• PER357 The Death of the Messiah Jesus

    Pericope PER357 analyzes the death of Jesus on the cross at Golgotha, on Friday, April 1, AD 33, around 3 p.m., drawing on the four Gospel accounts. Matthew and Mark are very close; Luke reports the last words of Jesus and the reaction of the centurion; John, a direct witness, gives details of the events after his death and their prophetic fulfillment. The article includes a precise chronology of the three days and three nights according to the Jewish calendar.

    Luke 23.47 (King James Version) :
    Now when the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, Certainly this was a righteous man.
