Locating the True Sabbath
One of the most complete word pictures of resurrection events is found in the Gospel of Luke, and here we read the fourth reference to the first day of the week. “This man (Joseph of Arimathaea) went unto Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. And he took it down, and wrapped it in linen, and laid it in a sepulchre that was hewn in stone, wherein never man before was laid. And that day was the preparation, and the sabbath drew on” (Luke 23:52–54).
Before reading further, let us carefully examine the inspired description of this crucifixion day. The vast Christian majority agrees that these events transpired on the day we now call Good Friday. Here it is called the “preparation” day, because it was a time for making special arrangements for the approaching Sabbath. In fact, the text states very simply “the sabbath drew on.” This means that it was coming up next.
What else happened on that day Jesus died? “And the women also, which came with him from Galilee, followed after, and beheld the sepulchre, and how his body was laid. And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; and rested the sabbath day according to the commandment” (Verses 55, 56).
During the rest of that fateful Friday, the devoted women bought the anointing materials and made further preparation for their Sunday morning visit to the tomb. Then, as the Sabbath was ushered in at sunset, they “rested the sabbath day according to the commandment.” This identifies that holy day as the specific weekly Sabbath of the Ten Commandments and not the Passover or some other feast-sabbath that could have fallen on any day of the week.

What a completely imbecilic and hypocritical LIE!
Barny Fife states that a picture or event of Jesus’ <resurrection> is found in Luke 23:52:54. But he continues to explain <<let us carefully examine the inspired description of this crucifixion day>>; <<What else happened on that day Jesus died?>>; <<that fateful Friday>>.
Are <resurrection events found> in Luke 23:52-54, or does Luke 23:52-54 <<describe what happened on that day – this crucifixion day - Jesus died>>?
Is this an accidental blunder, or is this standard methodology of SUNDAY worship apologetics TO DECEIVE?! This is no imbecilic and hypocritical LIE, it is most, too clever, false Christian, con-art !
