John 19:31
The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day, (for that sabbath day was an high day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away

Ive heard those before but does scripture say the Passover feast day the day before the sabbath doesn't the sabbath fall on a Saturday? I don't know I guess the sabbath could have been on a Friday back in those days
There were two Sabbaths the week of Jesus' crucifixion, one
the regular weekly Sabbath, and the other the Passover Sabbath.

that wasn't in the morning was it? Doesn't scripture say anything about it?

So Jesus died on the cross at 3pm and laid into the earth before 6pm that day you don't agree? What the time Jesus was buried laid into the earth?
sure it does...did I say it was in the morning ?
I don't know about being buried at 6 pm, but it was at the setting of the sun...and 3 full days later He rose at the setting of the sun...which would be BEFORE sunday the first day of the week !

Please im not being rude or anything but this false concept of Jesus being buried either underground or in a cave or something is fable. jesus body was placed in a tomb made of stone above the ground, in the cemetery near the skull mount.
I am quoting scripture when I use the word 'burial as per 1Cor 15v3,4. We all know he was not buried in the ground.

There were 2 Sabbath days and 2 preparation days in the week Jesus died and this is causing confusion among christians who have no understanding of God's Holy days.

This is not referring to the weekly Sabbath nor to friday as the preparation but to the 1st day of unleavened Bread which was a high Sabbath and its own prep day on which Jesus died.....nothing to do with the week-end.

Psalm 104:19, "You appointed the moon for setting the appointed times. The sun knows its going down."


appointed timesis word #H4150 - Original Word: מוֹעֵד, Part of Speech: Noun Masculine, Transliteration: moed, Phonetic Spelling: (mo-ade'), Short Definition: meeting, Word Origin from yaad, Definition - appointed time, place, or meeting


Psalms 74:4, “Your adversaries have roared In the midst of Your appointments; They have set up their own signs as signs.”


1 Thessalonians 5:1, "But concerning the times and the seasons, brothers, you have no need that I should write to you."
The appointed time of reformation had come. The cerimoinal laws that were used as signs and and types met their fulfillment. The veil is rent.

Ceremonial law govern ceremonies. They are used to preach the gospel not seen and are not moral laws that govern morals . We are not to judge one another in respect to the shadows of shadow worshipers .in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he has not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,

Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ. Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,And not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together, increaseth with the increase of God.Col 2:16

Not directly or explicitly, but indirectly or implicity Christ rose on the FIRST DAY OF THE WEEK.

According to His own prophecy, Christ would remain in the heart of the earth for three days and three nights. He was crucified on Nisan 14 (Wednesday) but He was entombed on Thursday [which began at sunset that day, and all these days must be reckoned from sunset to sunset (Hebrew reckoning)]. So all of Thursday, Friday, and Saturday was the time of His entombment. Therefore any time AFTER sunset on Saturday, Christ arose from the dead. Therefore it was on the first day of the week, hence we have "the LORD'S DAY" in Scripture.
What makes you think Jesus was entombed the day after He was crucified ? Does not scripture say they had to be taken down before the Sabbath ? burial had to be rushed so there was no time for anointing 'as the Sabbath drew on'...meaning it was still the day of preparation....and 3 days and 3 nights makes it 'at the setting of the sun on the weekly Sabbath.
You are ADDING time when you make it AFTER sunset on the Sabbath.

When was the corrupted body of Christ replaced with the incorruptible .And how did the new body differ from the old seeing flesh and blood as rudiments of this corrupted world could never enter the kingdom of God the incorruptible..

For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell on sleep, and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption: But he, whom God raised again, saw no corruption.Act 13:36

Did the new flesh serve it purpose and we no longer look to the flesh seeing God is not a man as us. He remains supernatural without mother and father, beginning of Spirit life or end thereof. ? Are we to expect another demonstration of the actual work of God as the lamb slain from the foundation of the world?

Scripture seems to inform us other wise.

2Corinthians 5:16 Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh,
yet now henceforth know we him no more.

Scripture informs us no more? Has he come in the flesh, if so is there another promise of a demonstration seeing God is not a man as us? Does the verse below apply to a second time, will the veil be rent the next time? Has he come or not?

Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.1John 4:2

Would the Jews who confess not Jesus has come in the flesh be considered antichrists who follow another manner of spirit?

Indeed and these were on the same day, Saturday the sabbath.

You are correct, though at sundown Friday starts a new day in Jewish tradition,

everyday will end and a new day will start at a certain time, here in America the new day starts at 12am night time and runs to the next 12am night time.

Judaism a new day starts at 6pm and runs to the next day 6pm

This is not referring to the weekly Sabbath nor to friday as the preparation but to the 1st day of unleavened Bread which was a high Sabbath and its own prep day on which Jesus died.....nothing to do with the week-end.
Passover feast is only one 24 hour period while Feast of Unleavened Bread lasts for seven days

No where in scripture says there was 2 Saturday's and two Friday's. The Sabbath day is the six day falls on a Saturday. Yes two things can be honored on the same day a regular sabbath as well as the high sabbath.

If the Jews did have a high sabbath on a Thursday, then they are in error, God rested on the seventh day and it is called the sabbath. Can't move around that day as to honor a annual sabbath the high sabbath, that's completely wrong doctrine, if someone calls it a high sabbath or what ever, better have it on the seventh day.

Seems to me you are not very familiar with scripture. With GOD every day starts at 'sunset for everyone, every nation. It is only in our secular world we use 'modern timing.

I am fully aware of this having kept the fests for more than 30 years in the past....before God showed me to now keep them in spirit.

Certainly there are times when there is a 'double Sabbath but it could not have happened then when a number of certain events took place 'in between the 2 Sabbaths. It's back to study for you my friend ! I have given you a 'hint what to look for !
