    SilkenBast, re: "As it is either morning, evening, day or night, what possible time could you be referring to?" All three. Why do you ask?

    Common Figure of Speech?

    SilkenBast, re: "Then you will find it." Actually, it's "them", i.e., examples from the period which show instances where a night time or a daytime 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. And since it...

    Common Figure of Speech?

    Pedrito, "And the stated request of rstrats in Post #17 (Again, the topic request for examples is with regard to the commonality of forecasting a daytime or a night time when no part of the daytime or no part of the night time could occur.) has been satisfied..." Actually, it hasn't. You have...

    Pedrito, re: "This was intended to be the last Post in a series of three, investigating the number of days that transpired between Jesus’ burial and resurrection." That's an issue for a different topic. re: "(BTW, I draw my rubber sword in defence against rstrats statement in Post #32: I...

    Common Figure of Speech?

    Pedrito, re: "...have I not indeed provided examples that are spot on (demonstrably pertinent)?" Not that I have seen. I have not seen even 1 actual instance provided 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...

    Albion, re: "Is the quote function as it works on this forum something you are having trouble using?" It seems simple enough, but for some reason that I can't quite put my finger on, I prefer not to. Kinda like for some reason folks here prefer not to be responsive to the request in the OP in...

    psalms 91, re: "Simple the high sabbeth would be a second sabbeth that week and would explain the discrepancy very nicely" Indeed, but that's an issue for a different topic.

    Common Figure of Speech?

    psalms91, re: "You might want to explore the high sabbeth that occurs because of Passover to resolve the issue" You didn't address your post to anyone, but if it's intended for me I'm afraid I don't see how the high sabbeth during Passover provides the issue of examples which show actual...

    Common Figure of Speech?

    Pedrito, "We thus see exposed the inbuilt illogicality of the 'traditional' reasoning invoked to support the Friday-Sunday timeline." Is this your way of saying that you don't believe in a 6th day of the week crucifixion? And the rest of your post deals with issues for a different topic...

    Common Figure of Speech?

    Albion, re: "Excuse me, but it is about speculation over the day on which Our Lord rose from the grave." And again, that is not what it is about. It's about providing examples which show that it was common to forecast or say that a daytime or a night time would be or was involved with an event...

    Common Figure of Speech?

    Albion, re: "Yes, its speculation about which day was Resurrection Day, and speculation concerning how the days and nights should or were counted." But those are different issues for a different topic. This one is concerned with one thing and only one thing: 1. The Messiah said that He...

    Common Figure of Speech?

    Albion, re: "So this one is just about Bible trivia...Such questions do sometimes make for interesting speculation..." Actually, the topic is not about speculation. It's about actual examples, i.e., instances where a daytime or a night time was forecast or said to be involved with an event...

    Albi re: "Maybe this question should also be answered: 'What difference does it make to us on which day the Resurrection took place? '" That's an issue for a different topic. Perhaps you could start one.

    Common Figure of Speech?

    Pedrito, re: "I’m suggesting that sometimes it is wise not to jump the gun." I don't see what that has to do with you knowing right now if believe that the crucifixion took place on the 6th day of the week? Do you or don't you?

    Common Figure of Speech?

    Pedrito, re: "I suggest we follow the evidence and see where that leads. Evidence will be presented in two Posts yet to come. Why don’t we see where we end up with that?" Are you saying that you won't know if you believe in a 6th day of the week crucifixion until you get to the end of your...

    Is faith a wholly voluntary act?

    Common Figure of Speech?

    Josiah, re: "The Scriptures contain several examples which clearly show that in Bible times a part of a day was often equivalent to the whole day." I agree with regard to calendar days. But where are there any examples that show that it was common to forecast or say that a daytime or a night...
