<BLOCKQUOTE TYPE=CITE style="BORDER-LEFT: #0000ff 2px solid; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px">BAGD takes opse as an "improper preposition" with the genitive, so the<BR>
interpretation would be "after the Sabbath." In a later discussion one<BR>
fellow said the phrase should be interpreted quite literally into "latter<BR>
of the Sabbaths." When I pointed out BAGD's use of opse, he said<BR>
Blass/Debrunner (and Thayer too I believe) interpreted opse as "latter" or<BR>
"later," as well as used the plural "Sabbaths." However I don't have<BR>
access to Blass/Debrunner or Thayer. What are the possible interpretation<BR>
options for Matt 28:1? Also,is the "literal latter" interpretation<BR>
considered a valid option by either references or your opinion?<BR>

I think that, at least in part, your puzzlement is due to the plural SABBATWN. BAGD and BDAG point out that TA SABBATA is used of one Sabbath.<BR>
