Any particular reason for adding an "s" at the end of Revelaton?

While not mentioned by name, Mary is mentioned in 8 verses in John. Also, she is sort of alluded to in Galatians 4:4. Just as a side note, it might be interesting see what scripture has with regard to the Messiah's attitude toward her. There are only 3 times mentioned where He spoke to her...

Actually, as far as scripture is concerned, there are only two times mentioned with regard to anybody getting together on the first (day) of the week - John 20:19 and Acts 20:7. There is never any mention of them ever again being together on the first. The John reference has them together in a...

I guess I was thinking that the vision occurred after Galatians 2:14.

Is the first time or the second time toward the dawn that they went to the tomb?

Dense me, duh, I've been trying to figure out the reason you were suggesting that Peter went back a second time to the tomb when I finally noticed that it wasn't Peter to whom you were referring but rather to Mary and why she went back a third time. But with this new understanding I have to ask...

So, then the Matthew, Mark and Luke accounts are all refering to the second time Mary went to the tomb? If so, why do you suppose Peter went back again to the tomb when he had already been there previously (Luke 24:12)?

I needed to add the following, but the edit function had expired before I could edit the post #11: If so, something doesn't seem quite right with that senario. Some have suggested that she didn't believe what the angel had told her. But if so, why does Matthew 28:8 says that she left the...

PaulThomson, So, you're suggesting that between John 20:1 and 20:2, Mary, after seeing that the stone had been removed from the entrance to the tomb, and before she left to go to the disciples (verse 2) where she told them that the Messiah had been taken from the tomb and that she didn't know...

Thanks for taking the time and effort. With regard, though, to numbers 1 through 6, with 7 becoming 6, I'm having some trouble with your placements of the John 20:1-10 reference. Also, I couldn't find any versions which have verse 1 saying "...and they saw that the stone had been taken away...

Sometime when you're sitting around thinking deep thoughts, and you need a break, you might want to give a loosly based on Dan Barker's Easter Challenge a try. Taking Matthew 28:1-10, Mark 16:1-10, Luke 24:1-12 and John 20:1-18 and using every verse from the above, intermingle them into a...

Did Peter lie in his Acts vision when he said he had never eaten unclean animals?

There are probably at least a few hundred prayers being said around the globe in a multitude of different languages at any given moment. I always wonder how they are all kept separate in order to make the decisions for any actions to be taken with regard to each one of them. And of course, they...

Does He count the start of a new calendar day when the following edge of the Sun disk disappears below the horizon? And does He count the start of the daytime of the new calendar day when the leading edge of the Sun disk appears above the horizon?

Yes, that is what posthuman and I just said. BTW, what was your reason for quoting "a worldly method of counting days"?
