How old was Jesus when he was crucified? How old was his mother Mary?

Answer 1

he was around 33-37

Answer 2

Jesus was about 30 to 32 plus or minus a year.

We are never told how old his mother was.

We only know that when Jesus was born she was still a virgin. She could have been 13 or 18 or 21. Anyone who claims to know for sure is guessing.

I've heard this preacher say, "God told me she was 13", and another preacher has said, "God told me she was 16", etc.

God didn't tell them all a different age.

Jesus began his ministry when he was about 30 years of age. The original language uses words which mean about but not quite 30, so he was still 29 by the Jewish way of counting.

Jewish people count the age of someone as being one year old the minute they are born. So one year to the day after being born they are called two years old.

So by the we figure it in the USA, Jesus was 28 years old when he began to teach. Close to being 29, but not quite.

There are many who teach that Jesus had a three year long ministry, others who teach that his ministry was more like about fifteen months.

Answer 3

Jesus was 33 when he was crucified, but the Bible does not say how old Mary was when she gave Jesus a birth.

Answer 4

According to Hebrew tradition of the time, Mary would've become a wife at 12ish. If the birth truely was immaculate, then she could've been a mother right out of the gate. Scholars tend to theorize that she was either 13 or 14 when she gave birth.

Jesus died at 33, so this would make mary 45-47 years old (45 because her birth month might've been later in the year).

Answer 5

Jesus was about 30 when he was baptized and began his public preaching. In John's gospel when he is arguing with authorities they say he was not yet fifty years old so could hardly have seen Abraham. Since there seems to be three Passover Festivals referenced in John's Gospel before Jesus was crucified it has been understood that Jesus was probably about 33 years of age. Because Jewish culture had girls betroth and marry in early adolescence Jesus' mother was probably about 15 years older than Jesus when He was born.

Answer 6

Jesus was around 33. As it is unknown when his birthday was (we only celebrate on Christmas, most scholars think Jesus was born in spring) I can't get more specific. As Mary was young enough not to be married yet When Jesus was concieved, I would guess that she was around 14 to 16 years of age. Girls were not able to reproduce until their mid to late teen years at that time period, so I would guess more to 15 or 16. That means she was 16-17 when Jesus was born, and add 33, and that makes 49 or 50.

Answer 7

Jesus was 33 years old when he was crucified and his mother at the time was 48-49 years old.

Answer 8

I agree with darwin. He was 33 and Mary was 45. Thats how they did it back then. She was 12 when she had Jesus. Making her 11 at the time of pregnancy.

I agree with darwin for best answer. I gave him a thumbs up.

Other then that they think Jesus was around 32-33 based on dates and things they have found in the bible. Mary is a guess, but I would say she would have been 17+ years older.

*update because I had too*

Falutno what the hell are you talking about? Jesus wasnt born in 0 A.D., might come as a shock to you B.C doesnt stand for before christ. We know Jesus was born during the reign of Herold the Great. Herold the Great died 4 years before 0 A.D.

I dont know exactly when Jesus was born but I know for a damn fact it was at least 4 years before A.D. even started.

Answer 9

33

Answer 10

Jesus, as it says in the bible, was 33 years old; as for Mary, the bible says nothing of her age that I know of, but I would assume she was younger than 55 but older than 48 (it was not uncommon in those days for mothers to have babies what is now a juvenile age. This is because people's lifespans were approximately 55-60 years, and women, no matter what the era was, generally tended to live longer than men.

Answer 11

33
