In Esther 4:16, Esther sends a message to Mordecai, instructing him to fast on her behald: Fast ye for me, and neither eat nor drink three days, night or day: I and my maidens will fast likewise; and so will I go in unto the king. So they fasted for 72 hours, right? No: in Esther 5:1, Esther went to the king on the third day.

The passages in Matthew and Esther are not analogous.... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Franciscan Monkey) http://sabdiscussionboard.yuku.com/sreply/8746 Fri, 04 Nov 2005 23:21:45 GMT <![CDATA[ Re: Matthew 12:40 - Three Days And Three Nights ]]> http://sabdiscussionboard.yuku.com/reply/8745/t/Matthew-12-40-Three-Days-And-Three-Nights.html#reply-8745

1) Part of Friday day = day 1

4) Saturday night = night 2
5) Sunday morning = day 3

Day 3 is tricky. Matthew has the ressurection before sunrise which means no day 3. Mark has it in Sunday morining so there is a day 3. Luke has it very early in the morning so there is a day 3. John has it before sunrise on the first day so it's still the Sabbath and so no... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Rev Etherman) http://sabdiscussionboard.yuku.com/sreply/8744 Sat, 10 Sep 2005 11:31:34 GMT <![CDATA[ Matthew 12:40 - Three Days And Three Nights ]]> http://sabdiscussionboard.yuku.com/topic/1082/t/Matthew-12-40-Three-Days-And-Three-Nights.html
