Subject: Three Days and Three Nights |
Bible Note: DocTrinsograce, re: "Your persistence may yet yield the particular answer you want." Well, in over 10 years of querying folks who say that Matthew 12:40 is employing common idiomatic language, none have provided any examples which allow them to legitimately make the assertion. Nevertheless, during the next 10 years there may be someone who can support their position. Fortunately I'm in no hurry. re: "So tell me, with such unflagging perseverance to know this thing: which of the commentators, scholars, or teachers have you studied in that time?" For the purpose of this topic I'm not concerned with studying anything. I'm merely asking someone who says that Matthew 12:40 is using idiomatic language to support their assertion by providing examples from the period which show that a daytime or a night time was said to be involved with an event when no part of the daytime or no part of the night time could have occurred. re: "So as we have patiently answered your question over the years..." I've missed it if you have. How about pointing out the post/s? re: "...please reward us with some of what you have gleaned." I've gleaned that so far no one has provided any examples to support their assertion. |
