gospel harmony

[Maite Els]

What does it say right above that?

again, you didnt read what I wrote.
I clealy say that it was a lunar eclipse

This is what i mean. You are totally wrong. You say that it was a lunar eclipse wich is one more of your multitude of mistakes. You must read the gospels you pretend harmonicing. The gospel say that the sun darknened, not the moon, but the sun. The SUN darkened.

The text does not say six hours after 3pm, it say the sixth hour.
Any how, it is not possible for a solar eclipse to be vissible by 9pm. By 9pm the Sun is no longer vissible and a solar eclipse will be not visible. Not only that, but solar eclipses only ocurred in New Moon, far from the date of the crucifixion.

I quote your harmony:
and the sun was darkened

not sure what to make of that.
sounds to me like luke was making some kind of point but I'm not sure what it was.

When you figure it out let us know. Meanwhile we must accept that the sixth hour is noon and the nith hour is 3pm.
Now try again to explain how in your harmony Jesus was crucified by 9am, but were before pilates by 12am.

 

[granpa]

Luke 23:45 for the sun stopped shining. And the curtain of the temple was torn in two.

44And it was now about the sixth hour, and a darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour, 45the sun's light failing: and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst


of course it was the suns light that failed since the moon only reflects the suns light.
It still seems to be that luke is making a point but I will leave it at that.

Luke 23:45 for the sun stopped shining. And the curtain of the temple was torn in two.

44And it was now about the sixth hour, and a darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour, 45the sun's light failing: and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst

Now we do agree that it was the Sun darkening, not the Moon.
It was from noon to 3 pm.

Next step is correcting one of the too many mistakes of your harmony.
According to your harmony Jesus were at Pilates by noon, crucified by 9am and the darkness ocurred from noon to 3pm.
How do you jump back from noon to 9am????

 

[Maite Els]

We were writing at the same time. So you stik to the lunar eclipse. Bad for you.
Let see. Jesus was before pilates by the sixth hour and was crucified by the third hour. How comes?????

thats clearly explained in the article.

No. It is not. Your article is full of mistakes and wrong statements. Perhaps you can copy paste such explanation.

 

[Maite Els]

It seems unnecesary to continue to signal all the many huge mistakes that this supossed harmony contain.
Granpa harmony going down the drain.
