Question:

How old was Jesus when he died?

Luke 3:23 states that the Lord Jesus was 30 years old when he began His public ministry. In the parable of a man and his vineyard (Luke 13:6-9), the Lord is obviously referring to Himself in the person of the dresser.  The parable shows how the man sought fruit in the vineyard for three years.  Upon finding no fruit, the owner orders the fig tree to be cut down.  The dresser asks for another year to work the vineyard.  This speaks of the Lord’s ministry to Israel.  So…beginning his ministry at 30, and laboring about 3 years, this would make Jesus to be about 33 years old when He was crucified.
