1 | 3 days,3nights in the earth | Matthew | chach | 187699 | ||
my question, explain the Friday crucification and the Sunday resurrection day....the most I can get out of it is 2nights and 1 day....but Jesus told the pharisees when they demanded a sign from Him that none would be given but the sign of Jonah...as Jonah was 3 night and 3 days in the belly of fish so shall the Son of Man....I have been explained from the Jewish traditions(traditions of men I might add) about the different ways they calculated sunrise,sunsets and days...but I think Jesus knew what a day and night was when he made that statement(after all he created night and day) God Bless. | ||||||
2 | 3 days,3nights in the earth | Matthew | Psalm 25 | 187700 | ||
chach, From what I know you already have the most excepted explaination. The Jews considered the next day as starting at 6pm. Thus, each 24 hour period began at 6pm until 6pm the next day. So if you count what we would call "a fragment of a day," according to the way we calculate a 24 hour period, then Jesus was 3 days and 3 nights. Hope this helps Psalm 25 |

3 | 3 night 3 days in tomb | Matthew | chach | 187801 | ||
thanks for both replies but both explainations rely on the Jewish tradition, which I have heard before...the Jewish Encyclopedia is a tradition of man...God clearly discripes what a night and day is in Genesis 1. My Jewish Believer guide in Isreal said that Jesus was crucified on a Wed..based on the Passover and Feast of unleven bread...requiring 2 sabbaths in resurrection week...a high sabbath(see levitics) and regular sabbath...does anybody know anything about the feasts?...apparently they were celebrated on the 14th and 15th of nissan every year... this makes more sense to me...If anyone has any insight on this could they fill me...most likely will not affect my salvation but this is something that has bothered me since I was a child. | ||||||

chach, The details are too numberous to include here so I would suggest that you visit this web site as it goes into much detail and addresses the same issue of "Jesus' accuracy." http://www.biblestudy.org/basicart/threeday.html Psalm 25 |

Thank you Psalm 25 for the website, my question was completely answered...I might add exactly as my Jewish believer guide had explained to us when we were in Isreal last year. Jesus declared the "only sign"to prove He was the Messiah would be 3 days and 3 nights in the earth. And Jesus Himself knew what a day and was "are there not 12 hours in a day...." As a fairly new believer..I have been taught that scripture interprets scripture...If you have a problem with a verse or word in the word research the bible for your answer ...do not use any outside sources(such as a Jewish encycopedia) that is why I have a problem with the enterpretion of "day" ...a real easy one to look up...Gen 1:3 has Gods complete interpretion...I believe the Frid-Sunday is merely a tradition, which Christ does warn "the word of God of none effect through you traditions" | ||||||
