    How old was Jesus Christ when he died?

    Question #76611. Asked by amerikanu.

    zbeckabee

    34-35 years of age.


    Scripture does not tell us how old Yeshua – Jesus – was when He died. Yet, scripture does give us enough information to help us piece it together. Historians have given us information. The gospel writers give us His age when He started His ministry and provide clues as to how long His ministry lasted. When we add all of the pieces together we find that Jesus was 34 to 35 years old.

    Personally, I've always heard he was age 33.

    This is a time line I found:

    Timeline
    6-4 BC • Birth of Jesus Christ
    5-4 BC • Escape to Egypt. Slaughter of children.
    4 BC • Herod the Great dies (spring).
    7-8 AD • Jesus visits Jerusalem as a child.
    12 AD • Augustus makes Tiberius co-regent.
    14 AD • Tiberius becomes Caesar (August 19th).
    25 AD • Pilate & Caiaphas appointed to office.
    29 AD • Ministry of John the Baptist begins.
    29 AD • Christ's ministry begins.
    31 AD • Tiberius executes Sejanus (Oct 18th).
    33 AD • Jesus dies (Friday, April 3rd, 3:00pm).
    36 AD • Pilate dethroned. Caiaphas deposed.
    37 AD • Tiberius Caesar dies.

    Luke 3:23 says that Christ started his public ministry at about 30 years of age.

    Theologians have estimated his death age to be about 33.

    No one is exactly sure how old he was even in years alone. He probably lived for about 35 years:
