       Mr E,
       re:  "Does that help?"
       Well since none of your comments provide examples which show
       that it was common to forecast or say that a daytime or a night
       time would be involved with an event when no part of a daytime
       or no part of a night time could occur, then I'm afraid that it
       doesn't.
       [/quote]
       I'm sure your comment makes sense to you.
       Matthew 16-- Red sky at night, sailor's delight.  Red sky at
       morning, sailor's warning.  (a common forecast daytime or night
       time saying with a biblical example provided).   8)
       If you could ask a clearer question, you might get a clearer
       answer.

       A few thoughts toward your quest-
       Maybe you've considered these already in some form or fashion as
       it seems you've puzzled over this for a long time.  I suspect
       that you might be trying to reconcile the apparent discrepancy
       of "what Jesus said" with what folks have come to believe to be
       the case concerning the resurrection timeline.  Could Jesus have
       said something inaccurate?  Sure.  He was human.  People say
       things loosely like that all the time without anyone calling
       them a liar.
       Could he have been speaking idiomatically?  I think you've
       covered that a hundred times already... again- Sure.
       Or-- he could have been 100% accurate in what he said and simply
       our understanding of the events isn't 100% complete.  If so,
       then there is no contradiction other than in our heads.
       I think you've considered this too and seemed to have excluded
       it from the conversation, but the 3 days (yom) could even
       pertain to the 30 years he spent in Israel (the heart of the
       earth)  or perhaps the three years that 'the Christ' spent in
       the heart of Jesus (the earth man) during his time of ministry.
       -and- it could be all of these things.

       Mr E,
       re: "I'm sure your comment makes sense to you."
       Your sureness is right on. I do indeed understand my comment.
       re:  "Matthew 16-- Red sky at night, sailor's delight.  Red sky
       at morning, sailor's warning.  (a common forecast daytime or
       night time saying with a biblical example provided)."
       I don't see how that shows an example of where a daytime or a
       night time was forecast or said to be involved with an event
       when no part of a daytime or no part of a night time could
       occur.
       re: "If you could ask a clearer question, you might get a
       clearer answer."
       I don't know how it could be anymore clear. What is there about
       it that you don't understand?
       re:  "I suspect that you might be trying to reconcile the
       apparent discrepancy of "what Jesus said" with what folks have
       come to believe to be the case concerning the resurrection
       timeline."
       No, not for the purpose of this topic.
       re:  "-and- it could be all of these things."
       Perhaps, but not for the purpose of this topic.

       No?
       How about this?  'The stomach of the earth'...?  It's the same
       word in Hebrew....  The three days and three nights that Jonah
       was in the belly, or stomach, or "heart" of the fish.  And this
       'place' that Jonah found himself, he calls "Sheol"  -in other
       words, there is 'an-other' word to express the same concept.
       Heart, belly, stomach, Sheol, underworld, place of death, even
       womb.... or grave, or tomb.... you pick.
       And we know that Jesus was talking about the same thing because
       he explicitly states he's talking about the very same thing...
       (Matt 12)
       --for just as JONAH WAS THREE DAYS AND THREE NIGHTS IN THE BELLY
       OF THE SEA MONSTER, so will the Son of Man be three days and
       three nights in the heart of the earth.
       I don't think it's so much a matter of timing, as much as it is
       about location, location, location.  Hosea 6 prophesied that the
       people would be revived after two days.... on the third day.
       It could be as simple a comparison as if we were telling a story
       and said something like "a few days later"  or "sometime later"
       - as opposed to a specific time such as if you were to say-
       "later that same day" or "the very next day."
       Why do you ask?  What significance do you apportion to this?
       [/quote]
       Hos 6:2..(KJV) "After two days will he revive us: in the third
       day he will raise us up, and we shall live in his sight."
       A Prophecy through His own words....As one day of the Lord is to
       us a thousand years, two days of being buried in the grave will
       fall away to being resurrected in the third day. Notice it says
       in the third day. This is likely a reference to the Rapture that
       can happen at any time now that two days or two thousand years
       have been fulfilled.
       Having said this, time is very short for the End of days is
       nearer to the beginning of the end.
       **
       The three days and three nights in the grave are for real in
       that the crucifixion happened around 3 PM on a Wendnesday
       afternoon and was buried before 6PM, the beginning of Thursday,
       A Feast Day which was considered a Sabbath. Therefore, nothing
       could happen on this day even travel to the grave site or more
       than 1/4 mile away. He did indeed arise on the third day after
       three days and three nights.
       Thanks for listening

       Actually, it happened around 9 AM in the morning.  And the idea
       of a Wednesday crucifixion would be an issue for a different
       topic.

       NO, it would not be a different topic.  It is within the scope
       of the Crucifixion, Burial and Resurrection of Jesus Christ,
       otherwise known as the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
       Why do you say 9 am in the morning and not on Wednesday? one of
       us is wrong!
