Maunday Thursday

[rstrats]

Does anyone who is familiar with Maundy Thursday, the day during Holy Week which commemorates the washing of the feet and last supper of the Messiah with the apostles know what part of Thursday that this took place - during the night time at the beginning of Thursday, or during the daytime toward the end of Thursday?

What? You just asked that same question in your post #36, and I answered in post #37 - "No, that the first half of Friday was night time." What am I missing?

So, "second half of Friday" as Friday daylight, yes, Jesus body was taken from the cross after the ninth hour, in Jewish time reckoning, the ninth hour corresponds to 3 p.m.

Matt 27:45-46
45 Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land unto the ninth hour.
46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

But what was going on during the first half of Friday?

Jesus body at the tomb.

The Messiah wasn't even on the cross during the first half of Friday.

Jesus body at the tomb.

The Messiah wasn't even on the cross during the first half of Friday.

Yes, His body was taken by Joseph of Arimathea and laid Jesus in his (Joseph) tomb.
Mounce lexicon defined "even", in Greek "ὀψία opsia" as either before or after sunset.

Matt 27:57-60
57 When the even was come, there came a rich man of Arimathaea, named Joseph, who also himself was Jesus' disciple:
58 He went to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded the body to be delivered.
59 And when Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,
60 And laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock: and he rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulchre, and departed.

G3798 (Mounce)
ὀψία opsia
evening, either before or after sundown.
