For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale’s belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
Matthew:12:40 -
Yeah, so Incase you didn’t figure it out yet – he didn’t die in 33 AD like it’s commonly suggested.

Luk 24:19 And he said unto them, What things? And they said unto him, Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people:
Luk 24:20 And how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him to be condemned to death, and have crucified him.
Luk 24:21 But we trusted that it had been he which should have redeemed Israel: and beside all this, to day is the third day since these things were done. -
I don’t have an issue with 3 days and 2 nights

One needs to find the Festival that was being celebrated at that time. Israel had a string of festival and also not a single Sabbath – So Jesus died on a Wednesday He spend the following periods in the grave 1. Wed evening 2. Thurs day Thurs evening 3. Friday day Fri Evening 4. Sat day – He rose Sat evening and the disciples discovered Sun day that he had risen. Remember the Jewish days started with the evening. So He three nights (evening) and three days in the tomb.

Jesus said He would be there 3 days and 3 nights. The day parts are Thursday, Friday and Saturday. The nite parts are Friday, Saturday and Sunday. He was resurrected sometime after sunset Sunday nite but before sunrise Sunday morning. Lest any of you be confused remember that the Bible is based on God’s timeline and His calendar, not the western calendar as established by Julian or was it Gregory/ Nevertheless, on God’s timeline the day starts in the evening and continues until the next. Even if Jesus were only in the tomb for 1 minute on Thursday, Jewish theology deems that as a day, not a 24-hour day but as the day of Thursday. He held to Jewish theology and His statement had nothing to do with hours just a specific number of days and nights

Three days and three nights, in those days the Jews counted any part of a a day as an entire day so Friday night was one day, All dY Saturday and Saturday night was day two, and at sunset, Would start Sunday till He rose from the grave so there we ha e three days and three nights. He died on Friday and rose on Sunday

I heard James Boyce explain why he believed Christ was sacrificed on Thursday by referencing a dating schema that by calendar had 2 feasts that particular week on successive days. Ever hear of that?

3jewish days and nights

3 days and 3 nights he was abandoned by his disciples like Jonah in the belly of the whale all alone. But he ROSE ON THE 3RD DAY.
So thats Friday he died that’s the 1st day, Saturday in the grave and Sunday which is the 3rd day he then rose. So he rose ON the 3rd day
