No, Jewish people use B.C.E and C.E. B.C.E referrs to "before the common era" and C.E. referrs to the "common era".
ad=after death bc=before christ this is how i remember it
Some Muslims may use the terms BC (Before Christ) and AD (Anno Domini) in a historical context, but it's more common for Muslims to use AH (Anno Hegirae) which is based on the Islamic lunar calendar that begins with the migration of the Prophet Muhammad from Mecca to Medina in 622 CE.
That is not known as we don't know how many years of time there has been The BC and AD are a simple reference point, but we don't have a definite year BC that we can say time started from. Different culture have different beliefs in how long Earth has been here. Even now, some cultures use a different year than those using AD, like Jews and Muslims. BC and AD are not the basis of their calendars.
Dear, my question is regarding the terms BC and AD. When we are not sure of Jesus's birth and death, what does it make sense to use BC and AD?
The last date of BC was 1 BC, then the first date of AD was 1 AD, there was no zero.
Okay Will AD is older than BC because AD is very old not like BC
BC : before Christ AD : anno domino
58 years are between 30 BC and AD 30. The first thing you need to remember is that there is no year 0; the year before AD 1 is 1 BC. So the years between 30 BC and AD 30 are... 29 BC, 28 BC, 27 BC, ..., 2 BC, 1 BC, AD1, AD 2, ..., AD 27, AD 28, AD 29 29 BC through 1 BC is 29 years, and AD 1 through AD 29 is 29 years. 29 years + 29 years = 58 years
It isn't a question of closer to ad or bc, it IS bc. 3000bc would be -3000ad.
Nothing. There was no time period between BC and AD. 1 BC was followed by 1 AD. There was no year zero or any gap between BC and AD.
bc comes first because bc stands for before christ
Ad because bc started after
