Years ago I heard a messianic rabbi on a radio program. He explained from a Jewish perspective how everything in the scripture aligns with Thursday as the crucifixion day. My church and most believers I know hold to the Friday belief but that’s okay with me. The fact that he was crucified and rose again to cleanse us from our sins is the most important thing, so I never let it bother me when other believers have a different viewpoint on the exact day. But this was very informative and I actually had never heard the Wednesday view and never even knew it existed before this! Thanks!

Thank YOU Lord Jesus!

The flaws are in the clock.

FIRST!

Dear Lord,

Great Stuff, very Detailed. thank you for this Wisdom, and God Bless all who study the Bible. It`s God`s word to us.

Jesus said there are 12 hours in a day. So if we have 3 days (3-12 hour days) and 3 nights (3-12 hour nights) then He died in the 9th hour on a Wednesday, with Thursday being the high day or high sabbath. He rose no earlier than the 9th hour on Saturday. Folded the napkin before sunset. The next sunrise, 1st day of the week, His tomb was discovered empty.

I am a Thursday advocate. Seems logical to me, but does it really matter? Jesus Christ is our lord and savior, that's what matters most.

I thank GOD for this program that is extremely important of Blessing and information and learning for a life of action and purpose GOD BLESS YOU THANK YOU..

What day he rose from the dead matters to me a lot. If we are going to use historical evidence it needs to be accurate. No changing the day now. A lot can happen to a dead body if we start shuffling what happened what day.

Thank you for this video. While I don't consider the day a major doctrinal issue, several people have asked me this question and you gave a very helpful explanation.

👍 He was without sin and willingly was the sacrifice to cover MY sin. It's a GOOD day no matter what day it was. 💜✝️💜 @

I agree with the Wednesday crucifixion but with different detail. As you pointed out, all 4 gospels agree that Jesus was crucified and died on Preparation Day (the Crucifixion is the only time the term "Preparation Day" or "day of Preparation" is used. That fact alone is significant. The gospel of John gives the entire detail surrounding the 3 full days and 3 full nights that Jesus was in the tomb. They had to get Jesus off of the cross before sundown because sundown is the start/stop of any Jewish day. The next day was a Special Sabbath of Passover on Nisan 14 which is always immediately followed by another Special Sabbath on Nisan 15 which is the first day of the 7 day Feast of Unleavened Bread. (Leviticus 23: 4 - 7) All 4 gospels also agree when the women went to the tomb which was after the regular weekly Sabbath. Yeah so that also means that the Last Supper was not a Passover observance. All 4 gospels record the last supper as serving regular bread. The Passover observance required that everybody eat unleavened bread. In addition the prophecy that Jesus quoted about "....someone dipping bread with him.... " Psalm 41:9 was also just regular bread. Both Hebrew for the Old Testament and Greek for the New Covenant have separate words for 'bread' and 'unleavened bread'.

My son and I was just discussing the crucifixion and resurrection when I came across your channel. Trying to figure out when. But we do know He was born , crucified and arose again. I wonder why some people thinks Christmas and Easter is of the devil. We are sure Jesus was born, died and rose again.

Blessings in Christ

Thank you for a good video covering the answers to the question of when Jesus was crucified. If one looks at the Quartodeciman controversy, you learn that the eastern churches under the apostle John followed the Jewish Passover and celebrated the Resurrection accordingly. Rome fixed the date on a Friday. At the beginning, the churches celebrated the Resurrection Date on different days, but there was unity with all churches. In time, the Roman Church persecuted the "14ers(hence the Latin term Quartodeciman) and forced the 14ers to capitulate.

Luke 24:13 refers NOT to the day of Jesus' resurrection but to the day the women went to the tomb - definitely Sunday. As for this being the third day since these things happened; it is easy to believe that as they were only partly into the 4th day they could be only counting three completed days.

Correction about the Wednesday view having a difficulty with the men walking on the Road with Jesus: we see a day and night differently than the Jewish people. They do not start a new day at 12am like we do and they do not refer to a day as 6am-6pm.

I’m a Thursday guy too, but I agree it is not something worth dividing over. Jesus died for our sins and was physically risen from the dead three days after.

I believe that my Lord Jesus had a busy evening into morning starting Thursday. The last supper and praying or sleeping in the garden, then early after midnight abuse and persecution by the priest. Dawn Friday Roman justice or lack of and then regrettable crucification, than the mystery of what Jesus did on Saturday and then the blessed day of His resurrection as reported by a woman (I mean no Ill thoughts by saying this)
