Good post & glad more are coming to the understanding of Scriptural truth.

Now about those 3 days, it is also written/prophesied that Jesus would raise on the 3rd day, which means He rose late in the afternoon on the weekly Sabbath, just as prophesy revealed He would. Sunday, the morrow after the Sabbath, He ascended to the Father as the First Fruit of the resurrection to come. Maybe this is something you can work on for next year.

From that time Jesus began to show his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and on the third day be raised. [Mt 16:21]

and they will kill him, and he will be raised on the third day.” And they were greatly distressed.[Mt 17:23]

and deliver him over to the Gentiles to be mocked and flogged and crucified, and he will be raised on the third day. [Mt 20:19]

that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures,[1Cor 15:4]

One has to go by the Jewish lunar calendar. The Jewish day starts at sunset or 6:00 pm our time. So technically Jesus could have risen any time after 6 pm on Saturday.

There are rest days or sabbaths during the Passover week etc. It just happens to be Wednesday when HE was crucified and Sunday when he rose. on the 3rd day
