Figure of speech/colloquialism?

And you're trying to climb a nonexistent tree. Why not try another question or topic.

And again, 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 and who has examples to legitimately assert that it was common to say that a daytime or a night time would be involved with a event when no part of a daytime or no part of a night time could have occurred.
 
Good luck with all of that. You want to find someone who believes exactly like you do. Sometimes thst simply doesn't happen.
 
Well we Do know that a baby is said to be a day old no matter what time of the day the birth occurred. If the birth took place a couple of minutes before midnight for instance that is considered a whole day. That's a "matter of speaking" so to speak. It's common way of statng the age of the baby.

And a couple who've been married for a while. A wedding can take place Any time of the day. But that entire day is considered the day they got married.


And when Jesus Christ was in the tomb
 
He didn't stay there ☆ He went to hell in our place and ministered to those in Hades / sheol and if they chose to believe in Him as the Risen Savior. They could go back up with Him . It's been stated in God's word that there were those who'd died were seen walking in the streets.
 
Then never mind.
But I do mind. You said that I want to find someone who believes exactly like I do. Since I didn't know to what belief you were referring, I asked for a clarification. I'd still like to know what you had in mind.
 
Apparently you don't believe that Jesus christ rose from the dead?!
That's a belief issue for a different topic. With regard to this one, I only have 2 beliefs: 1.- that if someone says that the Messiah was using common figure of speech/colloquial language of the period that they would have to know of examples to legitimately support the idea of commonality, and 2. - that so far no one has yet provided those examples.

Look at the last couple of lines -- indicating that there would have been No resurrection.

Not so. The only thing it indicates is that there would be no actual third night time with a 6th day of the week crucifixion/1st day of week resurrection.
