B.C.E. means Before the Common Era.
Dates of the Jewish calendar are designated AM (Latin anno mundi, "the year of the world") and BCE. Wisely, many don't say B.C. anymore which meant Before Christ, because He's eternal. I guess they maybe meant it to be, 'before Emmanuel', the one who fully became the Christ after Emmanuel's death and resurrection; B.C.E. is now used. They could have said BE, Before Emmanuel, the physical person who was Christ in the flesh. See also A.D.
