The alliance with the multitude of Jews ended on 1st Tishri 36 CE (Tuesday 9 October) marked by the conversion of the centurion Cornelius (Ac 10:30).

Chronological details are frequent in the Bible and those concerning the conversion of Cornelius may be used to verify the date of the 1st Tishri 36 CE: Now in Caesarea there was a certain man named Cornelius, an army officer of the Italian band, as it was called, a devout man and one fearing God together with all his household, and he made many gifts of mercy to the people and made supplication to God continually. Just about the 9th hour of the day he saw plainly in a vision an angel of God come in to him and say to him: Cornelius! (...) Cornelius said: 4 days ago counting from this hour I was praying in my house at the 9th hour, when, look! a man in bright raiment stood before me and said: Cornelius, your prayer has been favourably heard and your gifts of mercy have been remembered before God (Ac 10:1-3,30). As the 1st Tishri 36 CE matches Tuesday 9 October 36 CE, the day of the conversion of Cornelius, the 4th day earlier (not 3rd)232 when this officer was praying had to be a Saturday (the Sabbath) at the hour of prayer (Ac 3:1).
