Scripture ... Mark 11:1-2 "As they approached Jerusalem, at Bethphage and Bethany, near the Mount of Olives, He sent two of His disciples, and said to them, 'Go into the village opposite you, and immediately as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, on which no one yet has ever sat; untie it and bring it here'"" ... God's day to you, biblicalman, Even if the spent the night at the Mount of Olives (I think they started before that point since I read they "approached" it) the two disciples vilolated since they had to go to "the village opposite you" and back. Jesus would not have asked them to violate the Sabbath. Maps are great - just because New Bible Dictionary doesn't use them, others do. This is my last time refuting you, Searcher |

hi searcher Bethphage was counted as in Jerusalem therefore any walking around in Bethphage would not affect the Sabbath Days journey. By the time of Jesus the sabbath days journey only began when you left your town or city. it was based on the fact that when Israel were in the camp they were not restricted as long as the walk was for spiritual reasons. The camp counted as home. the sabbath days journey only began when you left the camp thus walking around in Jerusalem did not count as part of the sabbath days journey. I think you will find that all the visitors to the Passover camped around the city were counted as living in the city. but i have never said anything about Palm Sunday so i am not sure what you mean all i have shown is that the Scripture makes clear that Jesus and His disciples started each day from a point which was within a sabbath days journey of Jerusalem according to Luke 24; Acts 1. Lol you can enjoy maps as you wish. But do not teach that they are necessarily accurate. MUch on them is guesswork with little to go by. Best wishes |
