Christmas Gifts

[Yeshua HaDerekh]

The wording is literal.

It is a comparison He is using. ON THE THIRD DAY is literal too...

 

[Yeshua HaDerekh]

In all your debating, how do you guys know that the weekly Sabbath and the Special Sabbath, were not concurrent that week end? They do not have to be consecutive, or is it just being assumed?

For that day was a high day...yes, it was the 15th on that Sabbath day.

Christ Is Firstfruits Of The Resurrection


The Feast of Unleavened Bread is a feast that is often mistaken for Passover. Passover is one 24 hour period, while the Feast of Unleavened Bread lasts for seven days. The Feast of Unleavened Bread is also a rest day where no work is to be done. That would also exclude attending a grave site to prepare a body on the Feast of Unleavened Bread. Passover was always on the Seventh Day of Rest, Preparation Day was always the day before, and the Feast of Unleavened Bread was always the day after the Sabbath Day of Rest and the Passover. A biblical definition of firstfruits would include the first of most anything that come from the ground or animals. The people would bring a ceremonial sheaf (bundle) of grain from the field, for the wave offering. The offering was a ceremonial bundle offering, and not a bringing of the harvest from the field, to the temple.

The biblical calendar is a 364 day a year calendar, which places the holidays on the same day of the week every year. When Christ was hung on the stake, both calendars were in use; the Biblical Calendar, and the Civil Hebrew Calendar. Which calendar do you think Christ and the disciples used; the Biblical Calendar, or the Civil Hebrew Calendar?


All three of these holidays involved firstfruit offerings at the Temple.

Passover was in the early spring, and it included firstfruits from the first harvest of barley.

Shavuot was in the late spring, and it included firstfruits from the wheat harvest. Among the many different offerings given, was a "wave offering" of two loaves of leavened bread. This was also a firstfruits offering.

Sukkot was in the fall, and it was the final harvest which included firstfruits of olives and grapes.

The feast day of Unleavened Bread was always on a Sunday when using the Biblical Calendar. That particular Sunday was also a REST DAY where no work was to be done. The women would not have attended his body that day because it was against the law.

Luke 23:56
Then they went home and prepared spices and perfumes. But they rested on the Sabbath in obedience to the commandment.


The Passover and the Festival of Unleavened Bread

Exodus 12:16
On the first day hold a sacred assembly, and another one on the seventh day. Do no work at all on these days, except to prepare food for everyone to eat; that is all you may do.

1 Corinthians 15:20
But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.

1 Corinthians 15:23
But each in turn: Christ, the firstfruits; then, when he comes, those who belong to him.

The Firstfruits offering was on the day after Unleavened Bread.

Unleavened Bread Firstfruits Sheaf Wave

Leviticus 23:6 On the fifteenth day of that month the Lord’s Festival of Unleavened Bread begins; for seven days you must eat bread made without yeast. 7 On the first day hold a sacred assembly and do no regular work. 8 For seven days present a food offering to the Lord. And on the seventh day hold a sacred assembly and do no regular work.’”
Offering the Firstfruits
9 The Lord said to Moses, 10 “Speak to the Israelites and say to them: ‘When you enter the land I am going to give you and you reap its harvest, bring to the priest a sheaf of the first grain you harvest. 11 He is to wave the sheaf before the Lord so it will be accepted on your behalf; the priest is to wave it on the day after the Sabbaths.

First fruits was observed the third day after Passover and the second day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread.

The resurrection was the first part of the week, not the first day.

 

[Yeshua HaDerekh]

First fruits was observed the third day after Passover and the second day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread.

The resurrection was the first part of the week, not the first day.

14th Friday (day 1), 15th Saturday Sabbath (day 2) and 1st day of unleavened, Sunday 16th (day 3) firstfruits and resurrection!

 

[CherubRam]

14th Friday (day 1), 15th Saturday Sabbath (day 2) and 1st day of unleavened, Sunday 16th (day 3) firstfruits and resurrection!

Friday evening to Saturday evening is one day, Saturday evening to Sunday evening is two days, and Sunday evening to Monday evening is three days. Feast of Unleavened Bread is a Sabbath rest day also.

Quote: "the priest is to wave it on the day after the Sabbaths."

 

[Heber Book List]

It was Preparation Day before the weekly Sabbath began.

That doesn't answer my question. Concurrent means 'at the same time'. What makes you so certain that both Shabbats - the weekly and the Passover - could not be on the same day?

 

[HARK!]

That is complete rubbish. We KNOW that Yeshua died on Friday and resurrected on Sunday (after sunset on the Sabbath). We have 2 witnesses on the road to Emmaus to prove it, why do you think that story is in the Bible? Yeshua did not correct them when they said that it was Sunday, the 3rd day since the events occurred. The 14th was a Friday (the preparation), Shabbat AND the 1st day of unleavened (the 15th) was on Saturday and Yom HaBikkurim was on Sunday (the 16th). He rose ON THE THIRD DAY.

I did not say that. The 14th was the weekly Sabbath, and it was also the Passover Festival.

I was trying to clarify what you are saying.

 

[Yeshua HaDerekh]

Friday evening to Saturday evening is one day, Saturday evening to Sunday evening is two days, and Sunday evening to Monday evening is three days. Feast of Unleavened Bread is a Sabbath rest day also.

No it wasn't, Saturday was the 15th

The 14th began Friday evening and ended Saturday evening.

 

[Yeshua HaDerekh]

The 14th began Friday evening and ended Saturday evening.

No, the 14th (the day Yeshua was crucified) began Thursday evening at sunset (Last Supper) and ended Friday evening just after sunset (He was buried just before sunset)...

Leviticus 23:5
The Lord’s Passover begins at twilight on the fourteenth day of the first month.


John 19:31
Now it was the day of Preparation, and the next day was to be a special Sabbath. Because the Jewish leaders did not want the bodies left on the crosses during the Sabbath, they asked Pilate to have the legs broken and the bodies taken down.

We seem to have strayed from 'Christmas Gifts'!

I wonder what the OP thinks of us??

Yes, Friday was the day of preparation for the Sabbath (the 14th, when the lambs were killed). The next day, Saturday, was indeed a special Sabbath, the 15th.

The names of the days of the week in Greek...Κυριακή (Lord's day), Sunday. Δευτέρα (Second day), Monday. Τρίτη (Third day), Tuesday. Τετάρτη (Fourth day), Wednesday. Πέμπτη (Fifth day), Thursday. Παρασκευή ("Preparation"), Friday. Σάββατο ("Sabbath"), Saturday

Friday the 13th, Yahshua was crucified on the stake. The 14th was the Lords day, the weekly Sabbath Rest. The 15th was the special Sabbath Rest, were no work was to be done.
