Hi Tamara, Could I add my 2cents in here? In the Mishna Tractate Pesahim there is comment on Galilean "tradition" to the observance of Passover; it's called seudah maphashket which actually means "last supper." The Galilean firstborn sons would eat this pseudo (spell?) Passover meal the first hour of Passover (the one in question would be Weds night 5-7pm ish). If this is what took place then work the days amd the math and everything works out exactly as recorded in the gospels, right down to the fact that the next day the 15th (or 7ish on Thur evening) is the beginning of Matza and that is also considered a "festival sabbath" (Lev. 23:5-7) with many of the same do's and don't's as the 7th day sabbath, (such as handling a corpse, so that alone should give us pause to think, if they buried Him on Fri it was still considered a sabbath????). Just as the Galileans had their traditions, so did the Judean and Samaritan Jews, and probably each group knew of the others' traditions and that might be why it is not mentioned in detail in the gospels, cos they were Galilean Jews writing to mostly other Jews about a Galilean Jew. I, myself, don't know if this is the way it was or not, (I don't subscribe 100 percent to it but I don't throw it off as not a possibility, either). It is food for some thought. You think? Cheri |

Sure Tam I'll be glad to. Weds 13th (we'll say 7pm is sundown) so 7pm becomes (to the Jews as good as) Thu this seudah maphashket is eaten by firstborns to commerorate the ones who were in danger on that first Passover. During the evening of Weds 13th into early morning Thurs 14th Messiah is betrayed, tried, found guilty and crucified (that around 9ish). Approx 3pm Thurs 14th He dies. (Also around 3pm on this day the passover lambs are actually slaughtered, what timing, huh?) Thurs 14th 7pm becomes the new day, Feast of Matza, and a festive sabbath Thurs 7pm begins Night 1 Fri 5am (this is our sunrise time :-) ) begins Day 1 Fri 7pm begins Night 2 Sat 5am begins Day 2 Sat 7pm begins Night 3 Sun 5am begins Day 3 On this do we know what time He actually arose? I don't know if we do, is why I'm asking. It is agreed by most that Jews consider any part of a day as a day - so there you have it. I think this is possible? The main thing though IS that He DID die and rise again and ascended to the right hand of the Father to ever intercede for me and you and all of us. Cheri |

Dear Cheri, I agree the substance of the thing is the most important part above the consideration of timing here or trying to understand what Jesus said and what it meant. Here is a question about that timing and explanation you got there... If any part of a day constitutes a day, then why could it not be that; He was crucified Friday morning before the Saturday Sabbath begins, dies before sundown and is buried before 7 at night. He is in the grave by 7 on Friday night when the Sabbath begins counting as day one. He lays in the grave all Saturday and this counts as day two. He lays in the grave through 7 on Saturday night which counts as the beginning of day three and therefore this counts as one whole day. He gets up sometime before Mary arrives still in day three. In this way because any part of a day constitutes a whole day He indeed stays in the grave three days and three nights because any part of a day counts as one twenty four hour period? I don't know what you think of this and please like others in here that mean no harm, but don't understand why I always seem to say something different than what is presented to me, please don't take this as disputing your point or arguing or disagreeing. I am only trying to understand you, but also to see what the Bible actually meant to say... God's Day To You, Tamara |

Hiya Tam Fri am day 1 fri pm night 1 sat am day 2 sat pm night 2 sun am day 3 where is night 3 doesn't Messiah say "as Jonah was...three days and three nights in the belly...so shall the Son of man be..."? or am I remembering that wrong? But my main understanding is in the Fri part this was considered a sabbath - the first and last days of Unleavened Bread are sabbaths - not 7th day sabbaths where absolutely no work is to be done but sabbaths, festive sabbaths where some work (such as preparing the meal, cleaning a bit for guests) could be done - but the major things to not do on a 7th day sabbath would still hold true, such as not doing your livelyhood job, not touching a corpse, etc. So, I personally, have to reconcile that. Shalom Cheri |
