All Jonas 4:11 Ninevite postgraduates for Course 'Three days and three nights' to enrol at Dean Ronald Noletters!

Can't debate like a follower of Jesus, so you resort to enlarging and emboldening your ad-hominems! I expect this of the heathen but not one who professes to be a follower of Jesus!

From a 21st Century mindset looking at a first ccentury mind writing- maybe. but historically??? NO!
I'm not convinced that the first century mindset was any different. Two nights. That's all you got. Not three as Jesus said.

IT came Providentially - is God-sent, TO BE USED for the proclamation of the Gospel Truth of Jesus Christ to every nation and tribe in all tongues and dialects SO THAT NO ONE could say, I could not read or come to THE knowledge of Jesus Christ because of small print or any kind of illegibility like SPIRITUAL BLINDNESS!

Yep! They rushed to bury His body, because starting at sunset began a 'high day', a sabbath per the feast which was to be kept in addition to the regular weekly sabbath (John 20).
BINGO!! Thursday was a "Sabbath", and so was Saturday.

It appears you have two sabbaths on your chart.

There were TWO sabbaths that week. Per the passover requirement, the first day was to be a "high day", meaning a sabbath. That is why they rushed to bury Jesus' body on the preparation day prior to sunset, because at sunset would begin the first day of the feast, and God made that a sabbath per His passover. That had to have been the start of Thursday for that first day of the passover feast. So they could not go to Jesus' tomb to finish His burial.

Then at sunset Thursday would begin Friday, and from Friday sunset to Saturday sunset is the regular weekly sabbath (even celebrated as such by orthodox Jews to this day). So still, they could not go to Jesus' tomb to finish the burial.

Then after sunset Saturday would begin Sunday. And sometime from Saturday sunset to Sunday dawn, Jesus rose. Both Mary's then came to the tomb Sunday morning to finish the burial process, but found the tomb open, and Jesus' body gone.

Because the "three days and three nights" prophecy Jesus gave for His body being in the tomb is a 'requirement' to know the timing of His resurrection, that MUST be kept. And since it is very easy to know that He rose on Sunday morning, all one need do is remember the Hebrew reckoning of sunset to sunset for a 24 hr. period, and plot the days and nights back from Sunday morning. That period takes us back to Wednesday sunset when the three days and three nights began. That had to have been Nisan 15 that began at sunset, the first day of the feast which was the "high day" per John 19:31, which was to be a sabbath per the feast.
