The date of the Last Supper
REVISITED: New theory on date of Last Supper (Leesha McKenny, Cooma-Monaro Express). For some reason this article from 2011 just surfaced again on Google. I thought it as well to note it, in case people see it and wonder about it. The theory is hardly new, and wasn't in 2011: Sir Colin Humphreys, a physicist, has been advancing it since the mid-1980s and so far I don't know of any New Testament scholars who have been persuaded by it. I noted the book and some responses to it here and here back when it came out.
