Question: It was 3 days, but how many hours (approximately) from Jesus’ death to the morning of the resurrection? I think (just a guess) around 34 -40 hours??? Note that there are 72 hours in a full 3 days. The Jews reckoned time Sundown to Sundown. So for us, God’s three “days” could be1600 to 2500 years or so AD, before the temple gets “rebuilt”.

Are you being serious?

Do you really think you can “figure” out God’s timing?

Jesus’s disciples were clueless in the face of events and even with him telling them in plain language.

So this is SPECULATION! Which BTW, is exactly what it should be called when people make guesses about the proper interpretation of scripture for future events.
