It is easy to be lulled back to sleep as God's patience waits one more day and the large contractions of last Fall have quieted down, but still I am reminded of what we know, much of which was revealed in 2017.

I generally hold to the crucifixion on Friday April 3rd, 33 AD. If true (and there is much debate), this would put his ascension 40 days after Sunday April 5th, 33 AD on Thursday, May 14th, 33 AD. May 14th is a very round number and in 2018 happens to be Israel's 70th anniversary.
