Pilgrimer, re: "Indeed, there was no 'preparation day' for Passover..." John 19:14 seems to say otherwise: "Now it was the Preparation Day of the Passover..." veteran, re: "The first day of unleavend bread was to be a a high sabbath ('holy convocation'). That was not the 14th of Nisan, but...

Pilgrimer, re: "But aren’t you assuming that Jesus rose on the third day after he was buried?" For the purpose of this topic, I'm not assumming anything. The 6th day crucifixion proponents say that the use of days and nights in Matthew 12:40 was a common Jewish idiom that did not have to...

domenic, I haven't asked anyone to go back and dig out information. I've only asked if anyone "knows" of the writing referenced in the OP. You apparently do not, so you're off the hook so to speak. However, someone new looking in may "know" of some.

domenic, re: "What is your reason for this?" 　 To see if the 6th day crucifixion proponents' assertion that a stated specific number of days and a stated specific number of nights did not have to include at least a part of each one of the specific days and at least a part of each one of the...

domenic, re: "What are you trying to prove..." I would simply like to see if the 6th day crucifixion proponents' assertion that a stated specific number of days and a stated specific number of nights did not have to include at least a part of each one of the specific days and at least a part...

domenic, re: "This has been talked about until the cows came home one thousand times over. I only need one time. Do you know of any writing that shows an actual example from the first century or before regarding a period of time that is said to consist of a specific number of days as well as...

domenic, Do you know of any writing as requested in the OP?

I probably should have addressed the OP to those who think that the crucifixion took place on the 6th day of the week. Perhaps someone new looking in will know of some writing asked for in the OP.

FearNot, re: "Well, I've tried to explain our view several times and you don't seem to be accepting it." I don't see how that is a reason for quoting my comments from post #34 and then not addressing any of them. Perhaps you could explain?

Webers_Home, re: "Rev 20:10 . . And the Devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever." The KJV only has the devil being tormented day and night. 　 re...

FearNot, Any particular reason for quoting my comments from post #34 and then not addressing any of them?

FearNot, re: "I don't know how to make my point any clearer. A guy who has so far never lied to you tells you it's raining outside, but your lying friend says no. You react on your *chosen belief* in the guy with the good reputation and take an umbrella." I still don't see your point with...

John_8:32, re: "The penalty He took was that of death. The means of prosecuting that was for Him crucifixion. The means of prosecuting that for the unrepentant is the lake of fire...Do you see method as more important than result here?...The means of prosectution does not have to be identical."...

FearNot, re: "Have you never had to make a choice of what to believe?" I probably have, but once I would have decided what I wanted to believe, I would not have been able to then go ahead and actually consciously engender the belief. re: "Here's another example: I tell you it's NOT raining...

John_8:32, As with Webers_Home, I'm afraid I don't see how your post is responsive to my post #62 unless you're saying that the penalty that the Messiah took upon Himself in our place is for Him to be burned to death and converted to ashes in the lake of fire.

Webers_Home, I'm afraid I don't see how your post #63 is responsive to my post #62. I wonder if you might explain why you think that it is?

FearNot, re: "How does one choose to believe? The exact same way juries do it every day in court. They get evidence presented to them and are asked to choose whether to believe someone is guilty or not." If beliefs can be obtained by simply CHOOSING to have them, then evidence is not...

FearNot, re: "I know it's quite popular among non-believers to say that 'you can't choose to believe', but that's simply not true." 　 Perhaps you can help me, then. I have never been able to consciously CHOOSE any of the beliefs that I have, and I would like to be able to do that. Since you...

Selene, re: "So, if someone does find an author, you can get back to the other poster and point it out to him." OK, good. So do you know of a published author who argues for a change of observance from the seventh day to the first day because of the idea of a first day resurrectioin and who...

John_8:32, re: "...it was the death penalty..". Exactly what death penalty did the Messiah take upon Himself that would otherwise have to be taken by us?
