Daniel,
First, your assumption that I concur with either Friday-Sunday or Thursday-Sunday is false. This subject is a regular visitor to this forum every time someone like yourself thinks they have "figured it out". I made my position clear months and do not care to repeat myself.
The purpose of my post to you was to point out your errors in light of D’vorah’s knowledge of the customs and practices of the Hebrew people at that time, which renders your theory mute. All the calculations you can muster will not change the fact that the Savior nor the people would break the law as you have suggested.
As to the astronomical evidence, I challenge everyone interested in this subject to contact an observatory and ask them to give you the moon phases during the dates you prefer to use in reckoning the time of the Saviors crucifixion. No matter which date you use the "error factor" will render your conclusions useless.

The only way you, or anyone else will ever learn the truth in this matter is to study the customs and habits of the Hebrew people. The secret lies in rightly dividing the Word, not in mastering mathematics.
: Aharon,
: The Friday-Sunday view is logically flawed (Mt. 12:40; Mk. 8:31) so that it is in mathematical contradiction to the scripture.
: The Thursday-Sunday view does not literally translate Mt. 28:1, "On the Later of the Sabbaths, at the dawning on the first of the Sabbaths" or any of the other resurrection passages.
: As for astronomy your facts are simply incorrect. I am willing to document mine. Since you made the charge, the burden of proof is on you to show that my selected date of 34 c.e. for a 14th of Aviv on Wed. is impossible.
