re: "The page here lists an example from Esther 4:16 & 5:1."
The Esther account is not an example where a daytime or a night time was forecast or said to be involved with an event when no part of a daytime or no part of a night time could have occurred. Nothing in the account shows where at least a portion of 3 daytimes and at least a portion of 3 night times couldn't have taken place.

Someone new visiting this topic may know of examples.

Since it's been awhile, perhaps someone new looking in may know of examples.

Apparently no one new looking in thinks that the crucifixion took place on the 6th day of the week.
calling you bible scholars!.
i was asked this:.
how can this apply to jesus when he was not in the grave for 3 nights?.

re: "The Jews customarily counted anything that happened during any part of 3 days as a full 3 days.This was a known and accepted practice."
But was it a known and accepted practice to say that a daytime or a night time would be involved with an event when no part of the daytime or no part of the night time could occur?

myelaine,
re: "You're right. That's why I said may not have occured."
I'm not looking for examples that "may not have occurred". I'm looking for examples that actually did occur.
re: However, it was a colloquialism of the time and the full day or night not occuring criteria has been met.
That's an issue for a different topic.
re: "I suppose you can't have it all if mine might be the best example given..."
But you didn't provide an actual example.
much has been said about “fake news”.
regarding the witnesses, they would always ask, “ did you hear the latest”?.
since the witnesses claim to have the “truth”, can you express anything that turned out to be truly “fake news”?
Fake news would be a report that something happened when it didn't.

That's a failed prediction. It's not "fake news".
