True. I'm sorry if what I said implied that I believe he was crucified on a High Sabbath. My purpose was simply to entertain the thought that there was two preparation days that week.

Sabbath is a “day of holiness and rest observed by Israelites.” Work is restricted during a sabbath.
There are two kinds of sabbath:
1. Regular weekly Saturday sabbath
2. High sabbaths
Presently, the high sabbaths are:
1. First (Nisan 15) and last day (Nisan 21) of the Feast of Unleavened Bread
2. Sivan 6 - Pentecost or Shavouth
3. Tishri 1 – new Year’s Day or Rosh Hashanah
4. Tishri 10 – Day of Atonement or Yom Kippur
5. First (Tishri 15) and last day (Tishri 22) of the Feast of Tabernacle/Shelter/Ingathering or Sukkoth
There is no more Ethanim. This name of the month was during the time of King Solomon only in the eleventh century BC. Tishri has been used since the Babylonian Exile during the seventh century BC.
Nisan 14th (Passover) is not a sabbath.
I do not know if the 7th year and 50th year are sabbath. The whole year – sabbath?
During the time of Jesus, there was another sabbath called the New Moon Festival or Rosh Hodesh (Numbers 28:11-15) held at the beginning of the month. This was the high sabbath referred to in John 19:31.

Jesus was not born in 1 BC. He was crucified and died on 1 BC 08-17. In the new calendar, the year when Jesus was crucified reckons as the reference point. Before Crucifixion of Jesus (BCJ) refers to the years before His crucifixion, and After Death of Jesus (ADJ) refers to the years after He was crucified and died. There is a zero year which is 1 BC. 2 BC becomes 1 BCJ and 100 BC becomes 99 BCJ. 2015 AD is 2015 ADJ.

Can do. I will tell you if you will tell me whether Purim should last two days or three and which Jewish sects are correct as to what day Pesach falls upon this year. Also, I did not say Nisan 14 was a Friday in Jesus's day. I said that is an assumption that some Christian sects teach.

All,
I hate to see argue about what day of the week Jesus died on. But I do want people to discuss whether He is God and whether His atoning death and resurrection have liberated you.

At 28, moving towards a divorce following my father's footsteps... gave my life to Jesus along with my wife not being able to quote one text in the Bible. The next morning I knew something had changed and knew there was something different in my wife--just didn't know what happened. Now I know it was the atoning death of Jesus Christ, Emanuel, who liberated us. Our marriage was restored in less that 24 hours.

The Jewish sects are all wrong whether two days or three days in the month of Adar. If the fasting was done in Nisan, then three days is correct, from Esther 4:16, to wit: “Go, gather together all the Jews that are present in Shushan, and fast ye for me, and neither ear nor drink three days, night or day: I also and my maidens will fast likewise; and so will I go in unto the king, which is not according to the law; and if I perish, I perish.” Did you know that it was on the thirteenth day of the first month (Nisan) when the decree was made? Esther 3:12 states: “Then were the king’s scribes called on the thirteenth day of the first month, and ...”
Did you know that the Jews reformed their calendar in 358/359 AD? That fast of Esther was observed in Nisan. During the reformation, the fast of Esther was moved to Adar for two days from Nisan. Then the Passover Festival was fixed in Nisan.

From the crucifixion date, we will see who is telling the truth.
Jesus showed His sincere love for mankind by being crucified. I can post what the spirit of Ama said about the crucifixion of Jesus, but in the original Filipino language.

Actually, there were three consecutive preparation days for three sabbaths during that week, and not only two. The first is for that high sabbath which was the New Moon Festival. Not for the first day of Feast of Unleavened Bread but for the New Moon Festival. Then there was the regular weekly Saturday sabbath. These first two were observed by the Jews. The third is for the sabbath of the followers of Jesus. I just do not know if the Preparation Day for the three sabbaths was during the first only or for each sabbath.

...and then why do Jewish sects differ today about when Pesach is--now--this year?

...because of church arguments with Judaism, we sometimes have Easter before Passover now!

The Feast of Unleavened Bread “will start on Saturday, the 4th of April and will continue for 7 days until Friday, the 10th of April”, i.e. from Nisan 15-21. 2015 in the Gregorian calendar is equivalent to 5775 in the Jewish calendar in http:// Midrash BEN ISH HAI Hebrew Calendar Converter .
“Note that in the Jewish calander [sic], a holiday begins on the sunset of the previous day, so observing Jews will celebrate Passover on the sunset of Friday, the 3rd of April,” i.e. Nisan 14, 5775.
Jesus was arrested at the Garden of Gethsemane at Passover, i.e. Nisan 14. It is possible that Nisan 14 may be on different days of the week, not on Friday, i.e. Good Friday.
The Jews do not celebrate Good Friday.
The Jewish calendar starts the day at sunset whereas the Gregorian calendar starts at midnight yet.

Did you know that Jesus was killed at exactly 12 noon? This was revealed to us by the spirit of Ama. I believe this because it is difficult to have time between about 3pm and sunset to do all the things that Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus did as stated in the Holy Bible.

You are not understanding my point. You are quoting personal, divine revelation when today, Jewish sects differ and Christian sects differ--and they too have G_d. I don't know the spirit of Ama but I have discernment of various spirits. Be careful.

You say that I do not understand your point. My posting is for all that is why I did not reply to anyone. Please see Christianity in General DIR to see about when Jesus Christ was crucified.
That is the problem. “Jewish sects differ and Christian sects differ—and they too have G_d.” The spirit of Ama would like that we be united just like He and the Father are one (John 17:11—“that they may be one, as we are.”). That is why He is telling us these: when Jesus Christ was born and when He was crucified and died. And the Holy Bible proves that He is correct.
Ama, as most, if not all, of His listeners believe that He is Jesus Christ Himself. The Bible tells us not to ignore ALL spirits but test them (1 John 4:1-3). I have tested Ama. How do we know the true God?
The true God must have the following attributes:
1. omnipotent (having all power; almighty),
2. omnipresent (present everywhere at the same time), and
3. omniscient (knowing everything including what happened in the past and what will happen in the future).
So, if you would worship a god, be sure that He is the true God. He must have the above attributes.

You'll have to prove #2. And your definition of #3. (I have no issue with capacity to lay out the future, but the Bible teaches he restrains his foreknowledge from dictating personal salvation.)
No issues with #1
How can God have all power since God can Not lie ?_______- Titus 1:2 and Hebrews 6:18 ?
How can God be present everywhere at the same time when God's home dwelling location is located in heaven according to 1st Kings 8 :30,34,3639,43,45,49; Hebrews 9:24 ?
How can God know everything when God chose to give all of us choices?
What is the choice given us by God at Deuteronomy 30:19 ?
What choice did Joshua make at Joshua 24:15 ?
Kolibri,
re: "'Day and Night' is an idiom that can mean a part of a [calendar?] day."
Do you know of any writing from the 1st century or before which shows that a daytime and/or a night time was said to be involved with an event when the event absolutely couldn't have included at least a portion of the daytime and at least a portion of the night time?

He has all power because of the fact that He omnipotently decided that he can't.
He can be present everywhere because He has a location in heaven where He dwells and still can be right next to you.
He omnipotently gave you choices but because He knows your heart He knows what choice you are going to make.
Deut 30:19 - the choice to serve Him or serve someone else
Joshua 24:15 is a just a global statement of fact with exceptions (since Joshua himself was serving God along with Caleb and others). They still had the individual choice.
Now, to really get to the nitty gritty because we could just go back and forth on this... could you share with me what your specific area of interest was? In other words, since the previous poster was stating that in response to testing the spirits, why bring up those specific points in response?
