It would not. As far as I understand a high day is when one of the 7 feast days corresponds to the weekly sabbath. Therefore it s the same day. The immediate context is the weekly sabbath so the KJV is correct yet again.

This is not plural in my Bible. The key to being right about this day remains John 12:1. Can it be established from the scriptures that Jesus came into Bethany on a Sunday, 6 days before the Passover which was followed by the Sabbath which itself was followed by the first day of the week...

God never changes. He is the God of all grace. But he is also Judge of all the earth. So yes, God extends grace in all dispensations but he doesn't have grace as his operative principle of Divine dealing in but one dispensation. It is this one we are in now. It will end soon I think...

We are having a disconnect here. I do not know about a high day and wonder if the scriptures tells us about it. I have followed the writings of Mark and John and can definitely follow an 8 day blueprint for the whole week and the beginning of a new week. In this blueprint Jesus is in the tomb...

You know a lot more about the high day than I do. I was asking for Bible explanation on it so I could consider it. I do know that the first 4 days when Jesus was coming to and from Bethany and the Mount of Olives and Jerusalem would have exceeded a sabbath days journey round trip so we can rule...

The preparation day was missed by the ladies although they were there to prepare the body for burial. There was not time before the Sabbath. This is why they showed up on Sunday Morning. The Sabbath restrictions was not a concern on resurrection day as indicated by the 2 disciples on the way to...

What is a high Sabbath Day and where in the scriptures will I confirm it. I am asking because I want to know.

It is irrelevant. John said Jesus entered Bethany 6 days before Passover. Mark and John accounted for each day, numbering 8 days. There is no doubt that Jesus was in the tomb the full day on the sabbath else there is no typology in scripture. I suppose the reason for the Zacchaeus story and why...

In post #78 I outlined a time line for the days of the week leading up to and including the resurrection of Jesus Christ from a clear starting point given by the Bible in John 12:1. All these days were given by an eye witness and inspired apostle of Jesus Christ and was easily tracked and...

The key to understanding the crucifixion week is Jn 12:1 where we are told this; Joh 12:1 Then Jesus six days before the passover came to Bethany, where Lazarus was which had been dead, whom he raised from the dead. We will see that this day is Sunday and from here we can count the days and...

All saints of OT times went to paradise justified but not cleared of their sins. Two things happen when the blood of Christ was shed > will quote two verses telling us what they are. 1. 5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the...

I would not be guilty of accusing you of not understanding that salvation is by grace through faith in the finished work of Jesus Christ on the cross and it is available to everyone who hears and believes it. You do have a problem understanding that the Bible has structure and division that...

The typology of scripture must be reconciled to actual fulfilment of the types and figures. In the case of the day of the crucifixion and death of our saviour this is extremely important and instructive. The six hours on the cross represents the first 6 thousand years of human history. If you...

Maybe. What is important to understand is what Jn 6 44-45 is saying and to whom. Jesus is teaching Israel what the manna metaphor of the OT means. It means the manna represents him and he must dwell in them if they have eternal life. Most of the people in that audience who heard Jesus speak were...

Let's trust that God will save sinners now by the foolishness of preaching. This is the what he has chosen. It is not about God drawing them, It is about them believing the gospel. God says the gospel is the power of God unto salvation. whether he draws them or not. He says he will save anyone...
