To BrotherTony?

I'm not asking about the actual number of hours or days that the Messiah spent in the "heart of the earth", I'm asking if the "heart of the earth" is referring to the time, i.e., the period between the Messiah's death and His resurrection? Or is it referring to something else?
-
I don't understand the point you are trying to make.
-
For the purpose of this topic, the actual amount of time between the crucifixion and the resurrection is irrelevant.
-
That is incorrect. The time of the burial is an issue for a different topic. This one is only concerned with what is asked.
-
Sorry, the poll issue was poorly conceived . It should have asked: Meaning of "heart of the earth" in Mathew 12:40? O The place between the Messiah's death and His resurrection. O Other Not sure what you mean by "...press a point that isn't."
-
But at least the time between the Messiah's death and His resurrection.
-
re: "While the context and historical Christian tradition clearly shows this word to be reference to the celebration of Christ's resurrection on the Sunday Morning..." Seems curious, though, that scripture is silent with regard to anyone celebrating the first day of the week in honor of the resurrection.
-
You never know, there might be someone in the future.
-
But maybe someone new looking in may know of examples.
-
I never said that. In fact I agreed with what you wrote about the fallacy of a 6th day crucifixion. It's just that that is an issue for a different topic.
-
I don't know why you keep saying that since it still has nothing to do with this topic. BTW, you have a question directed to you in post #36.
-
-
Indeed, they do. What is your point?
-
And I agree with that. But again, that's an issue for a different topic. The only concern of this topic is the commonality of saying that a daytime or a night time would be involved with a event when no part of a daytime or no part of a night time could be. To that end, I'm simply looking for examples - plural - to support the idea of commonality.
-
I "grasp" everything you're saying. It's just that what you're saying deals with issues for a different topic.
-
-
Correct, which is where the event took place 2000 years ago.
-
We're talking about an event which took place 2000 years ago where a calendar day went from sundown to sundown, and not from midnight to midnight.
-
So you're saying the Messiah rose sometime during Sunday night. That would mean that 4 night times would have been involved. But He said that only 3 would be. BTW, Saturday night had been over some 12 hours by the time Saturday ended.
-
When you said the Messiah rose sometime after sundown on Saturday night, to what part of Saturday were you referring?
-
Although, off topic, that would only be maybe an hour or so on Wednesday, all day Thursday, all day Friday and only a partial day on Saturday. How do you get 3 full days?
-
Which seems odd for a Baptist site.
-
Are there any folks on this site who believe the crucifixion took place on the 6th day of the week?
