We are providing extra-biblical information when we provide dates based on the Julian and Gregorian calendars. Is this to be avoided? As much as I would like to provide only Biblical reckoning, the purpose of an encyclopedia or a wiki is to provide accurate information so that the reader can better understand the text.

When we provide historical context, for instance, we are providing things like location on a map and approximate dates for what happened. Sometimes these things cannot be found in the text.

That being said, I will refrain from attempting any theories as to "how" God did anything. I will stick to God's word for any clues to enlighten our readers.
