ok, here is the answer to the question posed to ES in post #44 that he does not want any part of -
a jewish boy born on the 14th of nisan MUST be circumcised on the eighth day as Uriel points out as commanded by Genesis 17. the eighth day is the 21st of nisan and here is how that is calculated:
nisan 14 - day one ( our wednesday )
nisan 15 - day two ( our thursday )
nisan 16 - day three ( our friday )
nisan 17 - day four ( our saturday )
nisan 18 - day five ( our sunday )
nisan 19 - day six ( our monday )
nisan 20 - day seven ( our tuesday )
nisan 21 - day eight ( our wednesday )
well, well, we can now visually see why ES ran did not and could not answer the question -
if Jesus died on nisan 14 and rose on nisan 18, THAT WOULD BE DAY FIVE. THE SCRIPTURES SAY OVER AND OVER, JESUS ROSE ON THE THIRD DAY.
We must count days as the Scriptures do and as the Jews would have when they heard Jesus declare HE WOULD RISE ON THE THIRD DAY.
let’s look at how Jesus counted days...suppose Jesus was speaking in Luke 13:32 on nisan 14, on what day would he finish his course?
nisan 14 - today
nisan 15 - tomorrow
nisan 16 - the third day
this is entirely consistent with the chart above used to calculate when is the eighth day for circumcision.
Christians and Jews can both count to three, cultists seem to have trouble with this for some reason.
According to the Scriptures and the 2,000 year teaching of the Universal Church, here is how the three days is calculated:
nisan 15 - friday - day one
nisan 16 - sabbath - day two
nisan 17 - first day of the week - THE THIRD DAY
sorry folks, i can’t make it any plainer than that.
As usual you have struck out.
The days of the Biblical month do not correspond to any pagan day. They are counted from the new moon, as it is sighted on the temple mount in Jerusalem at sunset.
Where you got the cockamamie idea that there could be any correspondence is just another one for the funny-farm.
Yes you have made it plain that you have no understanding of the scriptures. The 8 days have to be full days, as it is the time that is required for the child’s blood to be able to coagulate. This requires 8 full days, so the circumcision would be performed as close as possible to that 192 hour period.
Yeshua rose on the 3rd sunset following Passover, which is being on sunset at the end of the 17th day. The scriptures do not specifically call out which day of the week he was crucified, but it is clear that since he arose at the beginning of the first day of the week, Passover fell on the 5th day of the week, a simple calculation.
The information contained in the gospels also confirms this fact indirectly, inasmuch as the day following Passover was a normal business day, permitting the burial materials to be purchased.
When one argues with these facts, they show their own ignorance of the Hebrew lifestyle and Torah requirements.
No, the answer you are looking for can be found in this question:
If a child is born in the gloaming, which day does his birth belong to?
