I've heard some explanations for this but none of them made sense to me. Many see it as a Thur. crucifixion, but that doesn't fit the High Day Sabbath. So I guess it's another "repent and be baptized" thing, pick your poison.

I was told the 7 High Day Sabbaths are High Days because all of them require a sacrifice that represented Christ in some way. In Lev. 23:7 The First Day of Unleavened Bread it is called a " holy convocation" meaning a special gathering together of Israel, or a High Day.

I agree it's the 14th. On a Wed. crucifixion it would have been Thur. Fri. Sat. 3 days. It was Sunday morning when He met the "two of them" so I wonder were they counting Sunday?

We have the same understanding on some things, the KJV, and now this. No telling what's next, lol.

I guess tradition says Fri. but that's not counting for the first day of Unleavened Bread being a Sabbath day of rest.

I've never really paid attention to the exact date of His death. Do the dates work out for a Wed. or Thur. death?

As I understand it, which can't be proven by the way, is that the High Sabbath fell on a Fri., which was the preparation day for the weekly Sasbbath. It was placed on Thur. with Fri. the preparation day for the weekly Sabbath which was normal. They were in a hurry to get Christ in the tomb...

Post # 9, I pulled from online as quick reference.

I'm not saying the length of time is changed, I'm saying there were 2 Sabbaths that week.

The scholars specifically point out the "High Day" in John 19:31 is referring to one of the 7 High Sabbaths. In this case it's the First Day of Unleavened Bread. It's moved to Thur. with Fri. being the preparation day for the weekly Sabbath.

Post # 10 is how I understand it being these High Sabbaths could fall any day of the week. That's what I gathered from the scholars, and it fits with Christ crucified on Wed.

How do you understand the placement of the High Sabbath days in correlation with the weekly Sabbaths?

According to Lev. 23:5-6, the 14th is the Passover, beginning on the 15th the unleavened bread taken. But this is an oversight, unleavened bread is eaten with the Passover on the 14th as you said. I copied the 7 High Sabbaths online and didn't see it, but you did! That's some good attention...

What separates dummy Charlie24 from the scholars is they say if the High Sabbath falls in a weekday it's placed before the weekly Sabbath. When I studied this years ago I didn't understand it and never pursued it. Maybe you know something about what I was to lazy to pursue.

There are 7 feasts yearly that are High Sabbaths, days of rest. First Day of Unleavened Bread: 15th of Abib/Nisan (Lev. 23:6-7). Last Day of Unleavened Bread: 21st of Abib/Nisan (Lev. 23:8). Feast of Weeks (Pentecost): (Lev. 23:21). Feast of Trumpets: 1st of Tishri (Lev. 23:24-25). Day of...

To make my position clear for what it's worth, man is able on his own to reason the Gospel when he hears it, but totally unable to come to the knowledge of the truth (salvation) without the drawing of the Holy Spirit when the Gospel is heard. This is not the same total depravity as claimed by...

That particular timeline coincides with a full 3 days and 3 night in the tomb. Most but not all scholars believe this to be what actually happened, the ones I've read anyway.

I won't argue it, but I believe as many that preparation day in John 19:31 was not for the weekly Sabbath but the yearly "High Sabbath."

I don't know much about the SBC, but our IFB independently supports missionaries. Back in the day, don't know about now, that was a difference.

It's like Treasury Sec. Bessent said, the POTUS has a great big tool box to pull from. I'm thinking it's a bullet he can dodge and carry on.
