OK, that's it. I don't know what's going on here. What I do know is that I'm outa here.

Either you're just messin' with me, or "What we have here is a failure to communicate".

If by "in modern terms" you mean a midnight to midnight calendar day, on which night did the Lord's Supper take place - during the first night of Wednesday or during the second night of Wednesday?

What part of the calendar day are you calling Thursday evening?

Are you using a midnight - to midnight calendar day?

I've got to say that that is the most outside of the box try at explaining the issue that I have heard. But that wouldn't work because it would add up to 4 nights.

How does that explain the lack of a third night?

Ok, since we can't agree on when a calendar day starts with regard to discussions about happenings in the first century, we'll just have to leave it at that. However, I do have a question about one of your comments, i.e., "So that puts Sunday on 16 Nisan, the third day, counting 14 Nisan as...

I understand you. What I don't understand is why you want to observe the goings on of the first century using the nomenclature - as you call it - of during the present time instead of the nomenclature during the time of when they actually happened. But which Thursday night of Thursday - the...

Oh, I am JR. I would like to learn the truth with regard to when the Lord's Supper took place - at the beginning of the calendar day or during the afternoon of the calendar day.

And that is why your point belongs in a different topic.

Because Thursday night 2000 years ago, which is what we are talking about, occupied the first half of the calendar day. This topic is simply asking on what part of Thursday did the Lord's Supper take place.

Actually, it doesn't because the speaker on your link doesn't believe in a Maundy Thursday. This topic is directed to those that do.

I took that to mean that since you didn't believe in a Friday crucifixion, the day that is connected with Maundy Thursday which is what this topic is about, that you realized that the bringing a Thursday crucifixion into the topic would be trying to hijack it with your own agenda.

Ah, good. You finally get it.

Sure it is. As I said in post #30, this topic is directed to those who believe in a Maundy/Holy Thursday. You don't.

Of course, that's how it was during the Messiah's time. Sure. What's your point with regard to my question, though? What time system - you call it division - does a new calendar day start at dawn.

In what division does a new calendar 24 hour day begin at dawn? I've never heard that one before.

When I wrote in the OP, "Does anyone who is familiar with Maundy Thursday..." I should have written, "Does anyone who believes in Maundy Thursday...." Since you don't, this topic does not apply to you. As for the rest of your comments, I don't understand them.

I'm getting confused here. so let me try this: First let me say that this topic is based on the idea that a calendar day is defined as a period of time between sunsets. Thursday------------Friday-----------Saturday...
