As already it has been told above, according to the Jewish calendar on Tuesday on March, 27th 31 AD there was Judaic Passover. In full conformity with it is and the computer version of the Jewish calendar under the name «Kaluach». The author of the given book has spent not one day for the purpose of check of data of this calendar, but they have appeared exact. For the author "arguments" of the faithless people for a long time are known, refusing to accept those or other data under a pretext: « It nobody knows ». Russian cosmonaut Alexei Leonov not without reason named 21st century « a century of ignorance ». It is clear, that it is possible not to believe separate scientists, or even many of them, but today I specify in one of the most authoritative organizations which only exist all over the world, National Aeronautic and Space Agency (in abbreviated form NASA) in the USA. Now before me lay astronomical tables NASA with data about phases of the Moon from 31 to 35 AD, with instructions of each of quarters of lunar month, and also with instructions of new moons, and on every month (from January till December) and, that the most important, with instructions of the exact times of all quarters and new moons (to within one minute). And so, these data (it is concrete for March of 31 AD) coincide with data of the Jewish calendar and confirm, that in 31 AD Judaic Passover was on March, 27th. The best acknowledgement cannot to imagine! The hourly Table of events of this day (since previous and finishing the following) is lower given:

Chronology of the Gospel According to St. Matthew
Order of using the below-mentioned Table: In the list of places from the gospel of St. Matthew the reader finds his interesting verse and the chapter. Near each of such places is indicated a date of which the given place of the Gospels concerns. For example, you read 13 verse of 3rd chapter where baptism of Jesus is described and wish to know, when it occurred. You find in the list of places Mat.3:13 where it is specified, that it was on January, 19th 29 AD. Or you read 1st verse of 15th chapter where the meeting of priests against Jesus is described: if you wish to know, when it occurred, you find in the list of places Mat.15:1 where it is specified, that it was on March, 28th 31 AD, and so on. In some places of the Gospels are specified not only day, but also and hour of event, see for example, Jn.1:39, Jn.19:14, Mat.27:45, 46, Mark15:25, etc. Generally speaking, events of Judaic Passover when has been crucified and has risen Jesus, it is impossible to understand in all completeness without these hours specified in all four Gospels. The disregard exact data (or the inability to use of them) has led to fallacies of followers of historical churches (and not only them).
These incorrect concepts have disseminated everywhere:
1. It is said that the Special entrance of Jesus to Jerusalem was on Sunday, however according to the Gospels it was on Thursday. 2. It is said that the Christ has been crucified on Friday, however detailed research of texts of the Bible specifies on Thursday. 3. It is said that Last Supper the Christ with Apostles was on Thursday, however it was in the night from Tuesday to Wednesday. 4. Time of resurrection of the Christ coincides only (He has really risen on Sunday), however date of resurrection remained the unknown (every year Easter was celebrated in different days and in different months). 5. Remained unknown not only day, but also year of death of the Christ. In the given work these blanks are filled, and there where in the Scripture it is a question of hours, the author also specifies not only day, but also hour of event.

*In this place of the English Bible name of Johoiakim is wrongly mixed with name of Jechonias and consequently is missed out. So, in Mat.1:11 it is readable: “And Josias begat Jechonias and his brethren, about the time they were carried away to Babylon”. However Josias was not father of Jechonias. Instead of it Josias was father of Johoiakim, 2Ki.23:34. Then Johoiakim became the father of Jeñhonias, 2Ki.24:6 (and his brothers). That is the text of 11th verse of 1st chapter of the Gospel according Matthew must be such: “And Josias begat Johoiakim. Johoiakim begat Jechonias and his brethren, about the time they were carried away to Babylon”
Some notes to Table 9:
1. Inthe Gospel according to John, 12:1-10 it is impossible to contain a similar episode from the Gospel according to Luke, 7:37-50 for following reasons: a) all knew the died and risen Lazarus who was with Jesus at supper, John12:2; sister of the Lazarus the Martha (she also is and sister of Mary) served on this supper, but, substituting the text from Luke7:37 «a sinner, sister of Mary» at first at all did not know where is Jesus. b) In the presence of the Lazarus any of those present at supper could not draw a conclusion, that Jesus did not know who Mary is, see Lk.7:39. Jesus knew who Mary is, see Jn.11:32, even before resurrection of the Lazarus. c) Besides, after supper with the Lazarus, see Jn.12:2, was the entrance of Jesus to Jerusalem, Jn.12:13 and the subsequent events connected with the crucifixion. But after an entertainment in Lk.7:36-50, the Lord «went throughout every city and village, preaching … Kingdom of God: and the twelve were with him». But for it Jesus any more did not have time. Besides, at that time Judas has already departed from them, betraying Jesus, Mat.26:13-15 and apostles remains only eleven. CONCLUSION: at Luke 7:37-50 the episode which has occurred long before a similar episode at other Evangelists is described. At Luke the episode with Mary Magdalena, and at other Evangelists - with Mary, sister of the Lazarus is described, these are two different Mary. In the same house the tradition already has been as though observed! In the first case ointment was usual, Lk.7:37, 38, 46, but in last episode, before Last Supper, ointment was precious, Mat.26:7, Mark.14:3, John.12:3. Clearly, that two different cases mean: at various times and with different people, but in the same place.
2. InMat.28:16 the way 100 km (62 miles) long, not less, that is 2 days of walking is supposed. It is a question of the showing of Jesus in Galilee. It is described in John.21:1, and «the sea of Tiberias» this is sea of Galilee; words from Mat.28:18 «And Jesus came and spoke unto them» correspond to words from Jn.21:13 «Jesus then comes».
3. When wise men have come to worship to Jesus? **
On February, 15th 2nd before AD Mary with Joseph were in Jerusalem for fulfillment of a ceremonial with the Baby as since January, 7th (when the Baby was born) there have passed 40 days necessary under the law. This day (that is on February, 15th) wise men were at the Herod (see Mat.2:7) which has sent them home the Baby. And Mary with Joseph this day after ceremonial fulfillment has gone to a way back home, to Nazareth (see Lk.2:39). A way to home has been covered by them since 15th to 17th of February and on February, 17th they with the Baby already were at home. The same days and almost same by went to worship to the Baby wise men and the way to them was specified by a star which went before them, Mat.2:9. Wise men have entered into the house where there was the Baby, too on February, 17th, soon after Mary's returning with Joseph. The worship of the wise men was on February, 17th, and flight into Egypt was at night from 17th to February, 18th. Flight time - within nearby 42 days plus time for road back, home. Time of their returning depends with time of death of the Herod which has died about March, 31st of the same year (according to prophecy, that the star of born Jesus strikes princes of Moab, see Num.24:17). As at returning home Mary and Joseph had to bypass Judea (see Mat.2:22) that time for a way back has increased for 5 days, not less. Duration of all time of flight into Egypt (together with road there and back) does not exceed 72 days.

The reporting in two thousand year’s time
The knowledge of exact time of events allows restoring them in exact sequence. If to do without tables it will look as follows: on March, 23rd 30 AD John the Baptist has sent two of the disciples to ask Jesus “Are you he who is to come, or shall we look for another?” Luke.7:19. John's disciples arrived to Jesus on Monday on March, 27th 30 AD. Having learnt the answer of the Christ, they have come back just by last day lives of John the Baptist which has been killed on March, 31st 30 AD. Disciples have (have found out about death of John the Baptist this very day, and have gone back to inform Jesus. Their news could reach only for the fourth day from the date of John's death, i.e. by April, 3rd 30 AD. At night from 1st to 2nd of April, 30 AD the Lord has stayed all night long in a pray, Luke.6:12, and when began day i.e. on April, 2nd he has elected 12 apostles, Lk.6:13, Ìðê.6:7. The Lord has said the so-called uphill preaching on April, 2nd when has descended from a mount and stood on an even place (Luke.6:17-20 and further). On April, 2nd Apostles left for the first time for the preaching in nearby settlements and have stayed the night there. On April, 3rd there was a second day of their Christian message, and to evening of this day they have already come back to Jesus, Luke.9:10-12. The miracle with five breads and two fishes was, thus, on April, 3rd 30 AD, Luke.9:13. John's disciples were witnesses of this miracle also: they participated in this dinner when have come to inform Jesus of death of John the Baptist.

Notes: *given the fragment of 16th head totals 25 verses. In the Table event time only the first of these verses, in this case 16th, usually is indicated. It is made with a view of a practicality: the matter is that in the book of Acts of Apostles is more than 1000 verses (!) and consequently the table with such considerable quantity of points would be rather bulky. However it is necessary to mean, that the author considers time of all of 1006 verses entering into the book of Acts. ** As the first conversation of apostle Paul to Jews occurred in March it was impossible to appoint the best day for the second conversation rather than on March, 17th: it was the second day of feast Purim in which many Jews from different places were went on a feast. They could devote the first day of a feast bodily for dialogue in a synagogue while in the second could visit and Paul for conversation with him.
14. Chronology of the General Epistle of James.
Chronology of the Epistle of James can be defined only after dating of Epistle of Paul to the Galatians, in connection with the doctrine of the specified apostles, both about faith, and about affairs.
To the Chronology of the Epistle to Galatians: in June of 54 AD apostle Paul was in Antioch (see the Table of Acts of apostles, point 63) where at that time he could meet with apostle Peter, Gal.2:11. In the Epistle to Galatians, 1:2 the brothers who were present at a writing of the Epistle to Galatians are mentioned. If them was no more than two they would be mentioned by names, but them was even more than three: see for example Acts.19:22, 20:4. Being in Greece, Apostle Paul had time (3 months) for the Epistle writing to Galatians, see Acts.20:3. It was since November 57 till February 58 AD; see in the Table of Acts point 71. The author regards the Epistle writing to Galatians was in January 58 AD. Being far from the Galatians’ country and having heard, that Galatians "have became obsessed with the law”, Paul has decided to write them the Epistle. It could be received by Galatians not earlier than the end of March 58 AD. The message was the big blow for judaic of Christians and since April 58 AD have started to be spread rumors about this Epistle of Paul, reached and to Jerusalem “jewish” Christians. The news about this Epistle could reach Jerusalem in May 58 AD, by day of the Pentecost. From now on the apostle to James they have started to come with strenuously requests «to give the appropriate answer». Certainly, Apostle James did not begin to write the Epistle immediately: in 59th year he only contemplated over the Epistle and was going to make it. But about 60 AD it already becomes possible. The apostle James has been killed by Jews during Passover commemorating, on April, 14th 63 AD. We date the Epistle of the apostle of James 62nd year AD.
15. Dating of the First Epistle General of Apostle Peter.
In 1Pet.4:12 - 14 “the fiery trial “is mentioned. These words have been written in connection with a fire in Rome of which Nero has accused Christians. Many thousand from them have thus suffered. The fire has begun on July, 19th 64 AD and proceeded till the morning on July, 26th. Here it is important to understand time when persecutions of Christians have begun. This time can be found out from the 2nd Epistle to Timothy to whom Paul has written: « Do your best to come before winter », 2Tim.4:21. To come to Apostle Paul, Timothy needed to overcome a way in length more than 1300 kilometers (i.e. 800 miles from Ephesus to Rome). From them of 900 km (i.e. 560 miles) by sea for what needed 18 days. So many were required and on overland road, that is 36 days in total. However even 36 days of others were necessary, that the Epistle of Paul has come to Timothy from Rome in Ephesus. So, Apostle Paul should write 2nd Epistle to Timothy 72 days prior to winter, at least. It means, that Paul wrote it practically on October, 1st 64 AD! And by this time as execution lion's month against Christians were already applied, see 2Tim.4:17. The news about the beginning of persecutions and executions of Christians in Rome could reach Jerusalem (where there was in that time apostle Peter) in one and a half month.
