The Holy Spirit inspired the unknown author of Hebrews to write "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." (Chapter 11, verse 1)
In the 24th chapter of Saint Luke's Gospel you will find the account of Cleopas talking with Christ on the Sunday that Christ was resurrected. Unaware that he was talking with Christ, Cleopas reported the crucifixion as being three days in the past (verse 21.) As there is no account of Christ correcting Cleopas it seems reasonable that Cleopas was correct in his reporting. If Cleopas had been wrong in his reporting surely Christ would have corrected him.
Again, I ask, can you point to a single Bible verse that shows this to be in error?
Wait, isn't it you and your Holy Blog that rely on some interpretation of the Jewish Calendar and hold to Jewish customs (for example, Jewish Sabbath?)
What part of Judaism recognizes the New Testament book of Mark as authoritative?
Am I correct in reporting that you cannot find a Bible verse that refutes Mark 16:9's statement that Jesus was resurrected on Sunday?
I think it speaks volumes about the lack of validity of your argument when asked to defend your view Biblically you copy and paste part of a blog called "11 Irrefutable Proofs that Jesus' Resurrection Sunday was Wrong"
Is it your position that "11 Irrefutable Proofs" replaces the Bible as your source of theological truth?
The Bible says the resurrection happened on Sunday. Your source of "truth" says that the Bible is wrong. Everyone has a choice of which to believe &&''&&&:
You are the modern Jew the Jews rejected Jesus for the religion. Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
So you see
I'm not the only one that sees the lies half-truths fables traditions and false interpretation in the Christian Religion.Was Jesus crucified on Passover? Yes or No
The answer is Yes . Read your Bible. ALWAYS find TRUTH not religious interpretation.

mhj, I could not help but notice that you failed to provide a single Bible verse to back up any of your assertions. Why is that?
The Bible says in Mark 16:9, that Jesus rose on Sunday yet you, without benefit of Biblical authority, continue to argue the resurrection happened on Saturday.
Can you provide Biblical support for any of your beliefs

I can count 3 nights and 3 days. Believe in your religion and it's interpretation. Continue in calling Jesus the LIAR.
Some may still argue that Jonah didn't simply mean three days and three nights, which is equivalent to 72 hours.
So, let's see what our Savior, Himself, said about the length of a day in John 11:9:
9 Jesus answered, "Are there not twelve hours in the day? If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world.
Christ said that there are 12 hours in a day. So, there are 12 hours in a night. Therefore, 3 days and 3 nights give us 72 hours!
That's a mathematical equation that even kids in elementary can solve.
Thus, we must stop rationalizing that Jesus was resurrected on a Sunday because it doesn't really add up to 72 hours
There are 72 hours in three days and three nights. However, if you believe that Christ was entombed just before the sunset of Friday and was resurrected on Sunday before sunrise, then you are mistaken.
Some religious leaders would defend Jesus' resurrection Sunday by saying that a part of the day would constitute one whole day. So, in essence, they were saying that Friday is already counted as day 1, Saturday as day 2, and Sunday as day 3.
Right?
Well, I'm afraid the answer is no.
Let's read again what Jesus said in Matthew 12:38-40:
38 Then some of the scribes and Pharisees answered, saying, "Teacher, we want to see a sign from You."
39 But He answered and said to them, "An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and no sign will be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah. 40 For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
As you can see, the length of time for Christ to be in the tomb would be the same as the length of time when Jonah was in the belly of the big fish.
We read Jonah 1:17:
17 Now the LORD had prepared a great fish to swallow Jonah. And Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights
. The annual festivals may or may not fall on Saturday. In fact, most of the time, they don't.
So, which Sabbath was Luke pertaining to when he wrote Luke 23:50-54?
John 19:31 gives us the answer:
31 Therefore, because it was the Preparation Day, that the bodies should not remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a high day), the Jews asked Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.
That high day was the first day of the Unleavened Bread, one of God's Holy Days.
How do we know? For one, remember that Jesus Christ just kept the Passover (Matthew 26:26-30). Passover is kept just before the Days of Unleavened Bread.
mhj, I could not help but notice that you failed to provide a single Bible verse to back up any of your assertions. Why is that?

You are Free to believe in whatever you want. You hypocrite Christian Religion would rather call Jesus a liar than find TRUTH..
For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. Question: How can you fit three days and three nights from Friday afternoon to Sunday morning? Answer: You can't. Doing elementary math, you get only a day and a h the traditional view of Christ's resurrection: Friday night - 1 night Saturday morning - 1 day Saturday evening - 1 night If you want to be more lenient, at most you only get 2 nights and 1 day. Sunday isn't counted as we know it was still dark that the tomb was discovered empty.
-----
Jesus was Resurrected on the Sabbath Day before sunset. JEWS LAW no travel on the Sabbath Day. Mary came to the tomb as quick as she could. She saw his empty TOMB. On the first day surprise HE'S RESURRECTED because he was already RESURRECTED on His Day the Sabbath Day.
"When Jesus rose early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had driven seven demons."
New Living Translation (Mark 16:9)
"After Jesus rose from the dead early on Sunday morning, the first person who saw him was Mary Magdalene, the woman from whom he had cast out seven demons."
English Standard Version (Mark 16:9)
"Now when he rose early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, from whom he had cast out seven demons."
Complete Jewish Bible (Mark 16:9)
"When Yeshua rose early Sunday, he appeared first to Miryam of Magdala, from whom he had expelled seven demons."
Worldwide English New Testament (Mark 16:9)
"Jesus rose early on the first day of the week. He showed himself first to Mary Magdalene. Jesus had driven seven bad spirits out of her."
Is there any recognized translation of the Bible that has a verse that says that Jesus rose from the dead on Saturday? I could not find one.
New International Version "No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.
New Living Translation "No one can serve two masters. For you will hate one and love the other; you will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and be enslaved to money.
English Standard Version "No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money.
