You must have heard the clock sound but didn't know where the bell was. Because you confused 'hohras' - 'of the hour / daytime' for 'ho ouros' - 'the breeze'.
And your point is...?
I do not have the time to justify my understanding that the triumphant entry into Jerusalem on a colt occurred after the end of the Sabbath day during the twilight period of the first day of the week. If John states that it happened on the next day, then if it occurred during the twilight period of the next day then it did happen on the next day.
Um--you all forget about the special "High Sabbath" that begins the Feast of Unleavened Bread, no matter what day of the week it falls on because it is tied to Passover which can fall on any day of the week. The period of the Feast of Unleavened Bread is one week and the day that begins it is always a Sabbath (known as the "High Sabbath") because the first day is Passover. Jesus was crucified on Wednesday. Here is the timeline:
Tuesday night--> Jesus celebrated the Passover meal early with His disciples. He, no doubt celebrated it early, which was permissible, because He knew He would not be alive for the actual Passover celebration the next evening. Then He and His disciples went to pray in Gethsemane. He was arrested and brought before the Jews that night.
Wednesday morning--> He was taken before Pilate, was on the cross by 9 a.m. and had died by 3 p.m. They hastened the death of the other prisoners because the Passover would begin at sundown. The Passover Lamb was to be killed before the Passover would begin at sundown.
Wednesday night--> Jesus in the tomb – first night, High Sabbath begins at sundown, as the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread as well as Passover.
Thursday--> Jesus in the tomb – first day, continuation of the High Sabbath
Thursday night--> Jesus in the tomb, second night, end of High Sabbath at sundown
Friday--> Jesus in the tomb, second day, spices bought and prepared before the regular weekly Sabbath would begin at sundown, but there was no time to anoint Him.
Friday night--> Jesus in the tomb, third night, regular weekly Sabbath begins at sundown
Saturday --> Jesus in the tomb third day, regular weekly Sabbath
Saturday Night --> Jesus must have been raised before sundown on Saturday--the end of the weekly Sabbath and the beginning of a new night. The Feast of First Fruits begins at sundown. The women were going to anoint Jesus at the tomb the next morning. Interestingly, work was permitted on the Feast of First Fruits. But He was not there--He had risen--He was and is the first of the First Fruits.
Agreed: <<the special "High Sabbath" that begins the Feast of Unleavened Bread, no matter what day of the week it falls on because it is tied to Passover which can fall on any day of the week. The period of the Feast of Unleavened Bread is one week…>>
Agreed: <<and the day that begins it --the Feast of Unleavened Bread-- is always a Sabbath (known as the "High Sabbath") because the first day is Passover.>>
Just to make sure: The day that begins the Feast-week of Unleavened Bread, was always “the sabbath”—“sabbath” of the passover, <known as the "High Sabbath" of the seven days of unleavened bread eaten>--NOT WHEN “THEY HAD KILLED the passover”, nor therefore “the Sabbath of the week” Matthew 28:1.
Disagreed: <<Jesus was crucified on Wednesday.>>
Here is the timeline:
Agreed: Taking <early> to mean <early> of night, <<Jesus celebrated…> NOT <…the Passover meal…>, but the Lord’s Supper meal, <…early with His disciples. He, no doubt celebrated it early [being “evening”], which was permissible, because He knew He would not be alive for the actual Passover celebration the next evening. Then He and His disciples went to pray in Gethsemane. He was arrested and brought before the Jews that night.>>
In other words, Jesus celebrated the Lord’s Supper of bread and wine “an hour later” than sunset in the “evening” of the early night Luke 22:14 Mark 14:17 Matthew 26:20 John 13:30 1Corinthians 11:23 with His disciples. <<He, no doubt celebrated it as soon as was permissible, because He knew He would not be alive for the actual Passover celebration of the first and Feast night the next evening. Then He and His disciples went to pray in Gethsemane. He was arrested and brought before the Jews that night>>—1Corinthians 11:23! Agreed so far!
Disagreed: <<Wednesday morning-->> It was Thursday morning. See the Texts of the four Gospels in full agreement!
Agreed: <<He was taken before Pilate, was on the cross by 9 a.m. and had died by 3 p.m.>>
Disagreed: <<They hastened the death of the other prisoners because the Passover would begin at sundown.>> HERE is the GREAT OMISSION!
Agreed: <<The Passover Lamb was to be killed before the Passover would begin at sundown.>> Of course! How not for heaven’s sake! Because you are obliged to FILL IN THE TEXT AS IS COMPLETELY, HERE, conspicuous in its absence Mark 15:42 Matthew 27:57 Luke 23:50 John 19:31,38.
Disagreed: <<Wednesday night-->>. Words cannot be found where there is nothing to say unless it’s nonsense said. But Thursday night beginning of the Sixth Day, yes!
Like the grave and the clothing were prophetically predestined to be “PREPARED”, so was the time and day “NIGHT AND DAY” “THAT DAY BONE-ESSENTIAL DAY” of the Passover of Yahweh, prophetically predestined and “PREPARED” FOR “THIS NIGHT (of Abib 15) THAT NIGHT (of Abib 13)” in Egypt.
Disagreed: <<Jesus in the tomb – first night, High Sabbath begins at sundown, as the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread as well as Passover.>> Jesus’ body was still “PREPARED FOR TO BE BURIED .. AT THE FIRST NIGHT” of ulb. John 19:39 on, Mark 15:42 on, Matthew 27:57 on, Luke 23:54 on.
Disagreed: <<Thursday-->> But Friday, “the Preparation which is the Fore-Sabbath”, “That Day great day of sabbath of” the Passover of Yahweh, yes!
end of High sabbath at sundown
Agreed then: <<Jesus in the tomb – first day [of ulb], continuation of the High Sabbath>> “That Day The Preparation the Sabbath nearing” Luke 23:54 John 19:42;
Disagreed: <<Thursday night--> Jesus in the tomb, second night, end of High Sabbath at sundown>>.
Friday night, after the <High sabbath at sundown> Jesus was only taken off from the cross and his body prepared for burial,<Thursday night--> -- what was <in the tomb> already!
After the <end of High Sabbath at sundown>, “the women began to rest the Sabbath..." -- the third of the "three nights" and ONLY night <in the tomb>.
“The women began to rest the Sabbath according to the (Fourth) Commandment” and “Sabbath OF THE WEEK” Luke 23:56b Matthew 28:1.
THEREFORE
Also agreed: <<Friday--> Jesus in the tomb, second day, spices …. prepared before the regular weekly Sabbath would begin at sundown, but there was no time to anoint Him.>> Fully agreed EXCEPT for the word… <bought>! Because spices were “bought”, “after the Sabbath had gone through” on Saturday night Mark 16:1, naturally.
THEREFORE
Also agreed: <<Friday night--> Jesus in the tomb, third night, regular weekly Sabbath begins at sundown>>. Naturally! Incontrovertibly!
Agreed: <<Saturday --> Jesus in the tomb third day, regular weekly Sabbath>>. AMEN
Agreed: <<Saturday Night --> Jesus must have been raised before sundown on Saturday--the end of the weekly
Sabbath…>> Halleluiah
Disagreed: <<…and the beginning of a new night.>> <Before sundown on Saturday> is before <the beginning of a new night> and is still <on Saturday>.
The rest has been replied to.
No man. You DO NOT, HAVE, THE ABILITY TO, BECAUSE YOU DO NOT HAVE, THE SCRIPTURES TO.
Lady Crosstalk,
re: "Some of the source of confusion is that the Roman Julian calendar and later Gregorian calendar reckoned days to begin and end at midnight. "
And it appears you are using a midnight to midnight calendar day when you should be using a sunset to sunset calendar day.
The Passover was the "type". It was a "shadow of things to come". Jesus was the "Anti-type" and if you step into the shadow of the Passover and start following it, you will eventually bump your head at the Cross.Easy to be curt without Scripture to back you up.
SCRIPTURE remains: Jesus was Crucified on Abib 14 starting "evening" in Mark 14:12,17 Matthew 26:17,20 Luke 22:7,14 John 13:1,30 1Corinthians 11:23 -- "BEFORE THE FEAST". You are NOT free to make up your own opinions or your own facts.
SCRIPTURE remains: Jesus was Buried on Abib 15 "the Feast", "That Day great-day-of-sabbath-of" the PASSOVER, starting "evening" "AT THE FIRST NIGHT" with Joseph in Mark 15:42 Matthew 27:57 Luke 23:50 John 19:31-38,39. You are NOT free to make up your own opinions or your own facts.
SCRIPTURE remains: Jesus was RAISED on Abib 16 "the third day.." "The True Witness the Beginning and END of the creation of God" "..said He would rise on", "THE SABBATH BEFORE the First Day of the week" Matthew 27:62-29:4 starting "evening" when "the women started to rest the Sabbath" Luke 23:56b. You are NOT free to make up your own opinions or your own facts.
You have <missed> "the WHOLE DAY BONE-ESSENTIAL-DAY" "THE DAY OF THE LORD" "THE LORD'S DAY" "the day The Seventh Day SABBATH OF THE LORD GOD".
God's commandments are only grievous to those who don't love Him.My dear brother in Jesus Christ, I am deeply sorry for you, not because you had the courage to suffer for your conviction, but because you landed in the cruel claws of Seventh day Adventism.
When was the Passover? Nisan, right?the Scriptures John 13:1,30; 18:28; 19:14 to 19:30 Luke 22:7-23:49 Mark 14:12-15:41 Matthew 26:17-27:56 teach that Jesus was delivered and led out to be crucified when "it was The Preparation Day OF THE PASSOVER", and that He was crucified and died "the ninth hour" 3 PM three hours before sunset on the Fifth Day of the week Thursday when "That Day great day of sabbath" OF THE PASSOVER, the Sixth Day of the week, was drawing <close> or was nearing. NOT BURIED ALSO. O God, open their eyes so that they may SEE?
When was the Passover? Nisan, right?
The Passover was the "type". It was a "shadow of things to come". Jesus was the "Anti-type" and if you step into the shadow of the Passover and start following it, you will eventually bump your head at the Cross.
The Passover was in Nisan....
...and yet, Jesus died in a different month? Sorry, didn't happen.
Research it for yourself. Jesus had to die before the High Sabbath would begin the Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread. The pre-selected Passover lambs were killed in an approximately two-hour period between 3 p.m. and 5 p.m. or so, on Nisan 14. The descent of darkness on Abib/Nisan 14 marked the time for the beginning of the Passover Seder and the Feast of Unleavened Bread--(which was already reckoned to be Nisan 15 because of the start of the new day at sundown). Some of the source of confusion is that the Roman Julian calendar and later Gregorian calendar reckoned days to begin and end at midnight.
I am sorry, but are you speaking for yourself here. We both have used the same scriptures. You have used todays cultural norms to forge your POV. I have not. I have followed the traditions of the Jewish cultural norms of Jesus' day.
It seems that when people can logically present a strong case against your personally perceived wisdom, that you react badly. Angrily in fact. I am sorry, but it seems to me that you need to repent of your sins of turning away from God and trampling His Sanctuary and Holy scriptures.
Shalom
One word does not fit the other misfitted words. Guess which one?
