I explained what is in the reasoning (read the sentences before the day on the week which is typed in bold). As I said, they are all possibilities depending on how one is counting and what the starting time is.rstrats wrote: Does anyone know what JehovahsWitness is saying? I don't see how Wednesday, Friday, Saturday or Sunday can even be in the running.

???
PCE Theology as I see it...
We had an existence with a free will in Sheol before the creation of the physical universe. Here we chose to be able to become holy or to be eternally evil in YHWH's sight. Then the physical universe was created and all sinners were sent to earth.
This theology debunks the need to base Christianity upon the blasphemy of creating us in Adam's sin.

The Egyptian slave said that he had taken ill 3 days ago. I asked if it had been a Thursday when he made the comment, on what day was he taken ill? McCulloch wrote: "If he had said, 'my master left me behind when I fell sick one day ago', we would have no difficulty determining that he meant Wednesday. If he had said, 'my master left me behind when I fell sick two days ago', he clearly meant Tuesday. So when he says, 'my master left me behind when I fell sick three days ago', he means Monday".
I would say that would be the correct understanding. But what if the Egyptian instead had said: "Today (Thursday) is the third day since I took ill". Would he still be referring to Monday as the day that he became ill?
