A very good point. But I think there is a problem. I am not sure, but I think the Passover moves one day of the week every year. But if we come to a day of the week, maybe we can narrow down what year Christ could have been crucified. I am not 100% sure that Passover moves like that, but I think last year it was Thursday and Friday, and this year it was Friday and Saturday.
