Inclusive Reckoning
September 27, 2004
Hi Bob,
Not at all. One must remember that there are two systems of counting the beginning and ending of days, the biblical method and the secular method. I make that statement to make sure the reader understands the connection as to which day it is in our secular method of counting days. This does not nullify the biblical method of counting days in any way. The midnight that was the beginning of Wednesday would also be the midnight of the fourth day of the week. Hope this helps.

Hi again Jerry,
This short statement can be found in your Conclusion paragraph of the Sign of Jonah article.
"Jesus would have been arrested at midnight which began Wednesday,"
That would go against the whole premise of the complete day being defined as from evening to evening...which you presented earlier.
