaiah? Coincidence?
