Did Peter lie in his Acts vision when he said he had never eaten unclean animals?

There are probably at least a few hundred prayers being said around the globe in a multitude of different languages at any given moment. I always wonder how they are all kept separate in order to make the decisions for any actions to be taken with regard to each one of them. And of course, they...

Does He count the start of a new calendar day when the following edge of the Sun disk disappears below the horizon? And does He count the start of the daytime of the new calendar day when the leading edge of the Sun disk appears above the horizon?

Yes, that is what posthuman and I just said. BTW, what was your reason for quoting "a worldly method of counting days"?

Well let's see: Entombed Thursday afternoon - calendar day1, daytime 1. In tomb Friday - calendar day 2, night time 1, daytime 2. In tomb Saturday - calendar day 3, night time 2, daytime 3. In tomb Sunday- calendar day 4, night time 3. So, 4 calendar days are involved in the grave and not just 3.

On which days do you think the crucifixion and resurrection occurred?

I guess I must have been off sick on the day that reading comprehension was covered in class, because I can't understand what your saying.

Apparently not. So, if you weren't saying that the night count started on Thursday night, with the count ending during the night time on Sunday, what were you saying?

Sometime after Saturday at 6pm would be the start of Sunday so yes. So, another calendar day and at least another night time and perhaps daytime would have been involved.

But Mark 16:1 says, "When the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices, that they might come and anoint Him." That says that they bought the spices after the Sabbath.

In your post #64 you wrote, "How so? Thursday night, Friday night, and Saturday night - three nights." And if He was in the tomb on Sunday night, which I think you just implied that He was, then a 4th night would have been involved.

Are you saying that He was never in the tomb on any part of Sunday?

If by "morning" you mean the daytime of Sunday, why couldn't the Messiah have resurrected during the night time of Sunday?

On what day do you think the resurrection took place?

I think you're saying that the night count began on Thursday night when the Messiah was arrested and ended with the night time of Sunday. If so, that would mean four night times were involved and not three.
