Easter Sunday.

[dangus]

Well, the next day was the Sabbath (Saturday), so they were unable to dress the body with ointments. Therefore, they came back on the next day. That would be Sunday, the third day.

If that is the case, when did Jesus rise from the grave?

An interesting question indeed, because as Jesus tells us in Matthew 12:40:

For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.

The conundrum is left as an exercise to the reader.

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

***If that is the case, when did Jesus rise from the grave? ***

On the First of the Sabbaths, or SUNDAY.

When the Jews reckoned the days of the week they always used the day in it's relationship to the Sabbath.

Sunday was the first of the Sabbaths.
Monday was the second of the Sabbaths.
ect.

For example, one of the Pharisees said he “fasted twice in the Sabbaths”, a reference to their twice in a week fast.

And on the road to Emus, one of the men traveling with a disguised JESUS said, concerning the events of the past days, “Today is the third day”.
