With the new research coming out, as reported in the journal International Geology Review, scientists believe that Jesus was crucified on Friday April 3, 33 A.D.
The Gospel of Matthew mentions in Chapter 27 - “And when Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, he gave up his spirit. At that moment the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth shook, the rocks split and the tombs broke open.”
With the help of the details of crucifixion given in all Gospels and other books and the study of earthquake activities at the Dead Sea, located 13 miles from Jerusalem during the same period, researchers have come out with this date as most appropriate.
