Most people don't realize that Jesus was not actually crucified . . .

@Setanta,

I don't know how far you have gone with playing all of those other video clips after the first one (I Will Survive) but the rest are pretty funny, too.

@peacecrusader888,
Does the Holy Bible say that Jesus was crucified in summer rather than in spring? Yes, it does. Eight times. The latest was last year, 2015.

I finished the study in 2003. In 2009, I read in the book of Desmond Stewart, "The Foreigner--A Search for the First Century Jesus", that Jesus was crucified in summer and not in spring. He argued that the fig tree is a summer-fruiting tree and as such, is not expected to bear fruit in early spring (Mark 11:12-14, 20-22). He also argued that a light garment like a linen cloth the young man had on would "hardly fit the overcoat chill of early spring" (Mark 14:50-52).

@peacecrusader888,
These puzzles are solved by my discovery that the Israelites were using two kinds of calendars during the time of Jesus: a lunar calendar and a lunisolar calendar.

The lunar calendar had the Passover Festival and the Feast of the Dedication in it. As such, the festivals were retrogressing through the seasons. During the crucifixion of Jesus, the Passover Festival was in the month of Av.

In the lunisolar calendar, on the other hand, New Year's Day (Tishri 1), Day of Atonement (Tishri 10), and the Feast of Tabernacles (Tishri 15-22) were fixed. Hence, they were held in the same season every year.

Hillel II reformed the Jewish calendar and merged these two calendars as one in AD 358/359 which form remains in use until today.

@peacecrusader888,
Yet the month of Nisan begins on the new moon nearest the spring equinox. The 14th day of that month is always a full moon. Cold enough in early morning hours for folks to be warming themselves around a fire.

The exact timing of the Passover, critical to modern Jews, is critical to Christians as well; it marks the time in Daniel's prophecy when the messiah will cause "sacrifice and gift offerings to cease". - Daniel 9:27

I said that I finished the study on the crucifixion of Jesus on 08-17 revealed by the spirit of Ama in 2003. Six years later, in 2009-07-18, I read that the author Desmond Stewart (1924-1981) in his book, "The Foreigner--A Search for the First Century Jesus", questioned that crucifixion must have happened during summer and not during spring, in the month of Av (July-August) and not in Nisan (March/April) when the annual Jewish Passover occurs. He argued that the fig tree is a summer-fruiting tree and as such, is not expected to bear fruit in early spring. He also argued that a light garment like a linen cloth the young man had on would "hardly fit the overcoat chill of early spring." The cursed fig tree is in Mark 11:12-14, 20-22 and Matthew 21:18-20. The young man in linen cloth is in Mark 14:50-52.

The cursing of the fig tree happened four days before Passover on 3760 Av 10 or 1 BC 07-28, a Friday. The account of the fig tree is in the Holy Bible on Matthew 21:18-20 and Mark 11:12-14, 20-22. It is also in Pasiong Mahal on pages 71-72 which says that the fig tree is like man. Man maybe sinful and unholy and the leaves are broad, but is useless. So man has to bear fruit of nice works. Otherwise, it will be cursed.

Jerusalem, at 750 m above sea level, is relatively cold on Nisan 14, a spring day. Can a young man at such an altitude and in the evening bear the coldness of the night just wearing a light garment?

These are the two evidences that I got for the author Desmond Stewart (1924-1981) in his book "The Foreigner--A Search for the First Century Jesus" in 2009.

Later, I will give the other six which I found that prove the crucifixion happened in summer, and not in spring, on 08-17 and not sometime March or April.
3. 2012 - The Donkey
4. 2013 - Kedron Valley
5. 2014 - Three Sabbaths (Acts 17:2)
6. 2014 - Fishing of Peter abd other disciples (John 21:2)
7. 2015 - Jesus girdled Himself with towel (John 13:4)
8. 2015 - Garments laid down on the path of Jesus (Matthew 21:8; Mark 11:8; Luke 19:36)

No doubt that is why folks were warming themselves by fire during the night.
Nevertheless, Jesus celebrated the Passover with his apostles just a few hours before his ordeal.

@neologist,
Don't you think that they were added to the Holy Bible later? Examples: John 18:18 - "And the servants and officers stood there, who had made a fire of coals; for it was cold: and they warmed themselves: and Peter stood with them, and warmed himself." Mark 11:13 - "for the time of figs was not yet." You must understand that the Romans fixed Passover (Christian Easter) in March/April in the Council of Nicea in 325 AD.

The spirit of Ama said that Jesus was crucified and died on 08-17, a summer day. I have proven this correct, that is why as 2 Corinthians 4:13 states: "I believed, and therefore have I spoken".

@peacecrusader888,
The tree should have had buds for the early crop. Since it had only leaves, it was worthless. Jesus' cursing of the tree represented his condemnation of the Jewish nation for failure to produce fine works.

@ehBeth,
And I am not the least bit surprised.

@neologist,
Jesus knew that when the fig tree is full of leaves, there is fruit in it. And it is summer. But not finding fruit in it, He cursed it. It is not cursing the Jewish nation but any man who is fruitless.

Holy rollers always have an excuse . . . arbitrarily and capriciously kill a fig tree? It was all symbolic . . . "symbolic" is one of their favorite dodges.

Of course.

@neologist,
What makes you think that you understand it better than someone else?

Just because Matthew supposedly said he spoke in parables?

I don't think you would understand it any less. How would you explain the story of the workers who came late being paid the same as those who worked a full day, for example?

Jesus was a cruciferous being.
