Dear Michael and Calendar People,
Could you please list down some of those who have tried using Josephus’ years?
Do you know why they failed? Do you know why they say that Josephus cannot contribute much? Because they were using a lunisolar calendar like what the Jews are using these days. Try using a purely lunar calendar and you might get it right.
The following are what I got:
2069 BC – Foundation of the city of Jerusalem
1522 BC – Exodus of the Israelites from Egypt
1100 BC – start of King David’s reign
1058 BC – Start of building of house of the Lord
637 BC – Fall of Jerusalem to the
Babylonians
33 BC – Birth of Jesus Christ (May 23)
1 BC – Death of Jesus Christ (August 17)
AD 44 – Fall of Jerusalem to the Romans
You may see the complete timeline that I made from the birth of Abraham to the fall of Jerusalem to the Romans in http://aristean.org/wp082.htm .
