    The Crucifixion Not Friday

    "The subject is closed." AKA, "I refuse to answer directly because it will show what I've been saying is wrong." Another way to avoid giving a straight answer. I'm amazed at the plethora of ways you try to avoid answering. This is what happened on BHSE. When you recognize an honest answer will...

    Saber Truth Tiger: Since I know little about the Greek, I must move on to the newest subject, and that is "Can plural first of the Sabbaths be referred to as the first day of the week in the New Testament? I will await your answer. Response: Sorry. It doesn't work like that. Your ignorance...

    The Crucifixion Not Friday

    If you transliterate the Hebrew to Greek as Shabat, you have Shabat. Transliteration is the process of bringing a word into a language which previously did not exist. Obviously, it the word was already present, the existing word would be used. Therefore, Shabata is the word which was brought...

    And judge for yourself how much of what Saber Truth has written about Nisan 15 here agrees with what he wrote there. Especially with respect to the Septuagint.

    The Crucifixion Not Friday

    Saber Truth Tiger (His answer on the BHSE Site) "According to the Hebrew Scriptures (Masoretic Text), Nisan 15 was never designated as a Sabbath." Hopefully those on this site will read your answer on the Biblical Hermeneutics site.

    The Crucifixion Not Friday

    Just like your antics on BHSE. Here then is a summary of what you accept. 1. Nisan 15 is a Sabbath. 2. Firstfruits is observed after the weekly Sabbath. 3. Identifying Firstfruits as the LXX as the day after the Sabbaths is correct.

    The Crucifixion Not Friday

    You are right about Acts 17:2. I was wrong. The literal Greek is Sabbaths (plural) three (plural) he reasoned (singular). The English translations I cited make Sabbaths singlar to match the verb, which they expected to be plural.

    The Crucifixion Not Friday

    SABER TRUTH TIGER I’ve already admitted this, many times over. The Hebrew word for Sabbath was singular and it was transliterated into the Greek SABBAT and the A was added to the end which made it plural. Reply: There is no evidence sabbat existed in either the LXX or the NT. σάββατα (sabbata)...

    Yes it does. When someone does the research and provides the information to others who are unwilling to check for themselves, those who are afraid facts will contradict cherished beliefs invariably justify their inaction as unnecessary. They know it already despite not knowing and can't be...

    The Crucifixion Not Friday

    Transliteration is not a matter of Greek. It's not even a matter of language. It's using the alphabet to spell words. If you know the alphabets and can spell the word in the other language. The reason you transliterate is because the word doesn't exist in the other language. Sabbata is the...

    The Crucifixion Not Friday

    I am not addressing the day of the crucifixion. I am addressing the day after the Passover, Nisan 15 which is referred to as the Sabbath in Rabbinic literature and by way of implication, in Josephus and modern Judaism. In addition, the Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible says it is the...

    Saber Truth invited me to discuss Nisan 15 when his real objective was the Friday crucifixion.

    The Crucifixion Not Friday

    Excellent. You believe the LXX calls Nisan 15 a Sabbath. If I follow your logic you say the Pentateuch has all plurals, therefore...what? Nisan 15 was not a Sabbath?

    The Crucifixion Not Friday

    AI has one obvious error. The seventh day is not a Sabbath. The Sabbath remembers the seventh day. Earliest observance would be the 14th day. Depending on the number of days you include in a month, Nisan 10 was a Sabbath...or Nisan 15 was a Sabbath. This follows from the fact the 15th of the...

    The Crucifixion Not Friday

    "The issue is that I've never seen anyone offer evidence that the first day of Unleavened Bread was considered or referred to as a Sabbath irrespective of the day of the week it's on at the time the New Testament was written." The Septuagint translation of Leviticus states the waving of the...

    If son of Barachias was known to be a mistake, that is someone mistakenly added it and correct manuscripts circulated, why didn't someone fix it? Why was it allowed to remain so that it is in every manuscript we have? It is difficult to understand how one scribe could make a mistake copying...

    The Crucifixion Not Friday

    There are two inaccuracies. 1. Passover is observed on Nisan 14. The Jewish calendar is luni-solar. The months are based on the cycle of the moon so 12-months will come up short of a solar year. To keep the annual calendar in alignment with the solar, they would add a 13th month as needed. In...

    Passover is observed according to the annual calendar. Therefore, it will not be on the same day of the week every year. Similar to how we observe Christmas, it will be on a different day of the week the next year.

    The Crucifixion Not Friday

    First, the term in Greek is πάσχα, pascha and it should be translated as Passover, the day of the crucifixion, not the day of resurrection. The King James Version renders πάσχα as Easter because the translators did not believe Peter would be executed on the day after the Passover, Nisan 15 which...

    The Crucifixion Not Friday

    IF the Jews used inclusive reckoning how did they manage to correctly observe the Sabbath? The resurrection occurred during the Feast of Unleavened Bread, which was to last 7-days. How did they manage to correctly observe 7-days of Unleavened Bread if they counted some of the days inclusively...
