Bible Question: Matthew 12:40 says Jesus would be in the heart of the earth three days and three night. Since he arose the third day, how is this explained? |
Bible Answer: Greetings vamark76, This website should help you. http://www.biblicalholidays.com/Passover/threedays.htm It has a chart of the week leading upto Christ's resurrection. Also it is also useful to know that the Jewish calendar is sunset to sunset not midnight to midnight like ours. After sunset is the next day. The day Jesus was cruxified was the day before Sabbath. Not the weekly Sabbath but the Sabbath of Unleavened Bread. It was three days, three nights just like He said. Joanna :) |
