Common Jewish Idiom?

And that "someone new" needs to be someone who believes the crucifixion took place on the 6th day of the week with a 1st day of the week resurrection, and who thinks that the "heart of the earth" is referring to the tomb, and who tries to explain the lack of a 3rd night by saying that the Messiah was employing common figure of speech/colloquial language of the period.

. . . so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.

So then do you know of any writing as asked for in the OP?

"The evening and the morning was the first day" in Genesis 1.

Friday, starting thursday evening = 1st "day and night".
Saturday, starting Friday evening = 2nd "day and night".
Sunday, starting Saturday evening = 3rd "day and night".

Jesus was crucified on Wednesday not Friday. The good friday is a ploy to make sunday the day of worship where as God says He does not change so why the change from Saturday to Sunday? It was to distant the church from the Jewish Saturday worship. but then again Jesus has become our sabbath rest every day.

PhilbertDezineck,
re: "Jesus was crucified on Wednesday not Friday."

That would be an issue for a different topic. Maybe you could start one.

Maybe someone new visiting this topic may know of examples.

And that "someone new" needs to be someone who believes the crucifixion took place on the 6th day of the week with a 1st day of the week resurrection, and who thinks that the "heart of the earth" is referring to the tomb, and who tries to explain the lack of a 3rd night by saying that the Messiah was employing common figure of speech/colloquial language of the period.

Since it's been awhile, perhaps someone new looking in may know of examples.

"And that 'someone new' needs to be someone who believes the crucifixion took place on the 6th day of the week with a 1st day of the week resurrection, and who thinks that the 'heart of the earth' is referring to the tomb..." should be changed to read: "And that 'someone new' needs to be someone who believes the crucifixion took place on the 6th day of the week with a 1st day of the week resurrection, and who thinks that the "heart of the earth" is referring to the tomb or at the earliest at the moment when the Messiah's spirit left His body..."

In the Talmud a part of a day is considered to be as a whole day when calculating certain things. Babylonian Talmud Shabbos page 85A where R, Akiva states that part of a day is reckoned as a whole.

I believe you are mistaken. There is no Shabbos in the Soncino Babylonian Talmud and there is no Talmud named Shabbos to my knowledge.

I assure you it exists and you can buy it online.

I don't see where you've provided examples (plural) which show that was common to forecast or say that a daytime or a night time would be involved with an event when no part of a daytime or no part of a night time could occur.
