Jesus died late afternoon.

Wednesday night, Thursday day,

Thursday night, Friday day,

Friday night, Saturday day,

Three nights and three days, just as Jesus said.

Jesus rises sometime Saturday night, the time is not specified, and the women come to the tomb on Sunday morning, the first day of the Jewish week, with the spices they prepared on what we consider Friday, the day between the Passover Sabbath (Thursday), and the regular weekly Sabbath (Saturday).

Matthew 12:40 For just 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.

Wow, just wow. I knew that you guys had departed from Christianity, but I did not realize how far. Well, I will post the link http://www.letusreason.org/doct10.htm which explains the whole deal as to days and nights and so on from the Jewish perspective.

It is the magnitude of departure that so often surprises me. Almost to the extent that Mormonism departs...
