KNOXVILLE, Tenn.(WV LT)-- Here's something you might find intriguing.
An investigation by The International geology Review magazine says it's narrowed down the day, the month and the year in which Christ was crucified.
A team of geologists studied historical, geological and biblical accounts including Matthew 27 which mentions an earthquake coincided with Christ's death.
"Jesus cried out again in a loud voice...he gave up his spirit....the
earth shook, the rocks split and the tombs broke open."
The geologists studied sediments close to the Dead Sea, 13 miles from Jerusalem to reach their conclusion that Christ was crucified
Friday, April 3, 33 AD.
