Let’s
see just how many days the book of MattitYahu
speaks of from the time Yahusha died on the
14th day of the month to the time He was risen
on the first day of the week.
Mat 27:50 And Yahusha cried out again
with a loud voice, and gave up His spirit.
Yahusha
died on the 14th day of the month.
Mat
27:51 And see, the veil of the Dwelling
Place was torn in two from top to bottom, and
the earth was shaken, and the rocks were
split,
Mat 27:52 and the tombs were opened,
and many bodies of the set-apart ones who had
fallen asleep were raised,
Mat 27:53 and coming out of the tombs
after His resurrection, they went into the
set-apart city and appeared to many.
Mat 27:54 And when the captain and
those with him, who were guarding Yahusha, saw
the earthquake and all that took place, they
feared exceedingly, saying, “Truly this was
the Son of Elohim!”
Mat 27:55 And many women who followed
Yahusha from Galil, attending Him, were there,
watching from a distance,
Mat 27:56 among whom were Miryam from
Magdala, and Miryam the mother of Ya'aqob and
Yoseph, and the mother of Zabdai’s sons.
Mat 27:57 AND WHEN EVENING CAME,
there came a rich man from Ramathayim, named
Yoseph, who himself had also become a taught
one of Yahusha.
Mat 27:58 He went to Pilate and asked
for the body of Yahusha. Then Pilate commanded
the body to be given.
Mat 27:59 And having taken the body,
Yoseph wrapped it in clean linen,
Mat 27:60 and laid it in his new tomb
which he had hewn out of the rock. And he
rolled a large stone against the door of the
tomb, and went away.
Mat 27:61 And Miryam from Magdala was
there, and the other Miryam, sitting opposite
the tomb.
Yahusha
was buried on the 14th, the Preparation Day,
the Passover Day.
Mat
27:62 ON THE NEXT DAY, which was
after the preparation, the chief priests and
Pharisees gathered together to Pilate,
ON THE NEXT DAY – which was the
15th, 15 comes after 14.
Mat
27:63 saying, “Master, we remember,
while He was still alive, how that deceiver
said, ‘After three days I am raised.’
Mat 27:64 “Command, then, that the tomb
be safeguarded until the third day, lest His
taught ones come by night and steal Him away,
and should say to the people, ‘He was raised
from the dead.’ And the last deception shall
be worse than the first.”
Mat 27:65 So Pilate said to them, “You
have a watch, go, safeguard it as you know
how.”
Mat 27:66 And they went and safeguarded
the tomb, sealing the stone and setting the
watch.
This is the end of the
information concerning the 15th day of the
month.
Mat
28:1 Now after the Sabbath, toward dawn
on the first day of the week, Miryam from
Magdala and the other Miryam came to see the
tomb.
This is the 16th day of the
month, it is the day after the Sabbath and
the Sabbath is/was the day after the
Preparation: 14, 15, 16
- 14 – 6th day, preparation,
Passover festival
- 15 – 7th day, Sabbath,
Unleavened Bread festival
- 16 - 1st day, day of wave
sheaf on the morrow after the Sabbath
MattitYahu’s account only
speaks of 3 days.
Let’s see just how many days
the book of Mark speaks of from the time
Yahusha died on the 14th day of the month to
the time He was risen on the first day of
the week.
Mar
15:37 And Yahusha cried out with a loud
voice, and breathed His last.
Mar 15:38 And the veil of the Dwelling
Place was torn in two from top to bottom.
Mar 15:39 And when the captain, who was
standing opposite Him, saw that He cried out
like this and breathed His last, he said,
“Truly this Man was the Son of Elohim!”
Mar 15:40 And there were also women
watching from a distance, among whom was also
Miryam from Magdala, and Miryam the mother of
Ya'aqob the Less and of Yoseph, and Shelomah,
Mar 15:41 who also followed Him and
attended Him when He was in Galil, and many
other women who came up with Him to
Yerushalayim.
Mar 15:42 And when EVENING HAD
COME, BECAUSE IT WAS THE PREPARATION DAY,
THAT IS, THE DAY BEFORE THE SABBATH.
Mar 15:43 Yoseph of Ramathayim, a
prominent council member, who was himself
waiting for the reign of Elohim, came, boldly
went in to Pilate and asked for the body of
Yahusha.
Mar 15:44 But Pilate wondered whether
He was already dead, so summoning the captain,
he asked him if He was already dead.
Mar 15:45 And when he learned this from
the captain, he gave the body to Yoseph.
Mar 15:46 And he, having bought fine
linen, took Him down, and wrapped Him in the
linen. And he laid Him in a tomb which had
been hewn out of the rock, and rolled a stone
against the entrance of the tomb.
Mar 15:47 And Miryam from Magdala, and
Miryam the mother of Yoseph, saw where He was
laid.
Yahusha died on the 14th day of
the month, it was the Preparation day, the
day before the Sabbath.
Mar
16:1 And when the Sabbath was past,
Miryam from Magdala, and Miryam the mother of
Ya'aqob and Shelomah bought spices, to go and
anoint Him.
The Sabbath that is mentioned
here is the Sabbath that takes place on the
day after the Preparation day (14); which
means this Sabbath is the 15th. Since it
tells us the Sabbath was past:
Mar
16:2 And very early on the first day of
the week, they came to the tomb when the sun
had risen.
Mar 16:3 And they said among
themselves, “Who shall roll away the stone
from the entrance of the tomb for us?”
Mar 16:4 And looking up, they saw that
the stone had been rolled away, for it was
extremely large.
Mar 16:5 And having entered into the
tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the
right, wearing a white robe, and they were
greatly astonished.
Mar 16:6 And he said to them, “Do not
be much astonished. You seek Yahusha of
Natsareth, who was impaled. He was raised – He
is not here! See the place where they laid
Him.
This is the first day of the
week, it is the morrow after the Sabbath,
making it the 16th day of the month: 14, 15,
16
- 14 – 6th day, preparation,
Passover festival
- 15 – 7th day, Sabbath,
Unleavened Bread festival
- 16 - 1st day, day of wave
sheaf on the morrow after the Sabbath
Mark's account only speaks of
3 days.
Let’s see just how many days
the book of Luke speaks of from the time
Yahusha died on the 14th day of the month to
the time He was risen on the first day of
the week.
Luk
23:46 And crying out with a loud voice,
Yahusha said, “Father, into Your hands I
commit My spirit.” And having said this, He
breathed His last.
Luk 23:47 And the captain, seeing what
took place, praised Elohim, saying, “Truly,
this Man was righteous!”
Luk 23:48 And when all the crowds who
had gathered to that sight saw what took
place, they beat their breasts and went away.
Luk 23:49 And all those who knew Him,
and the women who followed Him from Galil,
stood at a distance, watching this.
Luk 23:50 And see, a man named Yoseph,
a council member, a good and righteous man –
Luk 23:51 he was not agreeing with
their counsel and deed – from Ramathayim, a
city of the Yehudim, who himself was also
waiting for the reign of Elohim,
Luk 23:52 he, going to Pilate, asked
for the body of Yahusha.
Luk 23:53 And taking it down, he
wrapped it in linen, and laid it in a tomb
hewn out of the rock, where no one was yet
laid.
Luk 23:54 AND IT WAS PREPARATION
DAY, AND THE SABBATH WAS APPROACHING.
Luk 23:55 And the women who had come
with Him from Galil followed after, and saw
the tomb and how His body was laid.
Luk 23:56 And having returned, they
prepared spices and perfumes. And they rested
on the Sabbath according to the command.
Yahusha died on the 14th day of
the month, it was preparation day and the
Sabbath (15th) was approaching. After they
saw how the body was laid they returned and
prepared the spices and perfumes (still the
14th) and then they rested on the Sabbath
(15th) according to the command (Exodus 20).
Luk
24:1 And on the first day of the week,
at early dawn, they came to the tomb, bringing
the spices which they had prepared,
Luk 24:2 and they found the stone
rolled away from the tomb.
Luk 24:3 And having entered, they did
not find the body of the Master Yahusha.
The first day of the week was
the day after the Sabbath; making it the
16th day of the month: 14, 15, 16
- 14 – 6th day, preparation,
Passover festival
- 15 – 7th day, Sabbath,
Unleavened Bread festival
- 16 - 1st day, day of wave
sheaf on the morrow after the Sabbath
Luke's account only speaks of
3 days.
Let’s see just how many days
the book of John speaks of from the time
Yahusha died on the 14th day of the month to
the time He was risen on the first day of
the week.
Joh
19:30 So when Yahusha took the sour wine
He said, “It has been accomplished!” And
bowing His head, He gave up His spirit.
Joh 19:31 THEREFORE, SINCE IT WAS
THE PREPARATION DAY THAT THE
BODIES SHOULD NOT REMAIN ON THE STAKE ON
THE SABBATH
Yahusha died on the 14th it was
referred to as the Preparation day and the
Sabbath was approaching.
–
for that Sabbath was a high one – the Yehud_im
asked Pilate to have their legs broken, and
that they be taken away.
Joh 19:32- Therefore the soldiers came
and broke the legs of the first, and of the
other who was impaled with Him,
Joh 19:33 but when they came to Yahusha
and saw that He was already dead, they did not
break His legs.
Joh 19:34 But one of the soldiers
pierced His side with a spear, and instantly
blood and water came out.
Joh 19:35 And he who has seen has
witnessed, and his witness is true. And he
knows that he is speaking the truth, in order
that you might believe.
Joh 19:36 For this took place in order
for the Scripture to be filled: “Not one of
His bones shall be broken.”
Joh 19:37 And again another Scripture
says, “They shall look on Him whom they
pierced.”
Joh 19:38 And after this, Yoseph of
Ramathayim, being a taught one of Yahusha, but
secretly, for fear of the Yehudim, asked
Pilate that he might take the body of Yahusha,
and Pilate gave permission. Therefore he came
and took the body of Yahusha.
Joh 19:39 And Nakdimon, who at first
came to Yahusha by night, also came, bringing
a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred
pounds.
Joh 19:40 Then they took the body of
Yahusha, and bound it in linen wrappings with
the spices, as was the habit of the Yehudim
for burial.
Joh 19:41 And at the place where He was
impaled there was a garden, and in the garden
a fresh tomb in which no one had yet been
laid.
Joh 19:42 There, then, BECAUSE OF
THE PREPARATION OF THE YEHUDIM, they
laid Yahusha, because the tomb was near.
Yahusha died on the 14th, the
preparation day. The Sabbath was approaching
(15th); which is the 7th day.
Joh
20:1 And on the first day of the week
Miryam from Magdala came early to the tomb,
while it was still dark, and saw that the
stone had been removed from the tomb.
The first day of the week was
the 16th day of the month; which came after
the Sabbath (15) that came after the
Preparation day (14): 14, 15, 16
- 14 – 6th day, preparation,
Passover festival
- 15 – 7th day, Sabbath,
Unleavened Bread festival
- 16 - 1st day, day of wave
sheaf on the morrow after the Sabbath
John's account only speaks of
3 days.
Mar
9:31 for He was teaching His taught ones
and said to them, “The Son of Adam is being
delivered into the hands of men, and they
shall kill Him. And having been killed, He
shall rise the third day.”
Every one of these accounts
matches identically to what Yahusha says
here and about 12 or so other places:
- Delivered into the hands of
men and killed (day 1)
- Rested in the grave on the
Sabbath (day 2)
- Rose early on the morning of
the next day first day of the week(day 3)
Mark
16:9 And having risen early on the
first day of the week, He appeared first
to Miryam from Magdala, from whom He had cast
out seven demons.
All four of these accounts tell
us the same thing: 14, 15, 16
I have a challenge for those
who believe in the Gregorian mid-week death
of Messiah - their claim is Yahusha died on
the fourth day of the week and that Yahusha
spent three literal days and nights in the
grave; which comprised of the dates: 14th
(when He died), 15th, 16th, 17th, and 18th
(when He rose). If this is true then we
should find this in at least one of these
accounts. Please, by all means, go through
each one of these accounts in the four Tob
News and put together a time line from the
14th to the 18th.
