Common Figure of Speech?

[Albion]

To what are you referring by "it".

...what I think you were referring to in your post #238 overview of the timing of the Crucifixion, interment, and Resurrection of Christ.

That's what I'm doing.

Good. I'm sure you will find plenty that will clarify the matter for you.

You think incorrectly. That's an issue for a different topic.

Perhaps someone new looking in may know of examples.

Examples of what?

I still don't see to what you're referring.

Yes you do. You're just...pretending...cough. You know full well what I am getting at as I have shown the emptiness of your argument. I have shown your deceptive riddle for what it is.

Read your riddle in post #(1). Read post #(213).

Your riddle is made for your answer. All has been explained from posts (1-206). Perhaps there is someone out there who is new who can help you out? Or perhaps you have something new to offer?

But, I doubt it.

Yes you do.

No I don't.

Examples of what?

Examples which show that it was common to say that a daytime or a night time would be involved with an event when no part of a daytime or no part of a night could be involved.

And remember, the "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 who tries to explain the lack of a 3rd night by saying that the Messiah was employing common figure of speech/colloquial language of the period.

I wonder if anyone who falls in that group of believers could provide examples to support that belief; 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 could have occurred?

It was the end of a day, two nights with a day in between, then at most the first few moments of other day.
