***May I ask a silly question. If the Naval Observatory says that the full moon rose on the 6th of April and it was a Thursday****
No problem. After about 1500 years of keeping a passover I believe they knew the moon was at it’s fullest and that happened between 8PM and 10 PM that evening of the Roman Thursday, but by Jewish reconing it was the first hours of Nisan 14, or Friday while still dark.
I don't believe I have ever encountered anyone who purposely skews the scriptures to fit their traditions as much as you do.
Use your head. If the full moon occurs on a Thursday (as you admit....and the Naval Observatory confirms) then the Passover must be the previous day. Most folks would agree that the previous day to Thursday is Wednesday and why you continue to say Passover would then be on Friday totally escapes me. The full moon begins on the conjunction of the 14th and the 15th. According to the Naval Observatory this would be Wednesday Night/Thursday Morning....April 5th/April 6th.
Just answer one question. Are you aware that the Feast of Unleavened Bread (the 15th) takes place on the full moon of Nisan and follows the Passover (the 14th), the previous day?
I'll await your answer....and until we settle this question........ I'll disregard anything else you have to say. This is getting too silly.
In fact....I'll ask an open question. Is anyone else aware that the Feast of Unleavened Bread always occurs on a full moon and follows the Passover? I'm curious now if this is not common knowledge since "Ruy" is so adamant about Passover being the next day, Friday.
He says that the moon was its fullest between 8:00 P.M. and 10:00 P.M. on the close of Thursday, April 6th, 30 A.D. Stop and analyze this silliness. If the full moon was on the 6th of April it had to be the 15th of Nisan. That day has been shown to be Thursday....and Yeshua had already been entombed before sundown the previous night! He died on the 14th.....not the 16th! Where in scripture does it say that the Passover comes the day after the Feast? And where in scripture does it say the Feast is not on the full moon of the 15th?
I'll await your answer to my question in paragraph 3.
