The Crucifixion Was Not on Friday 39will usually be in September or October. Once we find thebeginning of the seventh month of the sacred year, then it iseasy to locate in the first month the Passover. The Passoveris always 164 days earlier than the beginning of the seventhmonth of God's Calendar.According to the calculations preserved by the Jews sincethe time of Moses, the new moon in the sky which determinedthe beginning of the seventh month (Tishri) in the year 1845occurred on "October 1, 15 hours 42 min. 43% sec. as computedby Lindo ... ," declares the Britannica.In simple language this means that the precise momentat which that new moon occurred was October 1, 15 hours and42 minutes and 43% seconds after the previous evening, whichbegan at 6:00 p.m. For calendar purposes an average day isalways considered to begin at 6:00p.m. But since the Romansand the world today reckon time from midnight to midnight,15 hours after 6:00p.m. would be only 9 hours after midnight!As people customarily use the Roman Calendar, we can writeour starting point as Wednesday, Oct. 1, 9th hour 42m 431JJs.This date (October 1) is accorrling to the modern GregorianCalendar.
