We've gone through this many times on this forum...Christ was buried Friday evening just before sundown. He said he would be in the grave for three days and nights. That would mean that his resurrection came after Monday evening.
Luke 23:54
It was Preparation Day, (Friday) and the Sabbath was about to begin.
In Judaism a day begins at sundown by tradition.
Brother, Daniel the Prophet states in Daniel 9:24-27....the timing of Masheiac's coming....v.27...And the strength of the Covenant multiples for one week: and in the middle of theChrist was buried Friday evening just before sundown. He said he would be in the grave for three days and nights. That would mean that his resurrection came after Monday evening.

The words in the Hebrew are specific....example, every month there is a New Moon, does God create a New Moon every month ? Of course not, the moon is Renewed....which is the very same word the Hebrew Scriptures uses in Jeremiah 31:31 brit =covenant....hodesh= Renewed or refreshed....the Hebrew is Brit Hadasha the Renewed Covenant or the Refreshed Covenant.You mean the New Covenant.
Jesus kept the Sabbath. He was Jewish after all.
He did say that the Sabbath was made for man (to rest) and not the other way around.
Mark 2:27
He also "worked" on the Sabbath and told the Pharisees they were wrong in abstaining from all work on the Sabbath.
Also, Jesus is Lord of the Sabbath since HE created it.
I maintain that the Sabbath was a ceremonial Law and was abolished with the New Covenant, which looked at the heart of man and not so much how well man kept Laws outwardly, but had a bad heart inwardly.
My main point, however, is that the Apostles wanted to commemorate the first day of the week since that was when Jesus was resurrected from death.
However, passages of Scripture such as Acts 20:7, 1 Corinthians 16:2, Colossians 2:16-17, and Revelation 1:10 indicate that, even during New Testament times, the Sabbath is no longer binding and that Christians are to worship on the Lord’s day, Sunday, instead.
The early Church Fathers compared the observance of the Sabbath to the observance of the rite of circumcision, and from that they demonstrated that if the apostles abolished circumcision (Gal. 5:1-6), so also the observance of the Sabbath must have been abolished.
The following quotations show that the first Christians understood this principle and gathered for worship on Sunday.
The Didache
“But every Lord’s day . . . gather yourselves together and break bread, and give thanksgiving after having confessed your transgressions, that your sacrifice may be pure. But let no one that is at variance with his fellow come together with you, until they be reconciled, that your sacrifice may not be profaned” (Didache 14 [A.D. 70]).
The Letter of Barnabas
“We keep the eighth day [Sunday] with joyfulness, the day also on which Jesus rose again from the dead” (Letter of Barnabas 15:6–8 [A.D. 74]).
Ignatius of Antioch
“[T]hose who were brought up in the ancient order of things [i.e. Jews] have come to the possession of a new hope, no longer observing the Sabbath, but living in the observance of the Lord’s day, on which also our life has sprung up again by him and by his death” (Letter to the Magnesians 8 [A.D. 110]).
Justin Martyr
“But Sunday is the day on which we all hold our common assembly, because it is the first day on which God, having wrought a change in the darkness and matter, made the world; and Jesus Christ our Savior on the same day rose from the dead” (First Apology 67 [A.D. 155]).
The Didascalia
“The apostles further appointed: On the first day of the week let there be service, and the reading of the holy scriptures, and the oblation [sacrifice of the Mass], because on the first day of the week [i.e., Sunday] our Lord rose from the place of the dead, and on the first day of the week he arose upon the world, and on the first day of the week he ascended up to heaven, and on the first day of the week he will appear at last with the angels of heaven” (Didascalia 2 [A.D. 225]).

Here:Where is this original text?
During the days of the disciples two different calendars were used, the biblical 364 day calendar, and the Hellenistic Lunar calendar. With the biblical calendar, the festivals were always on the same days.Brother, Daniel the Prophet states in Daniel 9:24-27....the timing of Masheiac's coming....v.27...And the strength of the Covenant multiples for one week: and in the middle of the
week, the sacrifice and the obligation cease, and upon the wing of abominations shall come one who makes desolate, until the decreed end is poured out on the desolator.
From this prophecy it is my belief Messiah went to the cross on the 3rd day(wensday) and arose on First Fruits of the Wave offering of Barley, on Sabbaton...which is the evening after Shabbath.
Shalom.
Is this a trick question ? Only a christian would play that game.During the days of the disciples two different calendars were used, the biblical 364 day calendar, and the Hellenistic Lunar calendar. With the biblical calendar, the festivals were always on the same days.
So which calendar do you think the Disciples used?
All the Covenants were refreshed in some way, changed, made better, added to, etc.The words in the Hebrew are specific....example, every month there is a New Moon, does God create a New Moon every month ? Of course not, the moon is Renewed....which is the very same word the Hebrew Scriptures uses in Jeremiah 31:31 brit =covenant....hodesh= Renewed or refreshed....the Hebrew is Brit Hadasha the Renewed Covenant or the Refreshed Covenant.
Doesn't help me at all.Here:
The one from Mount SiniAll the Covenants were refreshed in some way, changed, made better, added to, etc.
But the New Covenant is called the New Covenant in circles where Covenants are discussed.
It might say refreshed in Hebrew and I'd agree, but some question would arise as to which Covenant was being addressed.
The one from Mt.Sinai, only now the Commandments are written on the circumcised Heart, but some christains they're on a Stony heart.All the Covenants were refreshed in some way, changed, made better, added to, etc.

OKThe one from Mount Sini

OK, so you do not believe the Disciples used the Biblical Calendar.Is this a trick question ? Only a christian would play that game.
Daniel plainly states the sacrifice and obligation would cease in the middle of the week, it was Messiah's who put an end to the sacrifice and obligation.
So, it seems you have used the 364 day calendar to come to your conclusion of Monday being Messiah's resurrection....I don't agree.
And upon the first [day] of
Yes, the Disciples followed a biblical calendar, just not your interpretation of it.....considering the the Words of Yahuah is the Authority, when Scripture says sacrifice and the oblation will be cut off in the middle of the week, that's what it means and not the end of the week as you purpose.OK, so you do not believe the Disciples used the Biblical Calendar.
The Mosaic Covenant came after the 10 Commandments that had been written by the finger of Yahuah Tsevaoth on sapphire stone, which Moses threw and broke to show the people they had broken Yah's Covenant.OK
Now I think you're referring to the Mosaic Covenant.
But yes, those commandments were written on stone,
In the New Covenant, the commandments are written on the heart.
