mLine 8:
Line 8: − The chronology of the Ethiopian church follows the Era of [[Incarnation]] that is it dates from our Lord's birth; there is a difference of 7 or 8 years between the western and Ethiopian systems. Because the Ethiopian church holds that our Lord was born 5500 years after the creation of the world this gives the 7 or 8 years difference between the [[Gregorian Calendar|Gregorian]] and Ethiopian Chronologies.<ref>[http://www.ethiopianorthodox.org/english/calendar.html , " RELIGIOUS HOLIDAYS AND CALENDAR "]</ref> [[Bible]] scholars believe [[King Herod]] died in 4 BC which means Christ's birth occurred between 6 BC and 4 BC. This means the Ethiopian Calendar is probably closer to the correct year of [[Jesus]]'s birth than the Gregorian Calendar in use in most of the world.<ref>[https://catholicexchange.com/was-jesus-born-in-4-bc/ CE editors, “ Was Jesus Born in 4 BC?”]</ref><ref>Hope of Israel Ministries, “ Did Herod the "Great" Really Die In 4 B.C.? “ [https://www.hope-of-israel.org/herodsdeath.html]</ref>
