Abstract

210 then returned to receive Jonathan's message on the morning of the fourth working day, although this figure is not given in the text. 20 All calendar days in a specific calendar must begin at the same time. This principle was clearly stated by R.A. Parker, The Calendars of Ancient Egypt (Chicago, 1950), p. 10. §32: "It is obvious that, when the month begins the 1st day of the month also begins." Thus, if David's calendar day started at dawn, this was also the start of the first and every other day of the month. 21 McCarter (n. 8), pp. 337-8, nn. 19, 20. 22 Thus de Vaux (n. 17), p. 279 = E. tr., p. 183. 23 Thus the New English Bible (1972). 1 KINGS XIII � A "NEW CRITERION" RECONSIDERED In his recent article, " 1 Kings xiii: true and false prophecy" VT 39 (1989), pp. 31-43, D.W.
