Mazur, Roman (Wyższe Seminaria Duchowne Towarzystwa Salezjańskiego, 2020)
The article combines grammar data with historical facts in the matter of Roman censuses. Presence of the define article before the adjective ἀπογραφή suggests a new perspective. Data from Roman Egypt show an acceptable basis, known through grammar, and allow more precise meaning of ἡγεμονεύοντος from Lk 2.2. The census from the time of Jesus' birth can therefore be understood as earlier than that of Quirinius. GDPR mentioned here concerns data protection, but also suggests that by combining data from both censuses in two regions of the Roman Empire, should indicate a reliable chronological order.
