Chronology of the Passion Week - The Timing of Christ's Death, Resurrection, & Ascension.

this isn't a dividing issue...

Sorry, but again I have to differ with you tremendously.
The 'issue' divides Seventh Day Sabbatharians; and it divides them from Sunday believing Christians.
It requires external, non-Biblical <evidence>; it makes the Scripture so to speak redundant and superfluous.
It demands suppression of the simple and unambiguous and 100% clear Bible words and facts (as you can see).
It casts a reflection of Jesus' integrity for so often having quoted and referred to the God-given and therefore eschatological imperative whole and wholeness of the "three days", "on the third" of which "Christ according to the Scriptures" HAD TO rise from the dead and grave "on the Sabbath" -- "the third day" which HAD TO be "the day after the Preparation ... and late on the Sabbath Day before the First Day of the week", because "thus it behoved / honoured the Christ". Matthew 27:62; 28:1. Sola Scriptura!

When we see a king say, "come back AFTER 3 days" and then those being told this come back ON the third day and this is acceptable to the king.... then there is some abstractness to the statements.

Ably stated, correctly! Thanks.
Compare Hosea 6 though, where (LXX) "after" is "after two days -- on the third day".

If she bought spices on Sunday morning at dark, the Scriptures would have said, the first day of the week after the Sabbath past, she went and bought spices and came unto the sepulchre. But the Scriptures do not say that. The Scriptures say that the first day of the week begins after she bought the spices.

Sorry, but you are simply wrong. There is no need <<the Scriptures would have said, the first day of the week after the Sabbath past>>. It was the First Day of the week its evening when "the Sabbath had gone through" [diagenomenou tou sabbatou] and the three women, then, "bought spices".

He was placed in tomb around 6pm(sunset) on Wednesday and at sunset on Saturday night he rose, which was considered the 1st day of the week, since a new day started at sunset and fulfilled the 3 days/3 nights. All 4 gospels said he rose early in the morning on the 1st day of the week, not at sunrise. They came at sunrise to see he was already gone.

He died @ 3pm on Wed and was placed in the grave right before sunset and rose right after sunset on 1st day of the week.
Wed 6PM-Thur 6PM= 1 night/1day
Thur 6PM-Fri 6PM= 1 night/1day
Fri 6PM-Sat 6PM= 1 night/1day


So you have 3 full days & 3 full nights. Jesus gave 1 sign and 1 sign only and it was he was going to be in the grave 3 days and 3 nights. If he wasnt in the grave 3 days & 3 nights aka Fri-Sun, HE IS NOT THE MESSIAH.

(3 days/3 nights)
14th Wednesday- Died @ 3PM and placed in grave right before sunset 6pm
15th Thursday- Sabbath(Feast of Unleavened Bread) No work allowed
16th Friday- Bought Spices to anoint the body
17th Saturday Sabbath- No work allowed & went to get more spices after the Sabbath & he Rose from the grave after sunset @ 6pm on 1st day of the week when Sabbath was over

If Jesus wasnt referring to a full 3 days and 3 nights, the best would be a Thursday
(3 days)
14th Thursday Died @ 3PM and placed in grave right before sunset 6pm
15th Friday-Sabbath(Feast of Unleavened Bread): No work allowed
16th Saturday-Sabbath: No work allowed
17th Sunday -went to get more spices after the Sabbath & Rose from the Grave after the sun went down Saturday, so this is early on the 1st day of the week.

It implies the need to understand the time of day or night correctly in John 20:1,2.

John 20:1,2 is a LITERAL, MUST!

It does not say, <<when it was yet still dark out>>...in the morning. (Jason)

It reads, "on the First Day of the week early of dark (of night) still being" [proh-i skotias eti ousehs] which is evening or dusk after sunset.
Mary's first sight of the "STONE moved away", sets all the subsequent movements during that 'Saturday' night in motion.

NO Gospel says He rose early in the morning, or, on the 1st day of the week.

Click to expand...

Jesus did NOT <<die @ 3pm on Wed>>;

He was NOT <<placed in the grave right before sunset>>; and

He did NOT rise <<right after sunset on 1st day of the week>>, simply for two reasons, 1) for the LACK of Scripture for any of these three arrogations; 2) for the ABUNDANCE of Scriptures for the fact He rose, quote, "ON THE SABBATH when there was a great earthquake ... and the angel of the Lord cast the stone away from the tomb and sat on it" in solidarity with God who when He had raised Christ from the dead, “by the exceeding greatness of his power worked and wrought and finished”, “all the works of God and rested the Seventh Day from all his works which He had done" THROUGH CHRIST IN HIS RESURRECTION FROM THE DEAD.

Jason0047 said:

Sorry, I just read and believe my Bible. It says it was dark out
(and I believe that).

Click to expand...

It does NOT. Or _your_ Bible, yes; it is to be expected it would say in the morning daybreak or as you say it, <<it was dark out>>. Because it must get the Resurrection on Sunday. Simple; simply dishonest and lying.

Jason0047 said:

a Thursday crucifixion does not even work with a nightfall to nightfall Jewish day reckoning. For the Old Testament clearly tells us that they celebrated the Weekly Passover with the days being from nightfall to nightfall.

HUH?!

Day #0. - Thursday - Jesus dies at 3:00PM and placed in the tomb at 6:00PM.
Day #1 - Friday begins - (Thursday nightfall). The 15th High Sabbath.
Day #2 - Saturday begins (Friday nightfall) the 16th - Weekly Sabbath.
Day #3 - Sunday (17th) at 3:00PM would be 72 hours exactly from Christ's death

Scripture?
NONE!

Jason0047 said:

If you were to count His being in the Earth starting with His body going into the tomb, it would be 6:00PM on Sunday. But neither 3:00PM, nor 6:00PM makes any sense because Mary and the others arrived early Sunday morning when it was still dark out.

I do not and the Scriptures do not <<count His being in the Earth starting with His body going into the tomb>>. You are presuming a FALSE supposition.
