Dear Ed Sutton,
You cannot kill this thread; you cannot make facts disappear; you cannot cope with your own conscience. May God be merciful to you.
I am not attempting to kill any thread. I have posted previously as to this sequence of events, where you and I disagree in interpretation of the time frame.
But mentioning "5 days", let alone "6 days", is a ridiculous stretch, at best.
Not one person, other than you, has been able to come up with "5 days", or "6 days", in any event, even from a "Wednesday" crucifixion, nor could you, except by simultaneously combining "Roman time", "Jewish time", the phrasing of such, then adding to it, the contemporary speaking of 'days' collectively, and then drawing out from that amalgamation, a contrived reckoning, solely for the purpose of disparaging it.
Any possible scenario from approximately 3 pm on a Wednesday afternoon, until approximately slightly before 6 AM on Sunday morning, covers a time span of a maximum of nearing 87 hours, or nine hours less than is possible to get into a 5
th 24 hr. day, let alone a 6
th one. This little contrived scenario also fails to take into account the more than 81 hrs., or almost another 3 1/2 days remaining to get back around to the following Wednesday at 3 pm, needed to conclude one week. There are still, now as then, only 7 days and 168 hours in a week, and even Joshua and Hezekiah, on their best day, did not see any 80 hr. day!
(
Them's the facts!! And they are not disappearing, but lying right there on the computer screen, in front of all on the BB!!)
Although apparently in them, Gerhard Ebersoehn can still manage to see an 80 hr day.
I do have to acknowledge some of the most 'creative isogesis', I have ever seen in my entire life, however, in this attempt to 'prove' a point.
Frankly, I am not the one who should have the 'conscience' problem, here.
