"And shall deliver him to the Gentiles to mock, and to scourge, and to crucify him: and THE THIRD DAY he shall rise again." Mat 20:19
"For he taught his disciples, and said unto them, The Son of man is delivered into the hands of men, and they shall kill him; and after that he is killed, he shall rise THE THIRD DAY."Mar 9:31
"And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead THE THIRD DAY:" Luk 24:46
"Him God raised up THE THIRD DAY, and shewed him openly;" Act 10:40

Friday was the first day, Saturday, the second, Sunday the third.
Hi, Stewart, This is hard to show in a short post but here goes. Good Friday has been a tradition for many years. If we go back to the 1st Passover which this Passover should match the lamb was taken up on the 10th of Nisan and sacrificed on the 14th. We must keep in mind the Jewish day begins and ends at sundown. Jesus fulfilled the feast of Passover so, it was the same as the first. We see in John 12:1 Jesus six days before the passover came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, which had been dead, whom he raised from the dead. The next day Jesus rode into Jerusalem. That would be 5 days until Passover that would be as called today Palm Sunday, Sun.10th of Nisan, the next day Mon.11th, Tue.12th, Wed.13th, Thur.14th of Nisan the Passover day. The next day is Fri the 15th the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread which is a holy day.
Jesus said he would be in the grave for 3 days and 3 nights. Some say Fri, Sat, Sun. on the third day. Ok, first we know Jesus was crucified on Passover day but Passover day is also a preparation day for the Feast of Unleavened Bread because that is a holy day and no work could be done except to eat. John called it a high day. When the sun went down Wednesday13th it became Passover day the night of the Lord's Supper. In the garden, the betrayal, arrest, trial, and crucifixion all were done before the sun went down that started the 15th, the night they ate the Passover. Remember the days start and end at sundown.
Fri.day15th=1day Sat. night16th=1night Sat. day16th =1day Sun, night17th =1night all equal 2 days and 2 nights Jesus rose before the sun came up.
Thur. day=1day Fri. night=1night Fri.day=1day Sat night =1night=1night Sun night=1night Jesus rose befor the sun came up. All = 3 days and 3 nights.
I hope this was not too confusing but if you read in Exodus the first Passover will help. Many think they ate the Passover meal on the 14th but it was eaten the night of the 15th, that is part of the confusion. Ron
Hey Stewart, Sorry for any confusion. If you study from Matthew 21-28, Mark 11-15Luke 19-22 John12-13 This covers after Jesus rode into Jerusalem to when he was crucified. You can study and decide for yourself what day Jesus was crucified. Remember a Jewish day starts and ends at sundown. Here is a few verses may help. Read Luke 22:15-16 and John 18:28. One thought if Jesus was crucified on Wednesday the next day would be the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, that would be a holy day and they could have gone to the tomb on Friday.
The day Jesus was crucified is a discussion that should not cause division or confusion so, let the Spirit lead you and the scriptures interpret the scriptures for yourself, what we do is done unto the Lord.
Take it slowly. It's not meant to be quick. Understanding is like that. Remember Adam and Eve in the garden? They lacked understanding. But after receiving the spirit of evil by eating the forbidden fruit, then understanding started to grow in them. God bless you
Friday,Saturday and rose Sunday morning. A evening and the next morning is a day according to the creation story. So Friday evening to Sunday morning is 3 days. God bless you
Biblically the first SECOND in a day is considered a whole 24 hour. So even though Jesus was crucified and buried Friday evening, that's 24 hours, all day Friday. He laid in the tomb the whole day Saturday, "SABBATH." He rose from the grave early Sunday morning, a whole 24 hour. A day biblically is 24 hours. Hope you see. God bless you
Everyday starts by a second, then to a minute, then to a hour and so on. At that very second a day starts, it's considered an entire day according to the Bible. This is why God says to Adam, "in the day you eat," meaning the whole day. The very word day means 24 hours. God bless you
The Israelites day ended at sundown. So, Monday at sundown became Tuesday morning about 6 pm.
You have to take into account that Jesus was crucified before the "high sabbath" (feast of Unleavened bread), which was separate from the weekly sabbath (Friday at sundown through Saturday at sundown).
JESUS WAS CRUCIFIED IN THE MIDST OF THE WEEK = Wednesday ( Daniel 9:27).
The Roman soldiers had to remove His dead body from the cross at sundown, Wednesday, by Jewish law.
Jesus was resurrected Saturday at sundown, at the end of the weekly sabbath, beginning Sunday (Sunday is the 1st day of the week).
Listen to this: "Now when Jesus was risen early the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven devils." Mark 16:9
To talk about JESUS, is a transcending of all cultures and times. Jesus is not and cannot be only for one people or one race of people. His death on the altar of the cross is for chosen people of all nations and tongues of the whole world. This is the greatest LOVE of all. God bless you
The word "MIDST" is not the same as the word "MIDDLE." Midst means amongst and middle means middle. Back to the garden of Eden again. When God said to Adam, "the tree in the midst of the garden," God here is showing Adam that this tree in particular, amongst the other trees.
So yes, Friday is amongst the days of the week. Not the first day nor the last day, those 2 days, Sunday and Saturday, have their special positions. Jesus rose early in the morning, not at sundown. Hope you see. God bless you
Remember in the creation story where it says "the evening and the morning were the first day" and so on? Well this shows that a day here is evening and morning not sundown and sundown.
Jesus die Friday evening and was placed in the tomb, that's one day. He laid in the tomb all day Saturday morning and evening, indicating the Sabbath which is absolutely no work; the second day. He rose from the grave Sunday morning, indicating the New Sabbath, the third day.
Keep in mind the first second in a day is a complete 24 hour day, biblically. Also to keep in mind is a day to God is like 1000 years and 1000 years a day ( 2 Peter 3:8). Since Jesus was crucified over 2000 years ago, that means we are now in the third day of His resurrection which could be the time of His coming any moment now. God bless you
The day of His crucifixion has been debated between Wednesday and Friday before He rose on Sunday.
"And shall deliver him to the Gentiles to mock, and to scourge, and to crucify him: and THE THIRD DAY he shall rise again." Mat 20:19
"For he taught his disciples, and said unto them, The Son of man is delivered into the hands of men, and they shall kill him; and after that he is killed, he shall rise THE THIRD DAY."Mar 9:31
"And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead THE THIRD DAY:" Luk 24:46
"Him God raised up THE THIRD DAY, and shewed him openly;" Act 10:40
"And that he was buried, and that he rose again THE THIRD DAY according to the scriptures:" 1Co 15:4
Friday was the first day, Saturday, the second, Sunday the third.
Jesus said he would be in the grave for 3 days and 3 nights. Some say Fri, Sat, Sun. on the third day. Ok, first we know Jesus was crucified on Passover day but Passover day is also a preparation day for the Feast of Unleavened Bread because that is a holy day and no work could be done except to eat. John called it a high day. When the sun went down Wednesday13th it became Passover day the night of the Lord's Supper. In the garden, the betrayal, arrest, trial, and crucifixion all were done before the sun went down that started the 15th, the night they ate the Passover. Remember the days start and end at sundown.
Fri.day15th=1day Sat. night16th=1night Sat. day16th =1day Sun, night17th =1night all equal 2 days and 2 nights Jesus rose before the sun came up.
Thur. day=1day Fri. night=1night Fri.day=1day Sat night =1night=1night Sun night=1night Jesus rose befor the sun came up. All = 3 days and 3 nights.
I hope this was not too confusing but if you read in Exodus the first Passover will help. Many think they ate the Passover meal on the 14th but it was eaten the night of the 15th, that is part of the confusion. Ron
"the 6th trumpet the 2nd woe. If we read Revelation 11 and Revelation 12 it was the third woe the final woe"
You misspoke. The 7th trumpet is the 3rd woe.
I must say this is a defining moment. You almost had me...
Revelation 12:12 will just have to wait a little season. Rev 12:12 will be given robes like their fellow servants.
God Bless America
I and I's is logical.
Thank you
Bless you!

I'm not quite understanding your post to me. Could you be so kind to clarify "2 men say there Jesus." Thanks. God bless you
Jesus died Wednesday at sundown and was removed from the cross because of the high sabbath
Jesus was resurrected Saturday at sundown beginning the weekly sabbath.
From Wednesday at sundown to Thursday at sundown = 1 day
From Thursday at sundown to Friday at sundown = 2 days
From Friday at sundown to Saturday at sundown = 3 days
fri/sat @morn
sat/sun @morn
sun/mon @morn = 3 full days or 72 hours
How can that possibly be right, and how can you teach that. You are guessing!!!
Biblically the first SECOND in a day is considered a whole 24 hour. So even though Jesus was crucified and buried Friday evening, that's 24 hours, all day Friday. He laid in the tomb the whole day Saturday, "SABBATH." He rose from the grave early Sunday morning, a whole 24 hour. A day biblically is 24 hours. Hope you see. God bless you
