  The use of CE and BCE  to identify dates
BCE stands for "Before the common era." It is eventually expected to replace BC, which means "Before Christ." BC and BCE are also identical in value.
Most theologians and religious historians believe that the approximate birth date of Yeshua of Nazareth (Jesus) was in the fall, sometime between 7 and 4 BCE, although we have seen estimates as late as 4 CE and as early as the second century BCE.
Although CE and BCE were originally used mainly within theological writings, the terms are gradually receiving greater usage in secular writing, the media, and in the culture generally.

With the death of Antigonus at the battle for Ipsus in 301 BCE Seleucus had secured for himself what was previously all of Antigonus' empire.
8 And also their gods, with their molten images, [and] with their goodly vessels of silver and of gold, shall he carry captive into Egypt; and he shall refrain some years from the king of the north.

 SV: orion Qumran habitation dates
I see no evidence in the published record which establishes or corroborates habitation at Qumran between the time of Alexander Jannaeus and 8 BCE, and again from 8 BCE to 60's CE.
(By 8 BCE I mean the year that deposit of coins was buried--if I have the year right.) Maybe even that isn't evidence of habitation at Qumran, though it is the type of thing an inhabitant would do.
One could speculate that whoever was there in 8 BCE might also have been there in 9 BCE and 7 BCE (I would consider the chances good that there were--but would not claim this as knowledge).

 Julian calendar - Metaweb   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
The first year of operation of the new calendar was 45 BCE, which was deemed to begin on January 1.
In 1883 the German chronologist Matzat proposed another ignoring year zero based on a passage in Dio Cassius that mentions a leap day in 41 BCE that was said to be contrary to Caesar's rule.
When using the Latin numbering system, which does not include zero, it is traditional to represent the years preceding 1 as " 1 BCE " etc. In this system the year 1 BCE is a leap year (likewise in the Proleptic Julian calendar).

 APPENDIX TWO: Research Proposal - King's Calendar
Since 701 BCE is acknowledged by all as Hezekiah's 14th year, this year was pivotal in reconstructing the data for the reigns of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah.
Pekah's death in 732 BCE presents a small problem for the King's Calendar, in that the synchronistic nature of the data is slightly astray.
Moreover, from 710 BCE to the end of Hezekiah's reign, 25 artificial years elapse, which may suggest that a transcription error has occurred (15 instead of 25yrs), or that a later amendment was made based upon the belief that Hezekiah was healed in 701 BCE.

Josephus dated the death of Herod in the year beginning Nisan 1 of 4 BCE, that is from March 28, 4 BCE to March 17, 3 BCE.
However, to move Herod's death to 1 BCE requires unnecessary co-regencies of Herod's sons and the use of accession reckoning, or not counting the first partial year.

BCE has an 80 percent interest in Bell Canada, with SBC Corporation holding the other 20 percent. Outside of the U.S. and Canada, BCE has indirect investments in affiliates that develop and operate telecommunications systems in various markets, primarily in Latin America and the Asia-Pacific region.
At the conclusion of a three-step process, BCE will directly own 80 percent of Teleglobe with the other 20 percent to be owned by Bell Canada, which is itself 80 percent owned by BCE. Consequently, BCE will control Teleglobe and through Teleglobe will control the Licensees.

Note on Dates: All dates in this FAQ are given using BCE and CE rather than BC and AD.
Some people take the use of BCE and CE in place of BC and AD as an anti-Christian gambit.
I don't take it that way; Jesus wasn't born in exactly 1 A.D., and saying BCE and CE makes it clear we are using the conventional year-numbering rather than counting years from the actual birth of Christ.
