***Fascinating; I have just shown you from Scripture and the methodology of Jewish timekeeping that you are wrong.
Take it up with Jesus, then. He was the one who said it. ***
Ah, a literalist. Have you cut off your arm if it caused you to sin? Have you plucked out your eye if it caused you to sin? There are many things that Jesus said that are allegory and metaphorical. The parables were not literally true. Was there actually a Good Samaritan for real? Was the prodigal son real?
***The Jewish day is 24 hours long. On the equator it is 24 hours. In Alaska, it is 24 hours. At the North Pole it is 24 hours. You are basically making a statement that a day is from sunset to sunset, so in effect if a Jew lived in a place where night or day lasted months, then their “day” would effectively span months, which is ludicrous and absurd. ***
Is it?
http://www.askmoses.com/en/article/283,2135341/What-is-Halachic-Time-or-an-Halachic-Hour.html says that:
Defining Time
“Halachic time” works differently than the clocks we are used to. In Halachah, time works based on Sha’ot Zmaniyot, “proportional hours” that depend on the season. Halachic hours are not necessarily 60 minutes; instead we take the day, from sunrise until sunset, and divide it into twelve equal parts. Each part constitutes one halachic hour. In the summer this can be up to 75 minutes and in the winter it can be as little as 45 minutes. Midday is the halfway point between sunrise and sunset, and can be quite late if Passover falls out after the onset of Daylight Saving Time.
According to this Jewish source, the Jewish hours vary according to the length of the time between sunset and sunset.
