It represents a form of courtship , consisting of social activities carried out by the couple, either alone or with others. The protocols and practices of dating, and the terms used to describe it, vary considerably from society to society and over time. While the term has several meanings, the most frequent usage refers to two people exploring whether they are romantically or sexually compatible by participating in dates with the other. With the use of modern technology, people can date via telephone or computer or arrange to meet in person.

Chronological dating - Wikipedia
Through the centuries , Bible students and scholars alike have been trying to establish dates for the events described in the Bible so that a link can be made to the second coming of Jesus and the Battle of Armageddon. As the result, some have focused on the first destruction of Jerusalem as a reference point, setting its date as BCE. How did they arrive at this date? However, popular historical dating sets the destruction of Jerusalem at or BCE. And this is what the argument is about. So, which if any of these dates is correct? It all depends on which source you consider to be the most correct, secular dating, Biblical chronology, or prophetic dating.

Easter , [nb 1] also called Pascha Aramaic , Greek , Latin [nb 2] or Resurrection Sunday , [5] [6] is a Christian festival and holiday commemorating the resurrection of Jesus from the dead, described in the New Testament as having occurred on the third day after his burial following his crucifixion by the Romans at Calvary c. Most Christians refer to the week before Easter as " Holy Week ", which contains the days of the Easter Triduum , including Maundy Thursday , commemorating the Maundy and Last Supper , [9] [10] as well as Good Friday , commemorating the crucifixion and death of Jesus. In Eastern Christianity , the season of Pascha begins on Pascha and ends with the coming of the 40th day, the Feast of the Ascension. Easter and the holidays that are related to it are moveable feasts which do not fall on a fixed date in the Gregorian or Julian calendars which follow only the cycle of the Sun; rather, its date is offset from the date of Passover and is therefore calculated based on a lunisolar calendar similar to the Hebrew calendar.
