<\/a><\/p>\nFor those of you who do not read Biblical Archaeology Review, I have an article in the Nov.\/Dec. 2017 issue on Dionysius Exeguus and how we got our current calendar. He\u2019s the one who saddled us with our current calendar, by miscalculating the date of Jesus\u2019 birth, which is somewhere between 2-6 B.C. The problem actually affected all of us in the West because Bede of Durham in the Middle Ages accepted Dionysius\u2019 chronology, and put it in his Ecclesiastical History of England, and thereafter, it\u2019s how we calculated what year it was A.D. Check out the article itself. BW3<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
