    I know what you mean as I'm there as well. . The Messiah said that He would be three days and three nights in the "heart of the earth" . There are those who think that the crucifixion took place on the 6th day of the week with the resurrection taking place on the 1st day of the week. . Of...

    Lees, re: "Well, give me an example of a believer who believes and explains just as you say." So far there have been none who have visited this topic, but you never know, there could be someone looking in in the future. re: "As I have said, Christians account for the 3 days and [3]nights...

    Common Figure of Speech?

    That's true. That's why I started this topic. If someone believes that the crucifixion took place on the 6th day of the week, and thinks that the "heart of the earth" refers to the tomb and tries to account for the lack of a 3rd night by saying that the Messiah was using common figure of...

    That has to be the case if the Messiah meant that He would be 3 nights in the tomb.

    I answered that in post #165: "The burial would have to have taken place no later than the 5th day of the week."

    Common Figure of Speech?

    So how does someone who believes the crucifixion took place on the 6th day of the week, and who thinks that the "heart of the earth" refers exclusively to the tomb account for there being only 2 night times involved between the 6th day of the week burial and the 1st day of the week resurrection?

    I don't know how you can say that there is no believer who thinks that the "heart of the earth" refers exclusively to the tomb. How can you possibly know that?

    Common Figure of Speech?

    So far that certainly seems to be the case. However, you never know - there may be somebody looking in in the future who believes the crucifixion took place on the 6th day of the week and who thinks that the "heart of the earth" is referring exclusively to the tomb and who tries to account for...

    From the OP - "I wonder if anyone who falls in that group of believers could provide examples to support that belief [of commonality] ; i.e., instances where a daytime or a night time was forecast or said to be involved with an event when no part of the daytime and/or no part of the night time...

    Perhaps someone new visiting this topic may know of examples. And again, that "someone new" needs to be someone who believes the crucifixion took place on the 6th day of the week with a 1st day of the week resurrection, and who thinks that the "heart of the earth" is referring to the tomb, and...

    Lees, re: "Yes you have said that. I have showed you many times. See your opening post and post #(99)." Please point out where in the OP or post #99 that I asserted that there are believers who don't believe that a third day or a third night can be accounted for? re: "This argument does...

    Lees, re: "It does apply to me because of your aserrtion that there are believers who don't believe a third day or night can be accounted for. " I never said that. Please show where you think that I have. And even if I had (which I haven't) this topic would still not apply to you because...

    Common Figure of Speech?

    It doesn't apply to you because you don't believe that the phrase "in the heart of the earth" refers exclusively to the tomb. This topic is directed to anyone who believes that it is referring exclusively to the tomb. I've only made three "arguments", i.e., assertions with regard to the issue...

    Common Figure of Speech?

    Then you have to know that this topic does not apply to you since you don't think that the "heart of the earth" is referring exclusively to the tomb. This topic is directed to anyone who does think that it is. Where have I said that He was? Where have I said that I want anyone to believe...

    Common Figure of Speech?

    Are you saying that my "argument" is that if someone believes that the crucifixion took place on the 6th day of the week with a 1st day of the week resurrection, and who thinks that "in the heart of the earth" refers to the Messiah's time in the tomb, and who tries to explain the lack of a 3rd...

    That does seem to be the case. He just doesn't understand yet the issue of this topic.

    Common Figure of Speech?

    Once again, to what argument are you referring? To agree with me about what? The only discussion which would be relevant to this topic would be whether or not any examples given are actually examples. I know exactly what I'm "talking about". Let me repeat: The Messiah said that He would...

    So then you're not saying that the Jonah account is an example where a daytime or a night time was said to be involved with an event when no part of a daytime or no part of a night time could have occurred. Therefore, the account is irrelevant to this topic. You say in post #144 that "Jesus...
