1 | Explain reason for change .... | Not Specified | Gerhard Ebersöhn | 219150 | ||
Explain the REASON for this change, intentionally MADE: KJAV: "In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week ...."; NKJV: "Now after the Sabbath, as the first day of the week began to dawn ...." Please do not try to explain to me the change as such; I am able to see and understand that myself, thanks. A.T. Robertson was of great help in that respect. So kindly, explain to me the REASON the translators had to bring the change about. Thank you. GE |

2 | Acts 2:1 | Lev 23:15 | Gerhard Ebersöhn | 219100 | ||
Pentecost was the 'fiftieth day' after "the sabbath" of the passover. "The sabbath" of the passover was the second day of the 'eight-days-feast' or 'season', of passover which began on the 14th day of the First Month ('Abib' / 'Nisan') "when they always had to slaughter the passover (sacrifice)". The 15th day began after sunset in "that night" that began the second day of the passover but first day of the "Feast of Unleavened Bread" of the passover. "On the fifteenth day must you eat unleavened bread until the twenty first day .... from the first day until the seventh day" Ex12:18b,15c. The first day unleavend bread was eaten was "the sabbath", Lv23:11,15. "From the day after the sabbath", i.e., from and including Abib 16, seven 'sabbaths' or weeks of seven days each "must you count", and the day after the last of these 'weeks' - the fiftieth day - was 'Shavuot' or 'fiftieth' or 'pentecost'. Abib 16 and "The First Sheaf Wave Offering Before the LORD" marked the beginning of the winter-harvest, and Pentecost marked its completion with an offering of two leavened LOAVES made from the new harvest. |

"when did they have the fist pentecost happen"? The very first pentecost of course was after no harvest, Israel having roamed the wilderness but fifty days after the exodus! But God bestowed on Israel the harvest of His Own Labours with His Presence at mount Sinai or Horeb, and three days after, Shavuot gave them the Law. The Jews do not make this distinction; they assimilate the giving of the Law and the Presence of the LORD (in Person). It is another question which canoot be discussed here for lack of space and time, as well as relevancy, I guess. |

No, I am not a SDA. I believe with the 'Reformed Church', 'Doppers' in South Africa. In other words, I am a Calvinist. I do not however believe Sunday is the Lord's Day of worship-rest. Like Calvin, I believe Jesus resurrected on the Seventh Day Sabbath. Unfortunately Calvin said, that as Christ resurrected on the Sabbath Day, he abolished it. I believe though by having raised on the Sabbath Day Christ invested the Sabbath with a property and worthiness it before did not have but in the figures from the Old Testament dispensation like the creation and the redemption from the bondage in Egypt. Like Karl Barth - also a Calvinist - I believe "what made this day" - the day of the Church's worship-rest - "what it is, is that which happened on it and to it, namely, the resurrection of Christ from the dead". Unfortunately (once again) Barth attributed this privilege and right of the day of Jesus' resurrection, incorrectly and inappropriately, to the First Day of the week, Sunday. Because it is written for ever: "In the Sabbath's fullness of day mid-afternoon as it began to dawn towards the First Day of the week ...." and the circumstance of Jesus resurrection, occurring. With this Truth ALL TRUTH of the Scriptures perfectly agree. That is why I am a Sabbath's believer and follower of Jesus Christ, despite all opposition holding to the Head and the Corpus Christi, nourishment being ministered at Sabbath's feasting on Christ Jesus, growing with the growth of God. Col2:12-19. | ||||||

.... I respect your belief, though I believe you are incorrect .... Dear John, I really won't mind if you were disrespectful to my 'belief' or believed I am incorrect. Are the Scriptures correct and do we understand them correctly? The Scriptures are the basis we depart from pertaining our 'belief'. I, as much as you. I would not say or publish for my personal 'belief' anything I believe will be contrary the Scriptures. So unless you can show me unscriptural in my 'belief' of the Seventh Day Sabbath of the LORD God Almighty unchanging and eternally faithful, Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the responsibility rests upon you to do so. |
