Moses instituted Passover just before the 10th Plague in Egypt on Abib(Nisan) 14, 1513 BCE(Exodus 12:17-20, 24-27). The death of Jesus Christ took place on the Passover Day, Nisan 14, 33 C.E. according to the Jewish calendar(Matthew 26:2; John 13:1-3; Exodus 12:1-6; 13:4), which would have been over 1500 years later.
-----------------------
Scholars point out that the events described in the synoptic gospels (Matthew, Mark and Luke) could have been accomplished in a few weeks. There is no mention of the Passover from the beginning of his mission until the final journey to Jerusalem and for these reasons they believe that his entire mission appears to have taken no more than a year.
On the other hand, John's Gospel, by its references to the Passover (John 2:13, 6:4, 11:55, 12:1, 13:1), indicates that, for its author, the mission of Jesus lasted three years.
The time span between the death of King David, and the death of Jesus was about 1000 years (between 990 and 1010 years).
About 300 years.
Christianity became the official Roman religion in 380 AD. We don't know the exact date of the death of Jesus, so using the commonly used date of 33 AD for his death, it would be 347 years between Jesus" death and the making of Christianity the official religion.
Passover
Jews still celebrate Passover to this day.
A:In the synoptic gospels - yes. When Jesus and the disciples celebrated the Passover feast, this would become the Christian Last Supper. After the supper was finished, they sang a hymn (Mark 14:26), as was the practice at the end of the Passover meal. For theological reasons, John's Gospel places the crucifixion on the day of preparation for the Passover - the day before. Jesus did not celebrate the Passover.
It depends on when you believe the Exodus to have happened and when you believe that the Last Supper took place. Historians are not certain if either event took place, let alone when they took place. However, most people place roughly 1300 years between the Exodus and the Last Supper.
Twelve years old. (Luke 2.42)
A:New Testament scholars have noted that the events described in the synoptic gospels appear to have occurred in the space of less than a year and that the only time Jesus went to Jerusalem, the Passover feast was the evening prior to his crucifixion. On the other hand, John's Gospel clearly spaces the mission of Jesus over three years and in this gospel his third Passover occurred on the evening following his crucifixion.Another Answer:Others have said there were 4 Passovers from the beginning of His ministry to His Crucifixion on Passover Day (Jewish tradition had days beginning at sunset with the night portion coming first). Sir Isacc Newton was a believer in four.If His ministry began in the Autumn of His 30th year - some date this to 27 AD, then the first Passover would come about 5 months into His Ministry which lasted 3 1/2 years. He died at the 4th Passover in 31 AD as our Passover Lamb.
it was 29 years
Some biblical students point to Jesus dying late on Passover Wednesday, 25 April 31 AD. Generally speaking then, that is about 2000 years ago.
The mission of Jesus that is described in the synoptic gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke) appears to have lasted less than one year. In these accounts, Jesus only went to Jerusalem for the Passover on one fateful occasion.In John's Gospel, Jesus went to Jerusalem for the Passover at least three times, so in this account his mission certainly lasted at least three years.
