The term used in scripture is "First of the Sabbaths". The Greek word is Sabbaton and is only used in scripture to denote these special seven Sabbaths between Passover and Pentecost.

Is that from the Gospel according to Jay Green?

Let's make it simple. I don't accept your definitions. I'll stick with the accepted scholarship.

Let's make it simple. I don't accept your definitions.

Douay-Rheims: [Matthew 28:1] And in the end of the sabbath, when it began to dawn towards the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalen and the other Mary, to see the sepulchre.

They almost have it right....but nevertheless show this event to be happening on The Sabbath.

Latin Vulgate: [Matthew 28:1] vespere autem sabbati quae lucescit in primam sabbati venit Maria Magdalene et altera Maria videre sepulchrum.

This also says "In the end of the Sabbath"....if you cannot read Latin.

[Matthew 28:1]

The above shows ten accepted translations of the verse in question. Six of them show the visit to the tomb happening on the Sabbath. The other four.....because of bias in their erroneous beliefs....choose to reinterpret scripture to their own agenda.

I'll stick with the accepted scholarship.

Many folks will not accept the truth because of peer pressure and indoctrination from early childhood. Whenever I post these Biblical truths I receive many such replies as yours and can only offer this advice. Think like a Hebrew when reading scripture. After all....it was they who gave us the scriptures....both Old and New!
