read Mark 16:1 carefully, it says “when the sabbath was past”
which sabbath is mark referring to?
if Wednesday was the day Jesus dies, then Thursday was a sabbath day, friday was not a sabbath day and obviously saturday was the sabbath.
so the sabbath past on Friday for the first time if Jesus actually died on Wednesday which would not fit with the literal 72 hour period some feel Matthew 12 is saying.
so Mark 16:1 utterly destroys the wednesday false teaching.

Okay, after this last post, I’m DONE arguing with you. Believe whatever you want. It’s no skin off my nose and we will all know when we meet the Lord.

Fridays are always the “Preparation Day” for the Saturday regular Sabbath. Since there were strict rules for what one could or couldn’t do on the Sabbath, the day before was used to prepare such as food, since cooking wasn’t allowed on the Sabbath as well as travel past a certain distance. Wednesday was the preparation day for the special sabbath on Thursday so then Friday would have been the preparation day for Saturday’s normal sabbath.
