I was surprised you didn't catch the what looks likes a contradiction in John 19:13.

You're pretty sharp at noticing these things in the past and I was waiting for to bring it up.

John said it around the 6th hour/12 noon when this trial was taking place with Christ and Pilate.

Luke leads us to believe it was around the 1st hour/ 6am.

Here is an example beyond a doubt that John was using Roman time when he said the 6th hour/6am, the same time as Luke.

@Charlie24,
The preparation of the Passover 7 day week is not the same as the day of Preparation before the 7th day Sabbath.

That is exactly right! So if I am correct with a Wed. crucifixion and I'm sure I am, the High Sabbath day fell on Thur. with Christ crucified on Wed. the preparation day. The High Sabbath day was followed by Fri. the preparation day for the weekly Sabbath on Sat.

If you just drop trying the match and place together the info from the 4 Gospels and just stick with the words of Christ that He would be in the tomb 3 days and 3 nights, the only possible time of crucifixion would be Wed.

Yes, the 6th hour from midnight.

It makes sense because John was well known by the Romans and had connections with them the other disciples didn't have.

Remember at the trial the Romans gave John permission to enter in the courtyard with the High Priest, and John brought Simon Peter in.

So the High Priest knew John well enough to grant him entrance.
