He was beaten BEFORE the cross within a inch of his life.
The church I go to had a good Thursday service
Do you have a link to a study about the Lords table? I searched but its mostly links to last supper. I suspect you are talking about something other then the catholic tradition
The problem arises when people take a man made invention like the Gregorian calendar and try to make it more authoritative than Scripture. Pope Gregory assigned the wrong date to the crucifixion.
This is what Jesus Himself said....
Matthew 12:40 For just as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
The chart fits with that completely showing that there is no discrepancy.
It probably seemed like it to Him.
That’s interesting because I was always under the impression it was less - noon to three.
Probably as a result of my religious upbringing.
I believe Jesus changed Passover to His Remembrance. He showed with the Lord’s Table that He is The Lamb of God. He will return as the Lion ... Since Passover is Nisan 14, I am celebrating The Lord’s Table on that date now. If it was good enough for Polycarp it should be good enough for this old man.
The year my daughters were baptized, we had a Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, Easter Vigil (Saturday evening, at which they were baptized), and Easter Sunday service. It's a powerful sequence, but also murder on the clergy involved if only one priest conducts them all.
In that smallish parish, it was the only year we observed all those services in seriatim. Afterwards, at least one of them, sometimes two of them, dropped out.
But, in larger parishes, where you have a second priest or a couple of deacons, you can conduct them all without driving the clergy to drink!
It is written

it is also written,
mathew 13:34
All these things Jesus spoke to the crowds in parables, and He did not speak to them without a parable.
My church is totally Bible believing Christian 1st century type.
The pastor didn't get any sleep last nite preparing for sunrise service, breakfast and regular service.
He didn't get driven to drink.
I imagine he is sleeping now...
I know what Maunday and seriatim mean but we use words everyone understands.
Not may Latins around anymore.
BTTT
Just as the bible explains it...
Or days or hours.
The Jewish 'day' starts at sundown.
Ours at midnight.
The Book doesn’t say.
Anything we come up with will be speculation; based on FACTS; no doubt; but still speculation.
Ah, but those who use their vocabulary are everywhere! All over the world, in fact.
Ooooo goody I am glad I did not have to teach you that, you have been paying attention!
The Gregorian Calendar said nothing about it, one way or the other. The only thing Pope Gregory did was to adjust the way leap years were calculated, to skip leap years every year divisible by 100 but not by 400.
Nobody in Rome knew anything about any holiday called “Easter,” which is a Germanic word, and there were lots of ideas about when to celebrate the holiday, called in Greek “Pascha,” in Polycarp’s day. But I’m unaware of Polycarp ever “walking to Rome in his old age”. Did you mean perhaps Ignatius?

Genesis 1:5
It is written,
God called the light DAY, and the darkness He called NIGHT. And there was evening and there was morning, one day.
Genesis 1:5 summarized
Light- Day
Evening (Ereb Strongs 6153- evening, Twilight, fading of DAY)
Darkness-Night
Morning (Boqer Strongs 1242- morning, dawn, break of DAY)
It is written in John 11:9
9Jesus answered, “Are there not twelve hours in the day? If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world. 10”But if anyone walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him.”
it is written, Daniel 7:25
‘He will speak out against the Most High and wear down the saints of the Highest One, and he will intend to make alterations in times and in law;
No, in 155 AD Polycarp journeyed to Rome and argued against changing the day to celebrate The Lord’s Table from what the believers in Asia Minor acknowledge, Passover, Nisan 14, to the Sunday which was being celebrated by the pagans. Nisan 14 does not always fall on a Sunday. In 2016 it falls on April 22, a Friday. Polycarp and the folks in Asia Minor taught by John and possibly Philip, were celebrating The Passover cum The Lord’s Table.
Thank you; oh Wise One!
