Sun darkening .. on the day of the Passover..

Passover always fell on a full moon, it was impossible to have a solar eclipse at Passover, for solar eclipses can occur only at the time of the new moon (that is, when no moon appears in the sky at night). Likewise, eclipses of the moon are seen only at the time of the full moon. And so, while there have been lunar eclipses at Passover on occasion throughout history, there has never been a natural solar eclipse on that day.

nobody said anything about a solar eclipse.

we are discussing a lunar eclipse.

Wow. I cant believe this never occurred to me before.​

first the way the hebrews measured time was as follows:

night (the day begins with sunset):
Code:
12th hour  6pm, first watch  (sunset)
 3rd hour  9pm, second watch
 6th hour 12am[midnight], third watch
 9th hour  3am, fourth watch, [bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse] crow (Mark 13:35)
day:
Code:
12th hour  6am (sunrise)
 3rd hour  9am
 [color=red][COLOR="Red"]6th hour 12pm [noon][/COLOR][/color]
 [COLOR="red"]9th hour  3pm[/COLOR]
.
Mark 15:33
And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour. .. it was the sun that darkened ... lunar eclipses happen at night... http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2387125,00.asp

We are still having the urgency of getting Yeshua down from the cross before sabbath rest starts..

Mark 15:42-43 (KJV)
42And now when the even was come, because it was the preparation, that is, the day before the sabbath, 43Joseph of Arimathaea, an honourable counsellor, which also waited for the kingdom of God, came, and went in boldly unto Pilate, and craved the body of Jesus.

Mark 15:42-43 (KJV)
42And now when the even was come, because it was the preparation, that is, the day before the sabbath, 43Joseph of Arimathaea, an honourable counsellor, which also waited for the kingdom of God, came, and went in boldly unto Pilate, and craved the body of Jesus.

if you had read the op (as I told you to do) you would have seen that i gave a link to the interlinear so you can see what it actually says in the original greek

27 Biblos Interlinear Bible
15 Biblos Interlinear Bible
ΚΑΤΑ ΛΟΥΚΑΝ 23 Biblos Interlinear Bible

it actually says that the evening had already come and day was about to dawn.
I read it three times. and do not see at the time of the darkness when Yeshua died.. that evening had already come and day was about to dawn...

When it was evening, there came a rich man from Arimathea, named Joseph, who himself had also become a disciple of Jesus.

King James Bible
When the even was come, there came a rich man of Arimathaea, named Joseph, who also himself was Jesus' disciple:

.. again.. the even/evening... end of one day and the beginning of another... back to the sunset..

Mark 15:38-42
King James Version (KJV)
38And the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom. 39And when the centurion, which stood over against him, saw that he so cried out, and gave up the ghost, he said, Truly this man was the Son of God. 40There were also women looking on afar off: among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome; 41(Who also, when he was in Galilee, followed him, and ministered unto him;) and many other women which came up with him unto Jerusalem.

42And now when the even was come, because it was the preparation, that is, the day before the sabbath,

Here we have the Lord on the cross dying [time when everything went dark]... and now dead before "even" or "evening".. sunset

they were never that anal retentive about sabbath laws.

sabbath laws never forbade doing necessary work on the sabbath.

they regarded this whole affair as a threat to their national security.
they would have done whatever was necessary.

It is not necesary to enter a discussion of what the jew were aloud to do in sabbath. The question is if Jesus was put in the sepulcre on sabbath before daybrake, or by dayend before sabbath started.

Mark 15:42; Luke 23:54 and John 19:42 are clear. Jesus was put in the sepulcer the the day before the sabbath.

pro-sabbath is obviously a greek translation of a hebrew word.

"fore" is a common part of many hebrew words and it can mean the "fore part of"

pro-sabbath would then mean the fore part of the sabbath.
presumably this would mean the night part of the sabbath since the hebrew day starts at sunset.

thats speculative.
I wouldnt bet one way or the other on it.
just tossing it out there as a possibility.

that is your position.
I disagree.

it is also Mark position
beacuse it was the preparation, the day before the sabbath

it is also Luke position
and that day was the preparation, and the sabbath drew on

it is also the opinion of John
because of the jew´s preparation day

Offcourse you desagree. Only christians believe in the Bible. You believ in the Zodiac, Astrology and a letter from Pilates. And you are so ashamed that did erase your OP and hide your original OP.
