The Good Friday-Easter Sunday Question

[Uri’el-2012]

After 6pm Saturday is Sunday (i.e. the first day of the week). What am I missing here?

In the world of today, the day called Sunday
begins at Midnight and continues until the following midnight.

In the Holy Word of Elohim, the day
begins at sundown and continues until the following sundown.

The first "day" of the week begins at sundown following Shabbat.

Nice smear there, implying Mark or I have belittled YOU for your beliefs.

All the belittlement has been aimed at—and is well deserved by—the claims you make here.

As for me being rude? LOL

You rather famously, and certainly falsely, claimed to have apologized to me three times. You have engaged in mindreading, ascribed motives to me and twisted my words.

Not only is that rude and dishonest, it also represents serial violation of Religion Forum rules.

As usual, very well put AG!

Do not make this thread "about" individual Freepers. That is also a form of "making it personal."

Discuss the issues all you want, but do not make it personal.

[Alamo-Girl]

Thank you so much for your encouragements, dear Godzilla!

In the world, days begin at midnight. In the Word of Elohim, days begin at sundown and continue until the following sundown.

I agree with that,and the context of early Christianity followed the sunset-sunset definition for some time. In that the first day of the week starts at sundown on the 'day' called Saturday. OK

Yah'shua rose from the dead on the day following the Shabbat during Pesach the Feast of First Fruits.

Which would be sometime after "Saturday" sunset - the first day of the week, the Gospel accounts tell of the resurrection of the following morning of the first day.

Christ rose on Sunday, sometime after 6pm Saturday our time.

Sunday began at sunset following Saturday. Christ rose on Sunday, not the Pagan day of saturn.

[Petronski]

What am I missing here?

The stunning depths of obstinence in denial of reality.

Luk 24:1 Now on the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they, and certain other women with them, came to the tomb bringing the spices which they had prepared.

[Petronski]

So there’s a lolcats Bible now?

I can has won?

G> the Gospel accounts tell of the resurrection of the following morning of the first day.

Interesting but it does not prove your assertion.

For starters, it proves that the day accounting is correct, the morning of the first day of the week. His resurrection was forshadowed by the feast of First Fruits. The four gospels relate the stone was rolled away at sunrise. And that the announcement of His resurrection, made by the angel was that morning - and not any time before.

Review Mark 16:6 & Luke 24:6

The young men spoke in the past tense.
i.e. It occurred at a time before.

[My previous post was misaddressed and will I hope be deleted shortly.

Anyhoo...]

Of course, Sunday began at sunset the evening before.

John was a Torah observant Jew who was a follower of the Messiah.

By following the Messiah, Jesus Christ, the second Person of the Blessed Trinity, John became a Catholic.

Not sure what you're asking per se . . .

I think your conjectures, musings on such are quite Biblical and accurate.

I particularly think in such discussions that these Scriptures are MOST pertinent and most ruling:

Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holy day, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath [days]: Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body [is] of Christ. - Colossians 2:16-17

And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath: Therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath. – Mark 2:27-28
