You pinged me?

some incorrect information by editor-surveyor (post #132) and daniel1212

Consider the source.

Strong's #7677 shabbathown; sabbatism or special holiday:--rest, sabbath. Shabbathown is carried into the Greek as SABBATWN and it does not mean "Week"! ... If you wish to check the usage of the word SABBATWN in the New Testament.......please do. You'll find it's in use describing Feast Days or the seven Sabbaths of the Omer....not the regular weekly Sabbath.

Shabbathown is not simply used for a special holiday or plural sabbaths, but also is used in referring to the weekly sabbath by describing its character, as in, "on the seventh day there shall be to you an holy day, a sabbathH7676 of restH7677" - Exo_35:2.

And in the NT sabbatwn is used, according to your own source, to refer to the weekly sabbath, as in Lk. 4:16, in which Jesus "went into the synagogue on the sabbath [sabbatwn] day, and stood up for to read."

And,

But when they departed from Perga, they came to Antioch in Pisidia, and went into the synagogue on the sabbath [sabbatwn] day, and sat down. (Acts 13:14)

And on the sabbath [sabbatwn] we went out of the city by a river side, where prayer was wont to be made; and we sat down, and spake unto the women which resorted thither. (Acts 16:13) More

Meanwhile in the resurrection accounts it is used to refer to the weekly sabbath as referring to the first of the sabbath, the beginning of the interval between two Sabbath rest, (Mt. 28:1; Mark 16:2, Luke 24:1; Jn. 20:1,19) though i know you must work hard to make this refer to another sabbath, and insist God would have worded it your way in cases which are translated otherwise.

I pinged you..... as it’s considered good form to do so....if you mentions one’s name in your posting. I did so in answer to a question.
