Herod’s 1 B.C. Death Demonstrated

[Editor’s note: This is a immensely learned and valuable study proving beyond contradiction that Herod died in 1 B.C.  However, we do disagree with the author’s dating the birth of Christ to September 26, 2 B.C., as it is based upon certain unproved assumptions and contradicts Luke’s gospel, which says Jesus had not turned 30 at his baptism in early November, A.D. 29. We also feel that the evidence favors placing Herod’s death closer to Passover in March, 1 B.C., rather than Jan. 26th as proposed by the author. Even so, the author’s contribution to establishing the true year of Herod’s death is invaluable.  Our thanks to Gerard Gertoux for allowing us to post it here.] Читать далее
