2018 (Current Year) less estimated birth year of Christ at 4 BC is 2022 years. Averaging 25 years per generation, there would have been about 81 generations including Jesus’s own. At an average of 20 years per generation, there would have been 101 generations since Jesus’s birth, including his own.
In what seems to be rare physical evidence of crucifixion, the method used to kill Jesus Christ according to the Bible, scientists say wounds found on the heel of a man buried some 2,000 years ago in northern Italy suggest he was nailed to a wooden cross before he died .
