I have been trying to find any indication of the ages of the first century high priests. Some suggest Annas was 37 when he took office in 6CE:

http://www.biblebelievers.org.au/nl313.htm (see under "Facts")
http://jewishencyclopedia.com/view.jsp?artid=1554&letter=A&search=Annas
Is this claim substantiable?
This website suggests that Annas was alive until the revolt of 66 CE: http://latter-rain.com/ltrain/annas.htm. Is that possible/probable?
