Figure of speech/colloquialism?
- Thread starter rstrats
- Start date
That's an issue for different topic. This one is with regard to examples which show that a daytime or a night time was forecast or said to be involved with an event when no part of a daytime or no part of a night time could occur.

@rstrats -- is it possible that you simply don't like taking reality as reality. Seems you've been given examples of where a part of a day or night is taken as a complete day or night.
Yes, we're aware of that. Maybe you're barking up the wrong tree. And for what reason?
Actually, they are the same 'issue'.

YES thank you
In the tomb (and the underworld) from Wednesday evening to Thursday evening > Thursday evening to Friday evening > Friday evening to Saturday evening > resurrection
for the intervening Thursday would have been the Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur)
John 19:31 Since it was the day of Preparation, and so that the bodies would not remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a high day), the Jews asked Pilate that their legs might be broken and that they might be taken away.
I see you still don't get it. Let's try this a different way:
1. Do you believe the crucifixion took place on the 6th day of the week? Yes or no? If no, stop here; this topic doesn't apply to you. If yes, go to question two.
2. Do you think the "heart of the earth" is referring to the tomb or at the earliest to the moment when the Messiah's spirit left His body? If no, stop here; this topic doesn't apply to you. If yes, go to question three.
3. Do you try to explain the lack of a 3rd night by saying that the Messiah was using common Jewish figure of speech/colloquial language? If no, stop here; this topic doesn't apply to you. If yes, go to question four.
4. What examples then are you using to legitimately say that the Messiah was using common figure of speech/colloquial language, i.e., examples where a daytime or a night time was for forecast or said to be involved with an event when no part of a daytime or no part of a night time could have occurred?

Hhhhmmmmm I am thinking can you provide any answers to your own question?

If I could I wouldn't have had any reason to start this topic.

re: "Actually, they are the same 'issue'."
Your issue: Examples where a part of a daytime or a part of a night time is taken as complete daytime or a complete night time.
The topic's issue: Examples where a daytime or a night time was forecast or said to be involved with an event when no part of a daytime or no part of a night time could have occurred.
How can you say those are the same thing?
BTW, you have questions directed to you in post numbers 165 and 168.

Actually I am incorrect here - the Thursday would be the first day of the feast of Unleavened bread - The LORD's Passover > Leviticus 23:4-8 (which commenced at sunset)

Then why start the topic if there are no examples?
How do you know that there aren't?

I think you have way to much time on your hands.

There seems to be a lot of that going around.

I asked how can you say those are the same thing? What is odd about that? And I would still like to hear why you think they are the same thing.
Also, why did you feel the need to quote my comment to you about post numbers 165 and 168 if you were just going to ignore it?
