On what day was Jesus crucified? | GotQuestions.org 

Jesus raised Lazarus on the fourth day. Jesus prophesied (his only sign to man) he would be three days and three nights in the Earth. Believing Friday discredits the resurrection, the gospels, Christ, and makes it all nothing but a nice story. Thank God for the internet that allows us to research the truth hidden from us for almost 1700 years.

@@SoyebAkhtar151 He was affirming that all righteousness is in God the Father, and that the Son was obedient to the Father, and we should do the Father's will in all things. We must remember he was not announcing even to his disciples he was deity. The man said he was "good." If Jesus told the man he was also good or he was God not Messiah there would be no lesson. Because the man wouldn't believe him. You study the Bible, you don't just read verses, context is important. Seek the truth and come follow Jesus my friend.

It seems to me that most views are held because we cannot prove otherwise BUT it does not mean that they are correct. I personally think it is more of magic to accept that the Messiah was crucified on Friday. Let the word of God speak for itself or we will have many Christian religions.

yes, it was WEDNESDAY CRUCIFIXION = PASSOVER ... HE died "in the middle of the week" = WEDNESDAY. HE RESTED 3 days and 3 nights = sign of the Prophet Jonah ... and RESURRECTED ON THE SABBATH ... JUST BEFORE SUNDAY.

@jacobmorgan6681 I'm a newbie to the bible at 58, I was graced with Yahshua & and his essence 4 months ago. I can not get enough of Derek Prince & Chuck Missler. Their devoted wisdom is without reproach & everytime I hear something new, even though I'd heard it before 👌🙏

I love this. Wish I could copy and share!

Beautiful tribute.

I'm a Wednesday advocate. He would've been buried and in the grave three days and nights and rose on the Sabbath which is Saturday.

He is risen that's what matters.

Christ was crucified on Wednesday. And yes, it DOES matter because Dan. 9:27 says the Messiah was prophesied to die on a Wednesday. Show me a professing Christian who worships a Jesus who died on any other day, and i'll show you somebody who is worshiping "another Jesus". It's a testament to how much "Christians" insist on calling God a liar. He gave us the specific day that Christ was to die on, and "Christians" STILL don't believe Him!

What do you mean it ‘seems logical to you, and does it really matter’? Of course it matters. You’re denying Christ. The bible proves Jesus was crucified on Wednesday the 25th of April AD31. He resurrected on Saturday the 28th of April at Sunset.

Unless you are talking about fiction, when Jesus was crucified does not matter. It can happen anyday. But if the you consider Jesus crucifixion as historical, then the exact date matters. The fact that the anonymous authors of the gospels do not agree when Jesus was crucified only means that Jesus was not crucified. All the stories about Jesus crucifixion as well as his resurrection were all made up. Jesus never existed in history. Jesus story was a historical fiction!

It's worth mentioning that the night He spent in prison before the cross, was potentially a night "in the ground" too.

That's exactly what I've believed for many years. His trial, crucifixion, and death all took place on Wednesday. He was placed in the tomb at the end of that day which is our 6pm and begins the next Jewish day. I believe in a full 3 days and 3 full nights in the tomb, not partial days or nights. He could have risen from the dead at some point past 6 pm on the weekly Sabbath or our Saturday. Your point about the women who came to the tomb very early Sunday morning and found Jesus already out of the tomb is valid. I would not argue the matter too much but I definitely don't even believe in the possibility of a Friday crucifixion. It simply did not happen.

That’s gentile way of counting time - not the biblical way of counting time

Well said.

Saturday is mostly the same as the Sabbath; Jesus rested.

It's because the Jews believed that when someone dies, it takes up to 72 hours before the soul leaves the body. Jesus Christ had to be in the tomb for 72 hours. You need to study Jewish / Hebrew beliefs and customs. Also, study the Jewish / Hebrew calendar & 7 Annual High Holy Sabbaths. My church never taught me those things, but I am a truth seeker & did my research & found the truth. The truth shall set you free.

​@@gordzruss2662So like the Gospel of John says. It was a high day. The next day the women bought and prepared spices. Then rested upon the Sabbath.

It does say he rose, look back on the law and the prophets, this is where all proof is located. the Law and the Prophets speak of him. these are the 2 witnesses, all that is needed.

There was no solar eclipse, it was an earthquake that hit southern Egypt, and a dust storm that blocked out the sun, this archeologist have documented proof of this.

Being dark doesn't put Christ in the Earth if that is where you are going.

Amen you know.

@@JesusSavesandRomeEnslaves I like your moniker. It reminds me of a book Far From Rome Near to God by Richard Bennett.

John 20 said it was dark when Mary got to the tomb. That means he was raised at night.

Except Friday crucifixion calls Jesus prophesy a lie, calls the gospels contradictory, and thus makes claims the Bible is a book of fiction more palatable.

If you read Mathew 12:40 In it’s full context, Jesus is basing his entire deity and legitimacy on him being the sign of Jonah, Him being in the grave for 3 days and 3 nights. So if one were to claim the Friday crucifixion day and try to do the “get a full day credit for being in the grave for any part of the day” argument will delegitimize Jesus’s Entire legitimacy according to Jesus himself. I believe in the “what we call” crucifixion on Wednesday position (which is actually Jewish Thursday evening which starts their day) because Jesus needed to already be in the tomb by the Jewish Thursday evening (the evening and the morning were the 1st, 2nd….day if you want to know why that is) I don’t take a big stance against those who hold the Thursday crucifixion theory, because they seem to understand the requirement for full 24 hour days. I thing they just don’t understand fully how Jewish holidays work and a simple miscalculation. But the Friday crucifixion is kinda a big deal! Because Jesus basically states if he’s not in the grave for a full 3 days and 3 nights, he is Illegitimate. Also historically, it can be easily shown where the crucifixion on Friday fallacy originated. Constantine the Great directly interfered with the 1st Roman Catholic council of Niece and said he was going to decide once and for all the schism as to when celebrate the resurrection. Was it according to the Jewish Passover or on the Roman holiday “Easter/Ashtoreth-Ishtar” (they didn’t even bother changing the pagan name of the pagan holiday) He chose the Roman method which always places the holiday on a Sunday, is based on a lunar cycle. And as part of Ashtoreth-Ishtar is a day of drunken revelry that occurred on the Friday before. So, the entire confusion of the alleged Friday crucifixion is caused by the Roman Catholics trying to repurpose their pagan holiday celebration and align it in such a way they could still celebrate “Good Friday”. Like nearly all Roman Catholic false doctrines, errors and sometimes complete heretical abominations (transsubstantiation, replacement theology (the church replaces Israel), and the Eucharist) it all stems from the gentile church not understanding the Old Testament and the intricacies of Judaism and especially the Passover. Starting from slight misunderstanding (which is understandable) and over the hundreds of years evolving into damnable abominations such as the Catholic mass. Now I do celebrate “Easter” because it is the only repurposed pagan/“Christian” holiday that is roughly in the correct time of the year, and as the Apostle Paul states in a number of his epistles especially Galatians, we are not to judge or condemn fellow believers based on keeping or not keeping of holidays and sabbaths and dietary habits and other such practices. It’s okay to celebrate Easter or Christmas if done with a sincere attitude. However, like I mentioned above, the Good Friday error is a special kind of wrong. In actuality straight up lie which eventually grew into massive error and led to the outright torture and slaughter of millions of Christians and Jews over the centuries under the orders and hands of the Vatican. Unlike the Wednesday or Thursday position is a simple minor calculation error on the part of whichever camp is ultimately incorrect. Neither of which evolved into so many heresies or led to such atrocities of the Roman Catholic Church

@@SoyebAkhtar151 the Prophet Muhammad liked children

@@roberttompkins9991 TLDR

​@@roberttompkins9991the only way I differ from you... I believe it's all God's plan, Satan made it happen to delegitimize Jesus but the Catholic Church by God's hand spread the Gospels to the world. I think the elect are in all churches and we are getting closer to the day. The information at our fingertips is being used by God to educate us from the heresies Satan has spread over the centuries through "Church tradition".

Yes it is 3 days as the first day would go back to the beginning of that day which started at sunset the day prior. 3 days

Christ was not in the Earth he was on the cross. Why did Jesus wait until after 3 days to raise Lazarus?

Then when did the women buy the spices? The priests wouldn't enter Pilots Compound on Preparation day. So when did they go to Pilot and request the guards? Please read the gospels. Jesus did rise he didn't just resuscitate as your theory claims.

I believe Jesus was crucified and died and was buried on Friday, and was resurrected on Sunday morning, and 40 days later ascended to the right hand of God, and is there to this day.

@@user-bz6vt9nf5h You can believe as you wish. The Gospels say different.

@@geraldhill7547 Didn't I quote the verses that said Jesus died on Friday? John 19:14-16 read it again

The Women purchased spices and Priests went to see Pilot on Friday. Then they observed the Sabbath.

Palm Sunday: Jesus enters Jerusalem on a colt, visits the temple briefly, and returns to Bethany for the night. Monday: Jesus rises early, curses the fig tree on the way to Jerusalem, and then clears the temple Tuesday: Jesus celebrates Passover with his disciples, institutes the Lord’s Supper and is arrested. Wednesday: Priests won't enter Pilot's compound because of coming passover. Jesus stands “trial” is flogged and executed by crucifixion. His body is taken down from the cross before sunset and he’s buried in a tomb. Thursday: High Sabbath passover Friday: Priests go see Pilot to station guards. Women purchase and prepare spices for anointing and observe the Sabbath. Saturday: Sabbath and resurrection prior to dawn 1st day of week. Sunday: Ladies arrive near dawn Jesus is risen already. Jesus didn't just sleep in Bethany on Wednesday of the last week of his life. Read the gospels 🙏

@@geraldhill7547 you are wrong, you should try reading the gospels, because they prove that Jesus was crucified on a Friday. Why do you naughty people deceive people?

What bible are you using. It sounds like a Jesuit bible. The only Holy Bible that you can trust is the original King James Version.

@@gordzruss2662 the NKJV is the most accurate translation of the Bible. I have many translations, I also have the Hebrew and Greek Bible's, so I know which is the most accurate translation.

@@alanhales6369 That is not based on the original Hebrew / Greek Holy Bible. No, it's not. It is a Jesuit Bible intended to confuse people. Are you a Jesuit?

Also full of inaccuracies.

You have to understand that Jesus offered his life by his free will.

@@johann-sebastianbach2839 Jesus grew up a Jew in the 1st century and his religion did animal sacrifice. We are talking about barbaric mankind here. Enough said.

I would argue that the sins of mankind are barbaric, which is why He had to die such a cruel death for us. But the act itself was the most selfless act of love in human history

@@yohannesolliverre2121 Dude it was the 1st century, they were superstitious. That is about on par with throwing a human down the throat of a volcano to quell the wrath of the great volcano god.

@Bob.55 the concept of sacrificial atonement and forgiveness of sins may seem superstitious, but as a Christian I think it reflects a universal struggle with sin and death that transcends time and culture. But at the end of the day you're entitled to your own beliefs (or lack thereof)

There is too much evidence against a 30 ad and 33ad, it does not follow and align with prophecy. Christ was 49.7 years old at his death and it is proven by the value the priests assigned to Judas for the betrayal. Valuing a Jew had to be according to the law and that Year was a Jubilee so things had to be correct under the law of Jubilee and what is required. birth was in 25bce, death 26ad making him 49.7 years old, not yet 50 as scripture says, they did not lie and Christ did not rebuke them.

​@@InTheGarden1960Where is this from? Book of Jubilee, somewhere else. Rabbi at 30, why would he wait longer if he came to die for the sins of the world?

No way. There are secular sources that say He was crucified in the 18th Year of Ceasar Tiberius. He became co-regent (which means co-ruler with his father Agustus) in October 12AD. The 18th year is from October 29AD to October 30AD. The Passover Day Nisan 14 (trial of Jesus Christ & crucifixion) was on Wednesday, April 5, 30AD Julian calendar or Wednesday, April 3, 30AD Gregorian calendar that we observe. There's also a genuine document (found by archeologists) signed by Pontius Pilot that was signed 5th day of April, on why he had Jesus Christ crucified. I have many other sources that all point to 30AD crucifixion.

By the way, the Passover Day (Nisan 14) in 33AD is April 1, 33AD. Check any Jewish/Hebrew calendar.
