Three Days and Three NightsSlide 2 Do this in memory of me – has been corrupted over time. It’s an annual observance that’s in addition to what they were already doing. This is not optional. It may sound odd to hear “you have to do something” if you’re from many of the traditional Christian faiths, but this is the hard reality. He commanded us to do something in memory of Him. We have to take that literally and seriously. Paul is repeating a commandment to the Corinthian church that He received from the Lord. They were a mixed bunch in a pagan city, so this has to apply to all types of believers and is a commandment, not an option. Slide 3 the timing. Sign of Jonah – it has to be close to 3 days and 3 nights. Slide 4 Modern timing makes no sense. Slide 5 – we have to ignore our time keeping entirely. Very hard to do. But we need to establish and anchor point. Some time in these events from which to derive when it all began and when it all ended. This anchor point is the Passover. Big deal since Yeshua is the Lamb of God. Him dying on Passover is very important to doctrine and we can get into that later. The point here is to use biblical reckoning for time and He died on Passover.Slide 6 – timeline. The anchor point is when the death happened – on the late afternoon of Abib 14. At sunset on Abib 14 starts the High Sabbath of ULB1. This is where we measure from. Then we look back 24 hours and see the night He was betrayed. Then we add 3 to 14 and come up with the resurrection. Slide 7 The Night Yeshua was Betrayed sunset April 11, 2025 (Friday night)Passover (on Shabbat) sunset April 12, 2025Days of Unleavened Bread – April 13-19, 2025 with the 13th (Sunday) and 19th (Shabbat) as Sabbaths.There is no observance for the wave sheaf offering. It’s not a Sabbath.https://firstcenturychristianity.net/three-days-and-three-nights/
