Well, The jews are still looking for a Messiah, however if you mean by the New Testament standard I believe they designate a generation as around 25 years.
That would be the Jewish Calendar. Subtract the current civilian year of 2011 from the current Jewish year of 5770 and you get the biblical date from the "creation" of Adam which was 3760 years before the birth of Christ, the second "Adam".
Before Christ= BC After Christ= AD With that being stated, Jesus was born in Year 0
BC: Before Christ AD: Anno Domini (After Christ/Latin) BC stands for "Before Christ", AD stands for "Anno Domini" which is medieval latin for "in the year of (the) Lord" - not After Death! Interestingly, there was no year zero - the calendar goes straight from 1 BC to 1 AD.
B.C as in 'years', means "Before Christ" and A.D. means "anno Domini", which is latin for "Year of our Lord". It is due to the "Gregorian Calendar" we use today. So, if Jesus was perceived to have been born in year 1, we are currently 2008 years later, hence 2008 A.D. Also note that time B.C. (Before Christ) runs backwards from the perceived birth of Christ, so the year before he was born was 1 B.C. ten years before is 10 B.C., a thousand years 1000 B.C. and so on.
AD stands for Anno Domini, which is Latin for "in the year of our Lord." It is used to label years in the Gregorian calendar that come after the birth of Jesus Christ. BCE stands for Before Common Era, which is a secular equivalent to BC (Before Christ). It is used to label years prior to the birth of Jesus Christ.

Before Christ
On a Christian calendar, it's "before Christ".
The modern-day Jewish calendar has a leap year periodically that adds an extra month, so the Passover is a month after Christians recognize the day of Jesus' death in 2016. The memorial of Christ's death is celebrated by Christians according to the way the calendar was back in Jesus' day, and that he died on the first full moon after the Spring Equinox on Nisan 14.In 2016, the Spring Equinox is March 20, and the first full moon is the 23rd. That is why the 2016 Memorial of Jesus Christ's death is on March 23 and that would have been Nisan 14 back before 70 CE. The Jewish, however, start celebrating the Passover on April 22 in 2016, which is Nisan 14-15 according to the modern calendar. The modern-day Jewish calendar was instituted some time after the death of Christ and after the destruction of the temple.

the jewish calendar began many centuries before before the Gregorian Calendar. Jewish answer The Jewish calendar consists of twelve lunar months. It also keeps in step with the solar year, by adding a thirteenth lunar leap-month seven times every nineteen years. The Gregorian calendar, which sticks to the solar year, ignores the lunar months and does not attempt to keep in step with them.
