Well ours begins at midnight, the midpoint between dusk and dawn. When you count a day from dusk to dusk, the daytime follows the nighttime. So 15 Nisan was on "Friday evening", meaning, c. 7:30 PM, just based on the 2025 calendar, if we take 2025 to be a typical year, because that's about...

But you've heard of it beginning at dusk. So you can imagine it. It's just the inverse.

Which is basically the problem with autocracy and dictatorships—nothing can stop them from caprice. We have defenses against autocracy in our Constitution,¹ as long as we the People don't give up the ghost in terms of morality. Our rights are only secured by us. Which means who we elect as...

The surprising thing, if you're right, is something you bolded above, "false brethren". That part is surprising. Because under Mid Acts, if Mid Acts is true, then these aren't false brethren, but flesh-and-blood relatives of Christ and all the Apostles, who are under and practicing the New...

ofc James says faith saves, and only faith too, which makes Lutherans and their relatives happy. Why is James (the cousin of the Lord) even writing about faith at all? Is it because some descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob were under the impression that the New Covenant was about believing...

Do you think Palm Sunday was 10 Nisan? Also the following is probably what you mean by "timeline ... from the gospel of John ... appears to conflict with the other gospels' timeline"? $$ Mr 14:12 And the first day of unleavened bread, when they killed the passover, his disciples said unto him...

But I do. You do seem to be confused but it's understandable since we typically think of days as starting with daytime instead of nighttime.

From dusk to dusk is a day, according to ancient Judean tradition. For most of us, it's from dawn to dawn. (Also appears to me that in Genesis one, it's also from dawn to dawn, but whatever.) So based on this division it happened during the x's on Friday. In our division, where a day begins...

15 Nisan began on the night in which He was betrayed. In modern parlance it was Thursday night, but according to thinking the evening comes first followed by the day, they would have said the night in which He was betrayed was Friday night, followed by Friday day. We would call that Thursday...

Why give Putin what he wants? Europeans descend from people who couldn't stop two World wars from starting in the conventional era of warfare. In the nuclear era, so far so good, but we Americans descend from people who fought, stopped and won two World wars which started in Europe. The way...

I was thinking along the same lines, but the thing is that they ate the Passover the night in which He was betrayed, meaning the Passover lambs had already been killed by then. Given they counted a day's beginning at nightfall, then that would make the night in which He was betrayed 15 Nisan...

Why did you say there were two Sabbaths that week?

Don't you agree that the seder meal was consumed the first evening of Passover, which was treated like a Sabbath?

Still pondering this one, as there doesn't appear to be any standard, authoritative definition for 'Conservative.' aCW was right about one thing, conservatives differ from libertarians (not the political party but the political ideology) in matters of Let's Get Blasted Together, xorn...

Canadians are all upset over tariffs. Here's the deal. You don't need to buy the cow if you get the milk for free, and President Trump's starting to charge for the milk now. So, Canada, if you want to continue getting the milk for free, you need to tie the knot with us, and make an honest...

And OP was answered $$ 1Co 11:23 For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the [same] night in which he was betrayed took bread:

$$ Lu 14:28 For which of you, intending to build a tower, sitteth not down first, and counteth the cost, whether he have [sufficient] to finish [it]? $$ Lu 14:29 Lest haply, after he hath laid the foundation, and is not able to finish [it], all that behold [it] begin to mock him, $$ Lu 14:30...

There were two Sabbaths but the first one was the night in which He was betrayed, Thursday evening, the first day of Passover, the night the seder was consumed, the night He instituted the Eucharist, the night of the Last Supper. The second Sabbath was just the regular Sabbath, the seventh day...

Figure He passes 3 PM on Good Friday. Roll back the clock 27 hours. Noon on Thursday, before the night in which He was betrayed.
