Three days and three nights vs. The third day, In three days, After three days: Jonah 1:17 KJV - Now the LORD had prepared a great fish to swallow up Jonah. And Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights. Matthew 12:40 KJV - 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. Both verses describe an entombment: Jonah entombed inside the whale, and Jesus entombed inside the tomb (the heart of the earth is inside the earth; a tomb is inside the earth). Three days and three nights is The Sign that Jesus is The Messiah (The Christ, The Anointed). Three days and three nights is 72 hours. One day can be 12 hours; but when you have 3 days, you can't have nights missing. A full day has 24 hours: John 11:9 KJV - Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world. John 11:10 KJV - But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light in him. Jesus makes the distinction between 2 different periods of 12 hours each, day and night. Jesus knows that a day has 24 hours. He should, because he created Time. Jesus accomplished 72 hours in the grave/tomb, therefore he is The Messiah (The Christ, The Anointed). Jesus was buried on nisan 14 Wednesday just before sundown, and he rose from the dead on nisan 17 Saturday just before sundown. A Friday-to-Sunday burial would be 36 hours, or 1 1/2 days. A Thursday-to-Sunday burial would be 60 hours, or 2 1/2 days. Three Days and Three Nights is The Sign: 72 hours. All 3 of the following expressions also mean 72 hours: The Third day. In Three Days. After Three Days. Let's start with The Third Day: Genesis 1:5 KJV - And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. Genesis 1:8 KJV - And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day. Genesis 1:13 KJV - And the evening and the morning were the third day. The first 3 days of The Creation were 72 hours: 3 days and 3 nights, just like Matthew 12:40 KJV is 72 hours, 3 days and 3 nights. The Third Day is also 72 hours. The next expression is In Three Days: Matthew 26:59 KJV - Now the chief priests, and elders, and all the council, sought false witness against Jesus, to put him to death; Matthew 26:60 KJV - But found none: yea, though many false witnesses came, yet found they none. At the last came two false witnesses, Matthew 26:61 KJV - And said, This fellow said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days. This passage with In Three Days is a public reference to John chapter 2. Jesus cleansed the temple, and the Jews asked for a Sign: John 2:18 KJV - Then answered the Jews and said unto him, What sign shewest thou unto us, seeing that thou doest these things? John 2:19 KJV - Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. John 2:20 KJV - Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days? John 2:21 KJV - But he spake of the temple of his body. The 2 witnesses were false witnesses because they said that Jesus said that Jesus himself is able to destroy the temple of God and to build it in three days. Jesus never said that he is able to destroy the temple of God (Herod's temple) and to build it in three days. Jesus said, (You) destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. He was talking about his own physical body. Jesus was secretly saying that when he is killed, he will resurrect In Three Days, matching Matthew 12:40 KJV, where he says that he will be in the grave Three Days and Three Nights, 72 hours. In Three Days is also 72 hours. Now the expression After Three Days: Matthew 27:62 KJV - Now the next day, that followed the day of the preparation, the chief priests and Pharisees came together unto Pilate, Matthew 27:63 KJV - Saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, while he was yet alive, After three days I will rise again. The After Three Days is a public reference to Matthew12:40 KJV: Matthew 12:40 KJV - 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. Jesus also privately used the expression After Three Days: Mark 8:31 KJV - And he began to teach them, that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders, and of the chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again. Whether it's the leaders publicly hearing Jesus, or Jesus privately speaking to the apostles, all understand that After Three Days is also 72 hours (upon the completion of 72 hours), which is the same as Three Days and Three Nights. For context, here is Matthew 12:38-40 The Sign of Jonah: Matthew 12:38 KJV - Then certain of the scribes and of the Pharisees answered, saying, Master, we would see a sign from thee. Matthew 12:39 KJV - But he answered and said unto them, An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas: Matthew 12:40 KJV - 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. The Sign of Jonah is according to the scriptures: The Gospel of Jesus Christ: 1 Corinthians 15:1 KJV - Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 1 Corinthians 15:2 KJV - By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 1 Corinthians 15:3 KJV - For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 1 Corinthians 15:4 KJV - And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; and he was buried, and rose again the third day according to the scriptures. The Third Day once again is 72 hours: 3 days and 3 nights. Paul is declaring The True Gospel of Jesus Christ, which was revealed directly by Jesus Christ to Paul, stating that Jesus Christ died for the elect sheep's sins, according to the scriptures; and that Jesus Christ was buried, and rose again the third day according to the scriptures. We must search out The Scriptures. If it's not according to The Scriptures, it's not even The Gospel of Jesus Christ. There are many false gospels, anti-gospels. A Thursday-to-Sunday burial is a false gospel. A Friday-to-Sunday burial is a false gospel. 2 Peter 1:21 KJV - For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost. 2 Peter 1:20 KJV - Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. A Thursday or a Friday burial are private interpretations, and not according to The Scriptures. But a Wednesday burial and a Saturday Resurrection is According to The Scriptures: The Gospel of Jesus Christ: The Word of God, as found in The Holy Bible - King James Version - KJV. Matthew 24:35 KJV - Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. Acts 17:10 KJV - And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews. Acts 17:11 KJV - These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so. Search The Scriptures for yourself. And may truth be told! God bless!
Hi brother, I think the Lord may just see it like this based in the scriptures you provided. 00:00:00 23:59:59 Day 1: 24:00:00 to 47:59:59 Day 2: 48:00:00 to 71:59:59 Day 3: 72:00:00 to 95:59:59 hence you get the literal 72hours and the “on the third day” reconciling each other. Another example: if I fasted for 73 hours, would you say I fasted for 3days or 4days. 73/24=3.041667 (Law of mathematics) so it would be that I fasted for three days and ON that third day I stopped fasting. So I may be times throughout scripture where the Lord doesn’t count it a day until 24 hours pass and for it to be “On the third day”, 72 hours must have passed. I know technically we say that anything after 72 hours would be the 4th day. I get that we are in the midst of the 4th day. But once again, math doesn’t show it 4days. Math shows it as 3 point something days. 84/72=3.5days I hope this makes sense. I’m just a man that can be wrong but just seems like the Lord see it like this
Genesis 1:5 “evening and morning were the first day” noticed the time passed already with the past tense “were”. God didn’t count it as a day until the end. Once again, if I’m wrong then scratch all of this. I’m just pointing out what seems to be the case
@@pastorkirankumarbandi I used your video on the resurrection as a guide. Thank you. I think you mentioned something how other bible teachers say passover was on Tuesday. I believe that to be the case if you read carefully John 13:1-2 KJB. I think PSR referenced it in one of his commentaries (maybe his John 13 commentary; not the Bible PSR reference) Stay encouraged brother. Fight the good fight.

When does a day start on God's calendar? Genesis 1:5 KJV - And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. This is simple: night is first, light is second. Evening/night/darkness is first, at sundown. Morning/day/daylight is second, at sunrise. The first three 24-hour days existed without the Sun, which was created on the 4th day of Creation. Passover nisan 14 did not start at sundown on Wednesday. Passover nisan 14 had its 24 hours start on Tuesday at sundown, and continued till just before sundown on Wednesday. The first 24 hours of nisan 15 annual feast sabbath started on Wednesday at sundown. Tuesday sundown started the 24 hours of Jewish Wednesday. And Wednesday sundown started the 24 hours of Jewish Thursday. This is important, so that we are not going all over the place, and causing confusion for people.
The Spice Test: No one knew Jesus would die, or that he would die that Wednesday. Jesus had said he would be killed, but the Scriptures were closed; and it was brought to the remembrance of both the women and the apostles, following the Resurrection. The women followed Jesus throughout the events of Wednesday, therefore having no time to buy and prepare spices on Wednesday. The tomb was sealed from Thursday to Sunday, by armed guards. Thursday was a feast sabbath. Friday was the actual day the women bought and prepared spices. Saturday was a weekly sabbath. Sunday the women made their way to an empty tomb. If the death had been on a Friday, there would not be time to buy and prepare spices on Friday. Saturday would be a double sabbath: both a feast sabbath, and a weekly sabbath. Sunday would be the first day to visit the tomb; but they still had to first buy and prepare spices. If the death had been on a Thursday, there would not be time to buy and prepare spices on Thursday. That would make the next day, Friday, a feast sabbath. Saturday would be a weekly sabbath. Sunday would be the first day to visit the tomb; but they still had to first buy and prepare spices. The Friday and Thursday burial scenarios don't pass the spice test. God bless!
The two Salvations: Eternal Salvation vs. Temporal Salvation Believing in Jesus Christ is simply the evidence of a predestinated elect person that was saved before the foundation of the world: before Creation itself. An already eternally saved person professes Christ, who is sealed to eternal life, not to obtain eternal life. No works can obtain eternal life; works are simply the evidence of a person who already has eternal life. The distinction is that there are 2 salvations: eternal salvation, and temporal salvation here in time. Eternal salvation is sealed by God, through his grace: undeserved mercy. No works can buy eternal life. God is the one who did all the work, being God's freewill. We have no freewill for eternal salvation; if we did, we would screw it up. The other salvation: temporal salvation is obeying God while living in this world, which comes with blessings. For temporal salvation, we exercise our freewill, receiving either blessing or punishment. The Holy Bible has 2 salvations; and it is our duty and obligation to discern between the two; otherwise, there is no end to the confusion. God bless!
if Jesus died on Wednesday, why didn't the women and apostles visit the tomb on Thursday or Friday? but have to wait until saturday? They did not expect the Lord to rise again after three days!

Maybe they did, say on Friday, but couldn't do anything as the Roman soldiers were still posted, so returned home. The soldiers told them they would be there 3 days, so the women decided to return after they knew the soldiers would be gone. Stating that in the Bible wouldn't add anything.
Now that I watched whole video it's time for my long winded comment, I could just say Amen, this is was good teaching but thats not me. First off I agree with you on using days like Christmas to spread the gospel, it does work when Luke 2:11 is applied..... This is a lot to soak in so I'll have to watch again, but I did get some of it, the first thing that started jumping out at me was 3rd 3rd 3rd 3rd 3rd 3rd....... Things like that I would never notice til someone pointed it out, thats a lot of 3rd's, then you mention same thing. I just love how you use scripture to interpret scripture, which is scriptural. I get so flipping mad when I listen to a bible teacher and they start going into the Hebrew and Greek so they can make KJV bible corrections and or use a different bible perversion, what they are doing is taking away the authority of Thus saith the Lord, without a perfect bible where's the authority or who has the authority........ Then as you getting close to an hour long I started thinking, oh no you didn't even close to half what the resurrection is all about or even nailed down, or even the exact time when Jesus was nailed down, then you started hinting at continuing this very important teaching, I go thankyou Jesus. Our salvation hope is based on Jesus coming out of the grave, and yes when Mary showed up at the tomb early Jesus was long gone, can just imagine the shock she must felt when body of Christ was not there........ Also if I was a betting man which I'm not, but I will make a wager with you that if you keep teaching on resurrection day, and by only knowing you for just 1 year, sooner or later you will mention that Easter Acts 12, is only in the KJV, at least that I know of.... I heard that taught 35 years ago and that preacher said Easter is right, other perversion got Passover, which is wrong............... So far in this Laodicean church age of lukewarmness, theres only 3 or 4 real good KJV bible teachers on YT, how sad is that. Over the past 35 40 years I listen to a lot of preacher teaches and you by far are the best, you dont just scratch the surface you use the whole counsel of God's word... PS For the past 30 years there has been 4 things I go by for knowing a good bible teacher preacher, 1> ......he that winneth souls is wise. 2> The KJV only. 3> Salvation by Jesus only with no works. 4> The Baptist church.... Jesus walk 70 miles to get baptize by someone at that time only had authority to baptize. And when Judas had to be replaced at Acts 1:22......... Those are my guide lines and they guide me well........
That’s right. The Old preacher makes a note on Luke 22:1,7 and connects it to Acts 12:3 to confirm the KJB is right with the word Easter 📖. Essentially in Luke 22:1 is defined as Luke 22:7 “the DAY of unleavened bread” note the singular use which is called Passover. But in Acts 12:3, it said “then were the DAYS of unleavened bread” meaning the “DAY” (Passover) passed and it’s referring to the 7 day feast of unleavened bread hence it said “DAYS”
Three days and three nights vs. The third day, In three days, After three days: Jonah 1:17 KJV - Now the LORD had prepared a great fish to swallow up Jonah. And Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights.

Whether it's the leaders publicly hearing Jesus, or Jesus privately speaking to the apostles, all understand that After Three Days is also 72 hours (upon the completion of 72 hours), which is the same as Three Days and Three Nights. For context, here is Matthew 12:38-40 The Sign of Jonah: Matthew 12:38 KJV - Then certain of the scribes and of the Pharisees answered, saying, Master, we would see a sign from thee. Matthew 12:39 KJV - But he answered and said unto them, An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas: Matthew 12:40 KJV - 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. The Sign of Jonah is according to the scriptures: The Gospel of Jesus Christ: 1 Corinthians 15:1 KJV - Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 1 Corinthians 15:2 KJV - By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 1 Corinthians 15:3 KJV - For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 1 Corinthians 15:4 KJV - And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; and he was buried, and rose again the third day according to the scriptures. The Third Day once again is 72 hours: 3 days and 3 nights. Paul is declaring The True Gospel of Jesus Christ, which was revealed directly by Jesus Christ to Paul, stating that Jesus Christ died for the elect sheep's sins, according to the scriptures; and that Jesus Christ was buried, and rose again the third day according to the scriptures. We must search out The Scriptures. If it's not according to The Scriptures, it's not even The Gospel of Jesus Christ. There are many false gospels, anti-gospels. A Thursday-to-Sunday burial is a false gospel. A Friday-to-Sunday burial is a false gospel. 2 Peter 1:21 KJV - For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost. 2 Peter 1:20 KJV - Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. A Thursday or a Friday burial are private interpretations, and not according to The Scriptures. But a Wednesday burial and a Saturday Resurrection is According to The Scriptures: The Gospel of Jesus Christ: The Word of God, as found in The Holy Bible - King James Version - KJV. Matthew 24:35 KJV - Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. Acts 17:10 KJV - And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews. Acts 17:11 KJV - These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so. Search The Scriptures for yourself. And may truth be told! God bless!
Jesus was risen Mark 16:9 Mark 16:9 KJV - 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. Jesus was risen (alive), not the actual act of rising. Was risen is his state of being, not the rising itself. The rising happened on Saturday just before sundown. Today I can say, Jesus is risen (alive). Tomorrow, referring to today, I can say that yesterday I said that Jesus was risen. In both cases I'm referring to his being alive, his state of being, and nothing to do with his resurrection, which happened earlier. Early the first day of the week is when he appeared to Mary Magdalene, a verified fact, not his actual resurrection, which happened on Saturday just before sundown. Jesus was buried on Passover, Wednesday (nisan 14) just before sundown, and he rose on Saturday (nisan 17) just before sundown. On Sunday (nisan 18) in the morning he as the high priest was waving himself as the firstfruits of the Harvest (The Second Coming). What happened to Jesus at his first coming is what will happen to God's predestinated elect at his Second Coming: 1 Corinthians 15:20 KJV - But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept. 1 Corinthians 15:23 KJV - But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming. Now is Christ risen from the dead doesn't mean that he resurrected NOW; it rather means that he is alive (risen).
Palm Sunday Triumphal Entry: Faulty assumptions The world has told us that Jesus, riding on a donkey, had a triumphal entry into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday, and that he was crucified on Good Friday, and resurrected on Easter Sunday. Let's see whether this engrained belief stands up to the Scripture truth. John chapter 12 says that the supper in Bethany was 6 days before the passover, making the next day the palm day 5 days before the passover. Assuming this palm day is Palm Sunday, let's see whether this fits: Nisan: 8th six days before (Supper Saturday) 9th five days before (Palm Sunday) 10th four days before (Monday) 11th three days before (Tuesday) 12th two days before (Wednesday) 13th one day before (Thursday) 14th passover (Friday crucifixion) So far, every thing seems to fit, that in John 12 the palm day is five days before the passover: the palm day is nisan 9, and the passover is nisan 14. But John chapter 12 does not say that the palm day is Sunday. If the palm day were Sunday, you would correctly have a Friday crucifixion. Another red flag is that the palm day is nisan 9, but the lamb gets chosen on nisan 10 (see Exodus 12). The problem here is the assumption that the palm day is Sunday. Would you believe me if I told you that Palm Sunday is a fairytale, and that one triumphal entry is also a fairytale. Jesus is Lord of the sabbath, and the lamb gets chosen on nisan 10, making you wonder whether the palm day could be on nisan 10 a Monday, to fit the 10th as the day that the lamb gets selected. Continuing with the 10th being the day the lamb gets chosen, let's play with the schedule: Assuming nisan 10 is palm Sunday, then nisan 14 passover becomes Thursday, for a Thursday crucifixion. A second assumption, that nisan 10 is palm Saturday, then nisan 14 passover becomes Wednesday, for a Wednesday crucifixion. A third assumption, that nisan 10 is palm Friday, then nisan 14 passover becomes Tuesday, for a Tuesday crucifixion. In all the scenarios mentioned, one statement can be made: Nowhere does John chapter 12 say that the palm day is Sunday. Assuming Sunday, or Saturday, or Friday, the palm day will lead you into a maze of possible crucifixion days on nisan 14. And using only the gospel of John, it is not possible to arrive at a conclusion. You must use all 4 gospels to prove the truth. So what then is the truth? I'll start first with the timeline of crucifixion week: Nisan 8 Jesus has supper in Bethany (six days before the passover); Nisan 9 palm Friday: Jesus rides into Jerusalem on a young donkey, in judgment (five days before the passover); Nisan 10 palm Saturday: Jesus rides into Jerusalem on both an adult donkey, and a young donkey (four days before the passover); Nisan 11 Sunday (three days before the passover) Nisan 12 Monday (two days before the passover; Nisan 13 Tuesday (one day before the passover; Nisan 14 Wednesday passover crucifixion; Nisan 15 Thursday feast sabbath; Nisan 16 Friday regular business day the women bought and prepared spices; Nisan 17 Saturday Jesus Ressurects from the dead; Nisan 18 Sunday Jesus as priest waves himself as the Firstfruits of the harvest. Firstfruits (see Leviticus 23:9-11) The harvest is the Second Coming. (1 Thessalonians 4:13-18) 1 Corinthians 15:23 KJV - But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming. The key to the timeline is in Mark 11. The day Jesus went into the temple and looked round about upon all things (Palm Friday Mark 11:11) is not the same day that he cleansed the temple (Palm Saturday Mark 11:15). The passage with 1 donkey (Palm Friday) is found in Mark, Luke, and John. The passage with 2 donkeys (Palm Saturday is found only in Matthew. The passage of Jesus pronouncing Judgment over Jerusalem (Palm Friday) is found only in Luke. The passage of Jesus entering the temple and looking round about upon all things (Palm Friday) is found only in Mark 11:11. The next day (Palm Saturday) Mark records the cleansing of the temple, which is the same day that Matthew records the 2 donkeys. Jesus cleansing the temple (Palm Saturday) is recorded in Matthew, Mark, and Luke. The next day (Sunday) Mark records the drying up of the fig tree cursed on Saturday, plus Saturday also being the day that Jesus cleansed the temple. In Matthew it records that further on Jesus curses a second fig tree, which dries up immediately. Matthew also confirms that this was the day after Jesus cleansed the temple. Palm Friday: Nisan 9 First, in Mark, Luke, and John, palm Friday Jesus rides into Jerusalem in Judgment, on a young donkey (1 beast). Second, this was the day Jesus pronounced Judgment over Jerusalem, found in Luke. Third, at the end of palm Friday Jesus entered into the temple and looked round about upon all things. (Mark 11:11) The next day: Palm Saturday: Nisan 10 First, as Jesus leaves Bethany, he curses a fig tree on the way to Jerusalem. Second, in Matthew, Jesus rides into Jerusalem in Blessing, on both an adult donkey and on a young donkey (2 beasts). Third, he enters and cleanses the temple. (Mark 11:15) The next day; Sunday: Nisan 11 First, as Jesus leaves Bethany for Jerusalem, he and the disciples witness that the fig tree cursed on palm Saturday had dried up. (Mark 11:20) Second, further on, as they were entering Jerusalem, Jesus cursed a second fig tree, which dried up immediately. The account in Matthew with the 2 donkeys occurred on the same day as the cleansing of the temple, palm Saturday, and Sunday the day after was the second fig tree which dried up immediately. In conclusion, there was not 1 triumphal entry. Instead there were 2 triumphal entries, and neither one was on a Sunday. The 2 triumphal entries were on Palm Friday in Judgment; and Palm Saturday in blessing. Judgment: In the Old Testament a judge would ride on a donkey. Blessing: In the Old Testament 2 beasts of burden represented blessing. The evidence is overwhelming for Three Days and Three Nights, a burial from Nisan 14 Wednesday just before sundown, till Nisan 17 Saturday just before sundown exactly 72 hours. A day can be 12 hours, but when you have 3 days, you can't have nights missing. A full day has 2 periods of 12 hours each: John 11:9 KJV - Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world. John 11:10 KJV - But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light in him. The third day, In three days, after three days: All these expressions mean 72 hours. The word of God always has perfect correlation, and no contradictions. The following article should be required reading for any serious student of The Holy Bible - King James Version - KJV Jesus Enters Jerusalem -Twice! www.believerlinks.com/cortright/2entry.htm Also watch a TH-cam video: WHAT EXACTLY HAPPENED DURING CRUCIFIXION WEEK - THE LOVE OF GOD th-cam.com/video/bPZGqLrHpxk/w-d-xo.html
Luke 24:21 Luke 24:21 KJV - 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. This is what the Scripture says, in The Holy Bible, King James Version (KJV). We have to be mindful of which Bible is the Textus Receptus. It cannot be both KJV, and the New Age bibles. Even if a specific verse is not drastically different, we have to decide whether to read what God says, or what man says God says. This type of creativity is unwelcome to the purist. Ok, Luke 24:21 refers to today is the third day since these things were done. This verse is not referring to the burial day itself, but rather the third day since the sealing of the tomb, this being the last step of the events pertaining to The Crucifixion. Jesus was buried on Wednesday, just before sunset (also Jewish Wednesday). But the sealing of the tomb was on Jewish Thursday (after sunset on Roman Wednesday) because the Jewish leaders feared Jesus' body would be stolen by night. The word of God has no contradictions, because it is God who authored it: it is God-breathed through inspiration of his prophets; if the prophet happens to be illiterate, it is his scribe who pens it; but God dictates to the prophet what is said. We are not to read what we want a Bible passage to say; we are rather commanded by God to read what God actually says, no matter how inconvenient or uncomfortable: 2 Peter 1:20 KJV - Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. When we deviate from what The Holy Bible says, we run the risk of practising idol worship. Example: If you worship a Jesus that was buried for 36 hours from Friday till Sunday, you are worshipping another Jesus, which is not the Jesus of The Holy Bible, thereby worshipping a false Jesus. A false Jesus is an idol who cannot save you, and is abomination to God Almighty! Those who eliminate Friday as the burial day have a tendency to believe Thursday to be the burial day, because of Luke 24:21. I have to accentuate that in order to follow the Crucifixion timeline, one must understand 3 things: (1) that 3 days is 72 hours; (2) you must be familiar with the Passover in Exodus 12, and that Passover can be on any day of the week; in Crucifixion year, Passover was on Wednesday nisan 14. (3) there were 2 sabbaths sandwiching the burial: The Feast sabbath, Thursday nisan 15, and the weekly sabbath, Saturday nisan 17: the day of The Resurrection, and, praise God, also The Day of Salvation! Further on point (1), that three days and three nights is 72 hours: three 24-hour periods, with each full day being 12 hours of night and 12 hours of daylight; you cannot have three days with nights missing. Jesus was in the grave/tomb 72 hours for a Wednesday burial and a Saturday Resurrection; not 60 hours for a Thursday burial and a Sunday-morning resurrection; and not 36 hours for a Friday burial and a Sunday-morning resurrection. There are many videos and articles I've written regarding the proofs of the timeline of The Burial and The Resurrection, which I'll mention briefly here: First Jesus' definition of a day, which has 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of darkness (John 11:9,10). You can generally say that a day can be 12 hours or 24 hours; but when you have 3 days, you can't have nights missing. Three days is 72 hours. God means what he says, and he forbids adding or taking away from his word. Second, the women and the spices don't present a contradiction; they in fact prove that there were 2 sabbaths: a feast sabbath, and a weekly sabbath. The feast sabbath was Jewish Thursday, which started on Roman Wednesday at sunset. You must be familiar with Exodus 12: the ordinances of the Passover; Passover can be on any day of the week, not always the weekly sabbath. In the year of The Crucifixion, the Passover was on Wednesday, Nisan 14. Third, Mark 16:9 proves that the phrase Jesus was risen [on Sunday] is not the act of resurrecting, but his state of being: risen, because he rose from the dead on Saturday just before sunset. Fourth, the proof only gets stronger: Firstfruits. What happened to Jesus at his resurrection is what shall happen to his elect at the harvest: The Second coming. Jesus is the firstfruits of the harvest. So the question remains: if Jesus rose on Saturday just before sunset, what exactly was he doing at the tomb on Sunday morning when he encountered Mary Magdalene? The answer is that Jesus is the Firstfruits of the harvest, and he, as priest, was getting ready to wave himself to God, as The Firstfruits of the harvest. Firstfruits is explained in Leviticus 23:9-11, whereby the firstfruits are to be brought to the priest, and the priest is to wave them on the morrow after the sabbath (the day after the sabbath is Sunday). Think about it: if Jesus rises on Sunday, how could the priest lawfully wave the firstfruits on that same Sunday, when he is commanded to wave them after the sabbath. The priest must lawfully wait a week for the next weekly sabbath to pass, in order to lawfully wave The Firstfruits the next day: on Sunday a week after resurrection Sunday, which is the day after the sabbath. But since Jesus performed Firstfruits on that first Sunday, it is irrefutable proof that Jesus rose on Saturday, making that first Sunday the lawful day in which to offer himself as the firstfruits of the harvest. Isn't the word of God beautifully pure and without contradictions, and with perfect correlation, as only the mind of God is able to establish. Fifth, in reference to Genesis 8:4, upon careful study, you will find that the day Noah's Ark rested upon the mountains of Ararat, and the Saturday that Jesus rose from the dead are the same, which was nisan 17: The day of Salvation. Beyond coincidence, an act of the God of Creation, who is also the God of Salvation! Noah's Ark rested on nisan 17 of the civil calendar, and Jesus resurrected on nisan 17 of the feast calendar. God established the feast calendar in Exodus, making abib/nisan the first month of the year on the feast calendar, whereas nisan is the 7th month of the year on the civil calendar. Both on civil and feast calendars, nisan lands in March or April. God's civil year starts in autumn/fall, which is September or October. For further study, please read the articles on my TH-cam channel's community tab: youtube.com/@BIBLEWORDSANDVERSES/community Also, please watch this TH-cam video, long but fundamentally essential for discernment of the word of God. I took great pain and care in making this video, according to The Scriptures: TH-cam channel: BIBLE WORDS AND VERSES Video: THE CRUCIFIXION AND RESURRECTION OF JESUS CHRIST - THE GOD OF CREATION IS ALSO THE GOD OF SALVATION th-cam.com/video/qukdYGowRnk/w-d-xo.htmlsi=W_q4Pbhqy9q3TS4U
God versus traditions: It's ok to have an opinion; but it's more important to examine the facts of The Holy Bible - King James Version -KJV. We must be good Bereans, and examine all things Scripture, to determine whether the Bible or traditions is telling the truth, by way of logic and reason. Just because we have a 2000-year history of tradition from the Cross, it doesn't necessarily mean that we've been told the truth. The world lies to us every day, never mind the lies that can be passed on over a period of thousands of years. Bible scholars call themselves higher critics, but not to uphold or defend the word of God, but rather to criticize and attack the word of God. When we read The Holy Bible, we have to read it with a heart for God, not to debate God. Before reading the Bible, we all should pray for discernment, so that we read what is actually there, what God says: what the Bible says, rather than what the world says or what we want the Bible to say. As an example, it's faulty logic to run with a Bible verse out of context, and making it mean what we want it to mean, instead of analyzing the various related verses and passages, in order to obtain a deeper understanding. When reading the Bible, it's also a good idea to pay attention to the audience of the passage being read. As an example, Paul writes his letters/epistles to the elect (already eternally saved people), not to the world at large. Eternally saved people are the predestinated elect. If one believes with a sincere heart that Jesus Christ is the son of the living God, that is merely the evidence of being elect. The belief is the evidence that we have eternal life. If we had to believe as a condition to go to heaven, that belief would be a work, and no works can buy our way into heaven. The elect go to heaven because it is a gift of God, through his grace (undeserved mercy). Read Ephesians chapters 1 and 2. Also read Romans chapters 8 and 9. The Bible is not a book on how to get to heaven. The Bible is a book written to eternally saved people, telling them how they got eternally saved, by the finished work of Jesus Christ. A logical study of the events of Crucifixion week is very time-consuming; but as we proceed and learn more, the reward is priceless. No one can know every thing about the Bible; but on this topic of Crucifixion week, as well as the major themes of the Bible (creation, death, salvation), I can say that I've done my homework and found the facts. The study has been fascinating, way beyond any thing that traditions teach. Truth is truly stranger, and more interesting than fiction. I've gone on to do TH-cam videos, and community posts on my TH-cam channel. I've laid the evidence, which cannot be disproven. And I can't stress enough that you use The King James Bible (KJV), The Holy Bible itself, the undiluted word of God, as there is a New Age Movement of Bibles, about 900 bibles that may look similar to the King James; but when you examine critical doctrine, they greatly differ, even from each other. Don't waste your time; read KJV. Accept no poor imitations. Let's examine point-by-point a few things: My premises would be incorrect, if you prove, through Scripture, that they are incorrect. There, in fact, is evidence of 2 Triumphal Entries; you must analyze the timeline in Mark, using the 4 gospel books, even other passages such as Paul's epistles. The whole Bible is at your disposal for reference. I've written an article called Palm Sunday Triumphal Entry: faulty assumptions, in which I made reference to a unique article called Jesus Enters Jerusalem - Twice! This unique article is eye-opening and should be required reading in every classroom, and all Bible readers should read it. You can also find all my videos and articles on my TH-cam channel's community tab, including the mentioned article on 2 Entries, whose link is provided. Also watch my video called Timeline of Crucifixion Week, as well as my big video, called The Crucifixion and Resurrection of Jesus Christ - The God of Creation Is Also the God of Salvation. Reread my article on Palm Sunday Triumphal Entry: faulty assumptions. If you don't take the time to study and absorb these teachings, you will have no excuse for not knowing the truth, and continue to place your stock on traditions, rather than the word of God. God values his holy name; but he places an even greater value on his words. God means what he says, and every word is important. That is why you need to read the King James, the undiluted word of God. As regards the second triumphal entry, on Saturday, you very well know that the restriction of activities on the sabbath is a restriction of the Pharisees, out of what they brought back from the Babylonian Captivity, not prohibited by God Almighty, Jesus Christ, who is Lord of the sabbath. If you will carefully examine all the gospels, you will find that all the gospels are in perfect harmony. You may conclude that the women came to the tomb at dawn, and that the women came twice to the tomb. The first time, the tomb was empty. The second time, Jesus encountered Mary Magdalene; and a little later, Jesus met all the women on the road, as they were making their way to the Apostles. Read the articles I mentioned, and watch the videos I mentioned. Reread the 4 gospels. And if you want, you may continue to listen to the scholars and their traditions. But I'm hoping you will rise above the scholars and do your own homework, your own research. And after you do your own research, your opinion might still differ from mine, which is ok. But I believe God will open the Scriptures if you proceed with a heart for God, not to debate God. God bless! Below are the links to the unique article plus the 2 videos: www.believerlinks.com/cortright/2entry.htm th-cam.com/video/p9wGrLiN2QU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=CJ8qaC-MyLbIrysi th-cam.com/video/qukdYGowRnk/w-d-xo.htmlsi=DpPHOp-FiPUy9Qei
Does The Holy Bible say that Jesus was crucified on Friday and resurrected on Sunday? The simple answer is no. The Bible says that on the first day of the week the women found an empty tomb: He is risen: Matthew 28:6 KJV - He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay. Mark 16:6 KJV - And he saith unto them, Be not affrighted: Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth, which was crucified: he is risen; he is not here: behold the place where they laid him. Luke 24:1 KJV - Now upon the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they came unto the sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain others with them. Luke 24:2 KJV - And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre. Luke 24:3 KJV - And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus. Luke 24:6 KJV - He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you when he was yet in Galilee, Was risen: Mark 16:9 KJV - 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 KJV may be one of the most misunderstood verses of the Bible. No matter where you want to place the comma, you are always left with this absolute fact: Jesus WAS RISEN: he was alive. It doesn't say that he rose early the first day of the week; it says that he was risen (was alive) early the first day of the week, not necessarily the day he rose from the dead. On the actual day that he rises from the dead, and at the exact time he rises from the dead, at that exact moment he rises from the dead, he is alive: he is risen. Every one knows that Jesus was crucified on the Passover day, which is nisan 14, making the next day a sabbath nisan 15. Does nisan 14 Passover have to land on Friday in any given year? Does the fourth of July land on Friday every year? Does Christmas day and New Year's day land on Friday every year? A calendar date is a set number, which can land on any day of the week in any given year. Before attempting to discredit a researcher seeking the truth of The Holy Bible, it is important to first study The Holy Bible for yourself, not taking at face value what people say, but prove all things according to God's Holy Scripture. Matthew 15:18 KJV - But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man. 1 Thessalonians 5:21 KJV - Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. 2 Corinthians 13:5 KJV - Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates? Hebrews 5:12 KJV - For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat. Hebrews 5:13 KJV - For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. Hebrews 5:14 KJV - But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil. Acts 17:10 KJV - And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews. Acts 17:11 KJV - These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so. It's important to pray to God for understanding, and to study for yourself The Holy Bible - King James Version - KJV. Study to learn what God says, not to debate God. 2 Peter 1:20 KJV - Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. Consider that a Friday crucifixion may be a private interpretation. Study KJV to know what God says. Study Exodus 12 and Leviticus 23, in order to learn about the institution and ordinances of the Passover and the other feasts. Use KJV, which is the Textus Receptus, the same scriptures used by the apostles in the First Century, instead of using hundreds of useless New Age Bibles, which are wolves in sheep's clothing, false teachers. Unfortunately many people rely solely on others, including their pastor, to tell them what the Bible says. But the only way to know the truth is to study The Holy Bible, with a heart for God, so that he can give you discernment and understanding. The gospel, God's word, is not about feelings; it's about logic and reason. When we first read the Bible, we think we know more than we know; but as God increases your knowledge and understanding, your discernment light turns on, and you start to see things more clearly. Proofs for a Wednesday to Saturday burial: Upon careful study, you will see that a day has 2 periods of 12 hours each, for a total of 24 hours. And that 3 days equal 72 hours: Christ was buried 72 hours. John 11:9 KJV - Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world. John 11:10 KJV - But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light in him. He was buried on Passover nisan 14 Wednesday just before sundown, and he rose on nisan 17 Saturday just before sundown, the day of Salvation. Nisan 17, the day of Salvation, is also the same day Noah's Ark rested upon the mountains of Ararat (Genesis 8:4 KJV). Genesis 8:4 KJV - And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat. Jesus rose on the 17th day of the first month (nisan on feast calendar). And the Ark rested on the 17th day of the seventh month (nisan on civil calendar) No matter which of the 2 calendars you use, nisan 17 always lands in March/April. Nisan 17 is the day of Salvation. That is not coincidence; it is the plan of salvation of a powerful, loving God. Mark 16:9 KJV was already explained above. Jesus WAS RISEN. He was alive on Sunday, but he rose the day before: Saturday. After all, he is Lord of the Sabbath. The women and the spices also prove a Wednesday to Saturday burial. The only business day in which to buy spices was Friday, if you have a Wednesday burial, and an annual feast sabbath Thursday, and a business day Friday to buy spices, and a weekly Saturday sabbath Resurrection. If a Saturday Resurrection, why then did Jesus speak to Mary Magdalene when she arrived at the tomb the second time? Leviticus 23:9 KJV - And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, Leviticus 23:10 KJV - Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye be come into the land which I give unto you, and shall reap the harvest thereof, then ye shall bring a sheaf of the firstfruits of your harvest unto the priest: Leviticus 23:11 KJV - And he shall wave the sheaf before the LORD, to be accepted for you: on the morrow after the sabbath the priest shall wave it. Jesus, shortly after he sent away Mary Magdalene, Jesus performed Firstfruits (Leviticus 23:9-11 KJV). He as priest was waving himself as the sheaf of the firstfruits of the harvest (the harvest is the Second Coming). Firstfruits must be presented to the priest and the priest waves the sheaf to God, on the morrow after the sabbath: the day after the sabbath, which is Sunday. A Sunday resurrection prohibits Jesus from waving the firstfruits on that same Sunday, because a sabbath must pass. He would have to wave the sheaf Sunday a week later. But since he waved firstfruits on that first Sunday, that is absolute proof that he rose on Saturday, making firstfruits lawful the next day, Sunday; not resurrection Sunday, but instead firstfruits Sunday. 1 Corinthians 15:20 KJV - But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept. 1 Corinthians 15:23 KJV - But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming. Hebrews 9:28 KJV - So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation. John 6:37 KJV - All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out. John 10:26 KJV - But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you. As you continue your studies, you may find the truth of the CruciFIXION, instead of a cruciFICTION: In the year of the CruciFIXION, Palm Sunday never happened. Good Friday never happened. Easter Sunday never happened. In the year of the CruciFIXION, this is what happened: Timeline of Crucifixion week: Nisan 8 Thursday: Jesus dines with Lazarus and his sisters (six days before the Passover, Nisan 14). Nisan 9 Friday: Palm Friday (Jesus rides into Jerusalem in Judgment). Nisan 10 Saturday: Palm Saturday (Jesus rides into Jerusalem in Blessing: the Lamb is chosen on Nisan 10). Nisan 14 Wednesday Jesus dies (the Lamb is killed on Nisan 14); he was buried just before sundown, as Thursday was about to begin. Nisan 15 Thursday: (the high sabbath, plus the sealing of the tomb). Nisan 16 Friday: The women buy and prepare spices. Nisan 17 Saturday: Jesus rose from the dead, just before sundown, as Sunday was about to begin. Nisan 18 Sunday: Firstfruits. Would the world lie to you? Man is complicated, but God is simple: 2 Corinthians 11:3 KJV - But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.

Palm Sunday Triumphal Entry: Faulty assumptions The world has told us that Jesus, riding on a donkey, had a triumphal entry into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday, and that he was crucified on Good Friday, and resurrected on Easter Sunday. Let's see whether this engrained belief stands up to the Scripture truth. John chapter 12 says that the supper in Bethany was 6 days before the passover, making the next day the palm day 5 days before the passover. Assuming this palm day is Palm Sunday, let's see whether this fits: Nisan: 8th six days before (Supper Saturday) 9th five days before (Palm Sunday) 10th four days before (Monday) 11th three days before (Tuesday) 12th two days before (Wednesday) 13th one day before (Thursday) 14th passover (Friday crucifixion) So far, every thing seems to fit, that in John 12 the palm day is five days before the passover: the palm day is nisan 9, and the passover is nisan 14. But John chapter 12 does not say that the palm day is Sunday. If the palm day were Sunday, you would correctly have a Friday crucifixion. Another red flag is that the palm day is nisan 9, but the lamb gets chosen on nisan 10 (see Exodus 12). The problem here is the assumption that the palm day is Sunday. Would you believe me if I told you that Palm Sunday is a fairytale, and that one triumphal entry is also a fairytale. Jesus is Lord of the sabbath, and the lamb gets chosen on nisan 10, making you wonder whether the palm day could be on nisan 10 a Monday, to fit the 10th as the day that the lamb gets selected. Continuing with the 10th being the day the lamb gets chosen, let's play with the schedule: Assuming nisan 10 is palm Sunday, then nisan 14 passover becomes Thursday, for a Thursday crucifixion. A second assumption, that nisan 10 is palm Saturday, then nisan 14 passover becomes Wednesday, for a Wednesday crucifixion. A third assumption, that nisan 10 is palm Friday, then nisan 14 passover becomes Tuesday, for a Tuesday crucifixion. In all the scenarios mentioned, one statement can be made: Nowhere does John chapter 12 say that the palm day is Sunday. Assuming Sunday, or Saturday, or Friday, the palm day will lead you into a maze of possible crucifixion days on nisan 14. And using only the gospel of John, it is not possible to arrive at a conclusion. You must use all 4 gospels to prove the truth. So what then is the truth? I'll start first with the timeline of crucifixion week: Nisan 8 Jesus has supper in Bethany (six days before the passover); Nisan 9 palm Friday: Jesus rides into Jerusalem on a young donkey, in judgment (five days before the passover); Nisan 10 palm Saturday: Jesus rides into Jerusalem on both an adult donkey, and a young donkey (four days before the passover); Nisan 11 Sunday (three days before the passover) Nisan 12 Monday (two days before the passover; Nisan 13 Tuesday (one day before the passover; Nisan 14 Wednesday passover crucifixion; Nisan 15 Thursday feast sabbath; Nisan 16 Friday regular business day the women bought and prepared spices; Nisan 17 Saturday Jesus Ressurects from the dead; Nisan 18 Sunday Jesus as priest waves himself as the Firstfruits of the harvest. Firstfruits (see Leviticus 23:9-11) The harvest is the Second Coming. (1 Thessalonians 4:13-18) 1 Corinthians 15:23 KJV - But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming. The key to the timeline is in Mark 11. The day Jesus went into the temple and looked round about upon all things (Palm Friday Mark 11:11) is not the same day that he cleansed the temple (Palm Saturday Mark 11:15). The passage with 1 donkey (Palm Friday) is found in Mark, Luke, and John. The passage with 2 donkeys (Palm Saturday) is found only in Matthew. The passage of Jesus pronouncing Judgment over Jerusalem (Palm Friday) is found only in Luke. The passage of Jesus entering the temple and looking round about upon all things (Palm Friday) is found only in Mark 11:11. The next day (Palm Saturday) Mark records the cleansing of the temple, which is the same day that Matthew records the 2 donkeys. Jesus cleansing the temple (Palm Saturday) is recorded in Matthew, Mark, and Luke. The next day (Sunday) Mark records the drying up of the fig tree cursed on Saturday, plus Saturday also being the day that Jesus cleansed the temple. In Matthew it records that further on Jesus curses a second fig tree, which dries up immediately. Matthew also confirms that this was the day after Jesus cleansed the temple. Palm Friday: Nisan 9 First, in Mark, Luke, and John, palm Friday Jesus rides into Jerusalem in Judgment, on a young donkey (1 beast). Second, this was the day Jesus pronounced Judgment over Jerusalem, found in Luke. Third, at the end of palm Friday Jesus entered into the temple and looked round about upon all things. (Mark 11:11) The next day: Palm Saturday: Nisan 10 First, as Jesus leaves Bethany, he curses a fig tree on the way to Jerusalem. Second, in Matthew, Jesus rides into Jerusalem in Blessing, on both an adult donkey and on a young donkey (2 beasts). Third, he enters and cleanses the temple. (Mark 11:15) The next day; Sunday: Nisan 11 First, as Jesus leaves Bethany for Jerusalem, he and the disciples witness that the fig tree cursed on palm Saturday had dried up. (Mark 11:20) Second, further on, as they were entering Jerusalem, Jesus cursed a second fig tree, which dried up immediately. The account in Matthew with the 2 donkeys occurred on the same day as the cleansing of the temple, palm Saturday, and Sunday the day after was the second fig tree which dried up immediately. In conclusion, there was not 1 triumphal entry. Instead there were 2 triumphal entries, and neither one was on a Sunday. The 2 triumphal entries were on Palm Friday in Judgment; and Palm Saturday in blessing. Judgment: In the Old Testament a judge would ride on a donkey. Blessing: In the Old Testament 2 beasts of burden represented blessing. The evidence is overwhelming for Three Days and Three Nights, a burial from Nisan 14 Wednesday just before sundown, till Nisan 17 Saturday just before sundown exactly 72 hours. A day can be 12 hours, but when you have 3 days, you can't have nights missing. A full day has 2 periods of 12 hours each: John 11:9 KJV - Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world. John 11:10 KJV - But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light in him. The third day, In three days, After three days: All these expressions mean 72 hours. The word of God always has perfect correlation, and no contradictions.

Three days and three nights vs.
The third day, In three days,
After three days:
Jonah 1:17 KJV -
Now the LORD had prepared a great fish to swallow up Jonah. And Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights.
Matthew 12:40 KJV -
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.
Both verses describe an entombment:
Jonah entombed inside the whale, and Jesus entombed inside the tomb (the heart of the earth is inside the earth; a tomb is inside the earth).
Three days and three nights is The Sign that Jesus is The Messiah (The Christ, The Anointed).
Three days and three nights is 72 hours.
One day can be 12 hours; but when you have 3 days, you can't have nights missing. A full day has 24 hours:
John 11:9 KJV -
Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world.
John 11:10 KJV -
But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light in him.
Jesus makes the distinction between 2 different periods of 12 hours each, day and night.
Jesus knows that a day has 24 hours.
He should, because he created Time.
Jesus accomplished 72 hours in the grave/tomb, therefore he is The Messiah (The Christ, The Anointed).
Jesus was buried on nisan 14 Wednesday just before sundown, and he rose from the dead on nisan 17 Saturday just before sundown.
A Friday-to-Sunday burial would be 36 hours, or 1 1/2 days.
A Thursday-to-Sunday burial would be 60 hours, or 2 1/2 days.
Three Days and Three Nights is The Sign: 72 hours.
All 3 of the following expressions also mean 72 hours:
The Third day.
In Three Days.
After Three Days.
Let's start with The Third Day:
Genesis 1:5 KJV -
And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.
Genesis 1:8 KJV -
And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.
Genesis 1:13 KJV -
And the evening and the morning were the third day.
The first 3 days of The Creation were 72 hours: 3 days and 3 nights, just like Matthew 12:40 KJV is 72 hours, 3 days and 3 nights. The Third Day is also 72 hours.
The next expression is In Three Days:
Matthew 26:59 KJV -
Now the chief priests, and elders, and all the council, sought false witness against Jesus, to put him to death;
Matthew 26:60 KJV -
But found none: yea, though many false witnesses came, yet found they none. At the last came two false witnesses,
Matthew 26:61 KJV -
And said, This fellow said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days.
This passage with In Three Days is a public reference to John chapter 2.
Jesus cleansed the temple, and the Jews asked for a Sign:
John 2:18 KJV -
Then answered the Jews and said unto him, What sign shewest thou unto us, seeing that thou doest these things?
John 2:19 KJV -
Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.
John 2:20 KJV -
Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?
John 2:21 KJV -
But he spake of the temple of his body.
The 2 witnesses were false witnesses because they said that Jesus said that Jesus himself is able to destroy the temple of God and to build it in three days.
Jesus never said that he is able to destroy the temple of God (Herod's temple) and to build it in three days.
Jesus said, (You) destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.
He was talking about his own physical body.
Jesus was secretly saying that when he is killed, he will resurrect In Three Days, matching Matthew 12:40 KJV, where he says that he will be in the grave Three Days and Three Nights, 72 hours. In Three Days is also 72 hours.
Now the expression After Three Days:
Matthew 27:62 KJV -
Now the next day, that followed the day of the preparation, the chief priests and Pharisees came together unto Pilate,
Matthew 27:63 KJV -
Saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, while he was yet alive, After three days I will rise again.
The After Three Days is a public reference to Matthew12:40 KJV:
Matthew 12:40 KJV -
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.
Jesus also privately used the expression After Three Days:
Mark 8:31 KJV -
And he began to teach them, that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders, and of the chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.
Whether it's the leaders publicly hearing Jesus, or Jesus privately speaking to the apostles, all understand that After Three Days is also 72 hours (upon the completion of 72 hours), which is the same as Three Days and Three Nights.
For context, here is Matthew 12:38-40
The Sign of Jonah:
Matthew 12:38 KJV -
Then certain of the scribes and of the Pharisees answered, saying, Master, we would see a sign from thee.
Matthew 12:39 KJV -
But he answered and said unto them, An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas:
Matthew 12:40 KJV -
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.
The Sign of Jonah is according to the scriptures:
The Gospel of Jesus Christ:
1 Corinthians 15:1 KJV -
Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
1 Corinthians 15:2 KJV -
By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
1 Corinthians 15:3 KJV -
For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
1 Corinthians 15:4 KJV -
And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; and he was buried, and rose again the third day according to the scriptures.
The Third Day once again is 72 hours:
3 days and 3 nights.
Paul is declaring The True Gospel of Jesus Christ, which was revealed directly by Jesus Christ to Paul, stating that Jesus Christ died for the elect sheep's sins, according to the scriptures; and that Jesus Christ was buried, and rose again the third day according to the scriptures.
We must search out The Scriptures.
If it's not according to The Scriptures, it's not even The Gospel of Jesus Christ.
There are many false gospels, anti-gospels.
A Thursday-to-Sunday burial is a false gospel.
A Friday-to-Sunday burial is a false gospel.
2 Peter 1:21 KJV -
For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.
2 Peter 1:20 KJV -
Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.
A Thursday or a Friday burial are private interpretations, and not according to The Scriptures.
But a Wednesday burial and a Saturday Resurrection is According to The Scriptures:
The Gospel of Jesus Christ:
The Word of God,
as found in
The Holy Bible -
King James Version -
KJV.
Matthew 24:35 KJV -
Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.
Acts 17:10 KJV -
And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews.
Acts 17:11 KJV -
These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.
Search The Scriptures for yourself.
And may truth be told!
God bless!
Hi brother, I think the Lord may just see it like this based in the scriptures you provided.
00:00:00 23:59:59
Day 1: 24:00:00 to 47:59:59
Day 2: 48:00:00 to 71:59:59
Day 3: 72:00:00 to 95:59:59
hence you get the literal 72hours and the “on the third day” reconciling each other.
Another example: if I fasted for 73 hours, would you say I fasted for 3days or 4days. 73/24=3.041667 (Law of mathematics) so it would be that I fasted for three days and ON that third day I stopped fasting. So I may be times throughout scripture where the Lord doesn’t count it a day until 24 hours pass and for it to be “On the third day”, 72 hours must have passed.
I know technically we say that anything after 72 hours would be the 4th day. I get that we are in the midst of the 4th day. But once again, math doesn’t show it 4days. Math shows it as 3 point something days.
84/72=3.5days
I hope this makes sense. I’m just a man that can be wrong but just seems like the Lord see it like this
Genesis 1:5 “evening and morning were the first day” noticed the time passed already with the past tense “were”. God didn’t count it as a day until the end.
Once again, if I’m wrong then scratch all of this. I’m just pointing out what seems to be the case
That’s a very good point brother
@@pastorkirankumarbandi I used your video on the resurrection as a guide. Thank you. I think you mentioned something how other bible teachers say passover was on Tuesday. I believe that to be the case if you read carefully John 13:1-2 KJB. I think PSR referenced it in one of his commentaries (maybe his John 13 commentary; not the Bible PSR reference)
Stay encouraged brother. Fight the good fight.

When does a day start on God's calendar?
Genesis 1:5 KJV - And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.
This is simple: night is first, light is second.
Evening/night/darkness is first, at sundown.
Morning/day/daylight is second, at sunrise.
The first three 24-hour days existed without the Sun, which was created on the 4th day of Creation.
Passover nisan 14 did not start at sundown on Wednesday. Passover nisan 14 had its 24 hours start on Tuesday at sundown, and continued till just before sundown on Wednesday.
The first 24 hours of nisan 15 annual feast sabbath started on Wednesday at sundown.
Tuesday sundown started the 24 hours of Jewish Wednesday.
And Wednesday sundown started the 24 hours of Jewish Thursday.
This is important, so that we are not going all over the place, and causing confusion for people.
The Spice Test:
No one knew Jesus would die, or that he would die that Wednesday.
Jesus had said he would be killed, but the Scriptures were closed; and it was brought to the remembrance of both the women and the apostles, following the Resurrection.
The women followed Jesus throughout the events of Wednesday, therefore having no time to buy and prepare spices on Wednesday.
The tomb was sealed from Thursday to Sunday, by armed guards.
Thursday was a feast sabbath.
Friday was the actual day the women bought and prepared spices.
Saturday was a weekly sabbath.
Sunday the women made their way to an empty tomb.
If the death had been on a Friday, there would not be time to buy and prepare spices on Friday.
Saturday would be a double sabbath: both a feast sabbath, and a weekly sabbath.
Sunday would be the first day to visit the tomb; but they still had to first buy and prepare spices.
If the death had been on a Thursday, there would not be time to buy and prepare spices on Thursday.
That would make the next day, Friday, a feast sabbath.
Saturday would be a weekly sabbath.
Sunday would be the first day to visit the tomb; but they still had to first buy and prepare spices.
The Friday and Thursday burial scenarios don't pass the spice test.
God bless!
The two Salvations:
Eternal Salvation vs. Temporal Salvation
Believing in Jesus Christ is simply the evidence of a predestinated elect person that was saved before the foundation of the world: before Creation itself.
An already eternally saved person professes Christ, who is sealed to eternal life, not to obtain eternal life.
No works can obtain eternal life; works are simply the evidence of a person who already has eternal life.
The distinction is that there are 2 salvations: eternal salvation, and temporal salvation here in time.
Eternal salvation is sealed by God, through his grace: undeserved mercy. No works can buy eternal life. God is the one who did all the work, being God's freewill. We have no freewill for eternal salvation; if we did, we would screw it up.
The other salvation: temporal salvation is obeying God while living in this world, which comes with blessings. For temporal salvation, we exercise our freewill, receiving either blessing or punishment.
The Holy Bible has 2 salvations; and it is our duty and obligation to discern between the two; otherwise, there is no end to the confusion.
God bless!
if Jesus died on Wednesday, why didn't the women and apostles visit the tomb on Thursday or Friday? but have to wait until saturday? They did not expect the Lord to rise again after three days!
Welll, your question has been specifically answered in the video.
@@pastorkirankumarbandi I do believe Jesus died on Holy Wednesday too…. just don’t know what happened on Thursday and Friday. Thank you Sir
The Spice Test:
No one knew Jesus would die, or that he would die that Wednesday.
Jesus had said he would be killed, but the Scriptures were closed; and it was brought to the remembrance of both the women and the apostles, following the Resurrection.
The women followed Jesus throughout the events of Wednesday, therefore having no time to buy and prepare spices on Wednesday.
The tomb was sealed from Thursday to Sunday, by armed guards.
Thursday was a feast sabbath.
Friday was the actual day the women bought and prepared spices.
Saturday was a weekly sabbath.
Sunday the women made their way to an empty tomb.
If the death had been on a Friday, there would not be time to buy and prepare spices on Friday.
Saturday would be a double sabbath: both a feast sabbath, and a weekly sabbath.
Sunday would be the first day to visit the tomb; but they still had to first buy and prepare spices.
If the death had been on a Thursday, there would not be time to buy and prepare spices on Thursday.
That would make the next day, Friday, a feast sabbath.
Saturday would be a weekly sabbath.
Sunday would be the first day to visit the tomb; but they still had to first buy and prepare spices.
The Friday and Thursday burial scenarios don't pass the spice test.
God bless!
Maybe they did, say on Friday, but couldn't do anything as the Roman soldiers were still posted, so returned home. The soldiers told them they would be there 3 days, so the women decided to return after they knew the soldiers would be gone. Stating that in the Bible wouldn't add anything.
Now that I watched whole video it's time for my long winded comment, I could just say Amen, this is was good teaching but thats not me. First off I agree with you on using days like Christmas to spread the gospel, it does work when Luke 2:11 is applied.....
This is a lot to soak in so I'll have to watch again, but I did get some of it, the first thing that started jumping out at me was 3rd 3rd 3rd 3rd 3rd 3rd....... Things like that I would never notice til someone pointed it out, thats a lot of 3rd's, then you mention same thing. I just love how you use scripture to interpret scripture, which is scriptural. I get so flipping mad when I listen to a bible teacher and they start going into the Hebrew and Greek so they can make KJV bible corrections and or use a different bible perversion, what they are doing is taking away the authority of Thus saith the Lord, without a perfect bible where's the authority or who has the authority........
Then as you getting close to an hour long I started thinking, oh no you didn't even close to half what the resurrection is all about or even nailed down, or even the exact time when Jesus was nailed down, then you started hinting at continuing this very important teaching, I go thankyou Jesus. Our salvation hope is based on Jesus coming out of the grave, and yes when Mary showed up at the tomb early Jesus was long gone, can just imagine the shock she must felt when body of Christ was not there........
Also if I was a betting man which I'm not, but I will make a wager with you that if you keep teaching on resurrection day, and by only knowing you for just 1 year, sooner or later you will mention that Easter Acts 12, is only in the KJV, at least that I know of.... I heard that taught 35 years ago and that preacher said Easter is right, other perversion got Passover, which is wrong...............
So far in this Laodicean church age of lukewarmness, theres only 3 or 4 real good KJV bible teachers on YT, how sad is that. Over the past 35 40 years I listen to a lot of preacher teaches and you by far are the best, you dont just scratch the surface you use the whole counsel of God's word...
PS For the past 30 years there has been 4 things I go by for knowing a good bible teacher preacher, 1> ......he that winneth souls is wise. 2> The KJV only. 3> Salvation by Jesus only with no works. 4> The Baptist church.... Jesus walk 70 miles to get baptize by someone at that time only had authority to baptize. And when Judas had to be replaced at Acts 1:22......... Those are my guide lines and they guide me well........
That’s right. The Old preacher makes a note on Luke 22:1,7 and connects it to Acts 12:3 to confirm the KJB is right with the word Easter 📖.
Essentially in Luke 22:1 is defined as Luke 22:7 “the DAY of unleavened bread” note the singular use which is called Passover. But in Acts 12:3, it said “then were the DAYS of unleavened bread” meaning the “DAY” (Passover) passed and it’s referring to the 7 day feast of unleavened bread hence it said “DAYS”
Three days and three nights vs.
The third day, In three days,
After three days:
Jonah 1:17 KJV -
Now the LORD had prepared a great fish to swallow up Jonah. And Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights.
Matthew 12:40 KJV -
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.
Both verses describe an entombment:
Jonah entombed inside the whale, and Jesus entombed inside the tomb (the heart of the earth is inside the earth; a tomb is inside the earth).
Three days and three nights is The Sign that Jesus is The Messiah (The Christ, The Anointed).
Three days and three nights is 72 hours.
One day can be 12 hours; but when you have 3 days, you can't have nights missing. A full day has 24 hours:
John 11:9 KJV -
Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world.
John 11:10 KJV -
But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light in him.
Jesus makes the distinction between 2 different periods of 12 hours each, day and night.
Jesus knows that a day has 24 hours.
He should, because he created Time.
Jesus accomplished 72 hours in the grave/tomb, therefore he is The Messiah (The Christ, The Anointed).
Jesus was buried on nisan 14 Wednesday just before sundown, and he rose from the dead on nisan 17 Saturday just before sundown.
A Friday-to-Sunday burial would be 36 hours, or 1 1/2 days.
A Thursday-to-Sunday burial would be 60 hours, or 2 1/2 days.
Three Days and Three Nights is The Sign: 72 hours.
All 3 of the following expressions also mean 72 hours:
The Third day.
In Three Days.
After Three Days.
Let's start with The Third Day:
Genesis 1:5 KJV -
And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.
Genesis 1:8 KJV -
And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.
Genesis 1:13 KJV -
And the evening and the morning were the third day.
The first 3 days of The Creation were 72 hours: 3 days and 3 nights, just like Matthew 12:40 KJV is 72 hours, 3 days and 3 nights. The Third Day is also 72 hours.
The next expression is In Three Days:
Matthew 26:59 KJV -
Now the chief priests, and elders, and all the council, sought false witness against Jesus, to put him to death;
Matthew 26:60 KJV -
But found none: yea, though many false witnesses came, yet found they none. At the last came two false witnesses,
Matthew 26:61 KJV -
And said, This fellow said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days.
This passage with In Three Days is a public reference to John chapter 2.
Jesus cleansed the temple, and the Jews asked for a Sign:
John 2:18 KJV -
Then answered the Jews and said unto him, What sign shewest thou unto us, seeing that thou doest these things?
John 2:19 KJV -
Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.
John 2:20 KJV -
Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?
John 2:21 KJV -
But he spake of the temple of his body.
The 2 witnesses were false witnesses because they said that Jesus said that Jesus himself is able to destroy the temple of God and to build it in three days.
Jesus never said that he is able to destroy the temple of God (Herod's temple) and to build it in three days.
Jesus said, (You) destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.
He was talking about his own physical body.
Jesus was secretly saying that when he is killed, he will resurrect In Three Days, matching Matthew 12:40 KJV, where he says that he will be in the grave Three Days and Three Nights, 72 hours. In Three Days is also 72 hours.
Now the expression After Three Days:
Matthew 27:62 KJV -
Now the next day, that followed the day of the preparation, the chief priests and Pharisees came together unto Pilate,
Matthew 27:63 KJV -
Saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, while he was yet alive, After three days I will rise again.
The After Three Days is a public reference to Matthew12:40 KJV:
Matthew 12:40 KJV -
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.
Jesus also privately used the expression After Three Days:
Mark 8:31 KJV -
And he began to teach them, that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders, and of the chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.
Whether it's the leaders publicly hearing Jesus, or Jesus privately speaking to the apostles, all understand that After Three Days is also 72 hours (upon the completion of 72 hours), which is the same as Three Days and Three Nights.
For context, here is Matthew 12:38-40
The Sign of Jonah:
Matthew 12:38 KJV -
Then certain of the scribes and of the Pharisees answered, saying, Master, we would see a sign from thee.
Matthew 12:39 KJV -
But he answered and said unto them, An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas:
Matthew 12:40 KJV -
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.
The Sign of Jonah is according to the scriptures:
The Gospel of Jesus Christ:
1 Corinthians 15:1 KJV -
Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
1 Corinthians 15:2 KJV -
By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
1 Corinthians 15:3 KJV -
For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
1 Corinthians 15:4 KJV -
And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; and he was buried, and rose again the third day according to the scriptures.
The Third Day once again is 72 hours:
3 days and 3 nights.
Paul is declaring The True Gospel of Jesus Christ, which was revealed directly by Jesus Christ to Paul, stating that Jesus Christ died for the elect sheep's sins, according to the scriptures; and that Jesus Christ was buried, and rose again the third day according to the scriptures.
We must search out The Scriptures.
If it's not according to The Scriptures, it's not even The Gospel of Jesus Christ.
There are many false gospels, anti-gospels.
A Thursday-to-Sunday burial is a false gospel.
A Friday-to-Sunday burial is a false gospel.
2 Peter 1:21 KJV -
For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.
2 Peter 1:20 KJV -
Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.
A Thursday or a Friday burial are private interpretations, and not according to The Scriptures.
But a Wednesday burial and a Saturday Resurrection is According to The Scriptures:
The Gospel of Jesus Christ:
The Word of God,
as found in
The Holy Bible -
King James Version -
KJV.
Matthew 24:35 KJV -
Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.
Acts 17:10 KJV -
And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews.
Acts 17:11 KJV -
These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.
Search The Scriptures for yourself.
And may truth be told!
God bless!
Jesus was risen
Mark 16:9
Mark 16:9 KJV - 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.
Jesus was risen (alive), not the actual act of rising.
Was risen is his state of being, not the rising itself.
The rising happened on Saturday just before sundown.
Today I can say, Jesus is risen (alive). Tomorrow, referring to today, I can say that yesterday I said that Jesus was risen.
In both cases I'm referring to his being alive, his state of being, and nothing to do with his resurrection, which happened earlier.
Early the first day of the week is when he appeared to Mary Magdalene, a verified fact, not his actual resurrection, which happened on Saturday just before sundown.
Jesus was buried on Passover, Wednesday (nisan 14) just before sundown, and he rose on Saturday (nisan 17) just before sundown.
On Sunday (nisan 18) in the morning he as the high priest was waving himself as the firstfruits of the Harvest (The Second Coming).
What happened to Jesus at his first coming is what will happen to God's predestinated elect at his Second Coming:
1 Corinthians 15:20 KJV - But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.
1 Corinthians 15:23 KJV - But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.
Now is Christ risen from the dead doesn't mean that he resurrected NOW; it rather means that he is alive (risen).
Palm Sunday Triumphal Entry:
Faulty assumptions
The world has told us that Jesus, riding on a donkey, had a triumphal entry into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday, and that he was crucified on Good Friday, and resurrected on Easter Sunday.
Let's see whether this engrained belief stands up to the Scripture truth.
John chapter 12 says that the supper in Bethany was 6 days before the passover, making the next day the palm day 5 days before the passover.
Assuming this palm day is Palm Sunday, let's see whether this fits:
Nisan:
8th six days before (Supper Saturday)
9th five days before (Palm Sunday)
10th four days before (Monday)
11th three days before (Tuesday)
12th two days before (Wednesday)
13th one day before (Thursday)
14th passover (Friday crucifixion)
So far, every thing seems to fit, that in John 12 the palm day is five days before the passover: the palm day is nisan 9, and the passover is nisan 14.
But John chapter 12 does not say that the palm day is Sunday.
If the palm day were Sunday, you would correctly have a Friday crucifixion.
Another red flag is that the palm day is nisan 9, but the lamb gets chosen on nisan 10 (see Exodus 12).
The problem here is the assumption that the palm day is Sunday.
Would you believe me if I told you that Palm Sunday is a fairytale, and that one triumphal entry is also a fairytale.
Jesus is Lord of the sabbath, and the lamb gets chosen on nisan 10, making you wonder whether the palm day could be on nisan 10 a Monday, to fit the 10th as the day that the lamb gets selected.
Continuing with the 10th being the day the lamb gets chosen, let's play with the schedule:
Assuming nisan 10 is palm Sunday, then nisan 14 passover becomes Thursday, for a Thursday crucifixion.
A second assumption, that nisan 10 is palm Saturday, then nisan 14 passover becomes Wednesday, for a Wednesday crucifixion.
A third assumption, that nisan 10 is palm Friday, then nisan 14 passover becomes Tuesday, for a Tuesday crucifixion.
In all the scenarios mentioned, one statement can be made:
Nowhere does John chapter 12 say that the palm day is Sunday.
Assuming Sunday, or Saturday, or Friday, the palm day will lead you into a maze of possible crucifixion days on nisan 14.
And using only the gospel of John, it is not possible to arrive at a conclusion.
You must use all 4 gospels to prove the truth.
So what then is the truth?
I'll start first with the timeline of crucifixion week:
Nisan 8 Jesus has supper in Bethany (six days before the passover);
Nisan 9 palm Friday: Jesus rides into Jerusalem on a young donkey, in judgment (five days before the passover);
Nisan 10 palm Saturday: Jesus rides into Jerusalem on both an adult donkey, and a young donkey (four days before the passover);
Nisan 11 Sunday (three days before the passover)
Nisan 12 Monday (two days before the passover;
Nisan 13 Tuesday (one day before the passover;
Nisan 14 Wednesday passover crucifixion;
Nisan 15 Thursday feast sabbath;
Nisan 16 Friday regular business day the women bought and prepared spices;
Nisan 17 Saturday Jesus Ressurects from the dead;
Nisan 18 Sunday Jesus as priest waves himself as the Firstfruits of the harvest.
Firstfruits (see Leviticus 23:9-11)
The harvest is the Second Coming.
(1 Thessalonians 4:13-18)
1 Corinthians 15:23 KJV - But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.
The key to the timeline is in Mark 11.
The day Jesus went into the temple and looked round about upon all things
(Palm Friday Mark 11:11) is not the same day that he cleansed the temple (Palm Saturday Mark 11:15).
The passage with 1 donkey (Palm Friday) is found in Mark, Luke, and John.
The passage with 2 donkeys (Palm Saturday is found only in Matthew.
The passage of Jesus pronouncing Judgment over Jerusalem (Palm Friday) is found only in Luke.
The passage of Jesus entering the temple and looking round about upon all things (Palm Friday) is found only in Mark 11:11.
The next day (Palm Saturday) Mark records the cleansing of the temple, which is the same day that Matthew records the 2 donkeys.
Jesus cleansing the temple (Palm Saturday) is recorded in Matthew, Mark, and Luke.
The next day (Sunday) Mark records the drying up of the fig tree cursed on Saturday, plus Saturday also being the day that Jesus cleansed the temple.
In Matthew it records that further on Jesus curses a second fig tree, which dries up immediately.
Matthew also confirms that this was the day after Jesus cleansed the temple.
Palm Friday:
Nisan 9
First, in Mark, Luke, and John, palm Friday Jesus rides into Jerusalem in Judgment, on a young donkey
(1 beast).
Second, this was the day Jesus pronounced Judgment over Jerusalem, found in Luke.
Third, at the end of palm Friday Jesus entered into the temple and looked round about upon all things.
(Mark 11:11)
The next day:
Palm Saturday:
Nisan 10
First, as Jesus leaves Bethany, he curses a fig tree on the way to Jerusalem.
Second, in Matthew, Jesus rides into Jerusalem in Blessing, on both an adult donkey and on a young donkey
(2 beasts).
Third, he enters and cleanses the temple.
(Mark 11:15)
The next day;
Sunday:
Nisan 11
First, as Jesus leaves Bethany for Jerusalem, he and the disciples witness that the fig tree cursed on palm Saturday had dried up.
(Mark 11:20)
Second, further on, as they were entering Jerusalem, Jesus cursed a second fig tree, which dried up immediately.
The account in Matthew with the 2 donkeys occurred on the same day as the cleansing of the temple, palm Saturday, and Sunday the day after was the second fig tree which dried up immediately.
In conclusion, there was not 1 triumphal entry.
Instead there were 2 triumphal entries, and neither one was on a Sunday.
The 2 triumphal entries were on Palm Friday in Judgment; and Palm Saturday in blessing.
Judgment:
In the Old Testament a judge would ride on a donkey.
Blessing:
In the Old Testament 2 beasts of burden represented blessing.
The evidence is overwhelming for Three Days and Three Nights,
a burial from
Nisan 14 Wednesday
just before sundown,
till
Nisan 17 Saturday
just before sundown
exactly 72 hours.
A day can be 12 hours, but when you have 3 days, you can't have nights missing.
A full day has 2 periods of 12 hours each:
John 11:9 KJV -
Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world.
John 11:10 KJV -
But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light in him.
The third day, In three days,
after three days:
All these expressions mean 72 hours.
The word of God always has perfect correlation, and no contradictions.

Also watch a TH-cam video:
WHAT EXACTLY HAPPENED DURING CRUCIFIXION WEEK - THE LOVE OF GOD
th-cam.com/video/bPZGqLrHpxk/w-d-xo.html
Luke 24:21
Luke 24:21 KJV - 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.
This is what the Scripture says, in The Holy Bible, King James Version (KJV).
We have to be mindful of which Bible is the Textus Receptus. It cannot be both KJV, and the New Age bibles.
Even if a specific verse is not drastically different, we have to decide whether to read what God says, or what man says God says. This type of creativity is unwelcome to the purist.
Ok, Luke 24:21 refers to today is the third day since these things were done.
This verse is not referring to the burial day itself, but rather the third day since the sealing of the tomb, this being the last step of the events pertaining to The Crucifixion.
Jesus was buried on Wednesday, just before sunset (also Jewish Wednesday).
But the sealing of the tomb was on Jewish Thursday (after sunset on Roman Wednesday) because the Jewish leaders feared Jesus' body would be stolen by night.
The word of God has no contradictions, because it is God who authored it: it is God-breathed through inspiration of his prophets; if the prophet happens to be illiterate, it is his scribe who pens it; but God dictates to the prophet what is said.
We are not to read what we want a Bible passage to say; we are rather commanded by God to read what God actually says, no matter how inconvenient or uncomfortable:
2 Peter 1:20 KJV - Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.
When we deviate from what The Holy Bible says, we run the risk of practising idol worship. Example: If you worship a Jesus that was buried for 36 hours from Friday till Sunday, you are worshipping another Jesus, which is not the Jesus of The Holy Bible, thereby worshipping a false Jesus.
A false Jesus is an idol who cannot save you, and is abomination to God Almighty!
Those who eliminate Friday as the burial day have a tendency to believe Thursday to be the burial day, because of Luke 24:21.
I have to accentuate that in order to follow the Crucifixion timeline, one must understand 3 things:
(1) that 3 days is 72 hours;
(2) you must be familiar with the Passover in Exodus 12, and that Passover can be on any day of the week; in Crucifixion year, Passover was on Wednesday nisan 14.
(3) there were 2 sabbaths sandwiching the burial:
The Feast sabbath, Thursday nisan 15, and the weekly sabbath, Saturday nisan 17: the day of The Resurrection, and, praise God, also The Day of Salvation!
Further on point (1), that three days and three nights is 72 hours: three 24-hour periods, with each full day being 12 hours of night and 12 hours of daylight; you cannot have three days with nights missing. Jesus was in the grave/tomb 72 hours for a Wednesday burial and a Saturday Resurrection; not 60 hours for a Thursday burial and a Sunday-morning resurrection; and not 36 hours for a Friday burial and a Sunday-morning resurrection.
There are many videos and articles I've written regarding the proofs of the timeline of The Burial and The Resurrection, which I'll mention briefly here:
First Jesus' definition of a day, which has 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of darkness (John 11:9,10).
You can generally say that a day can be 12 hours or 24 hours; but when you have 3 days, you can't have nights missing. Three days is 72 hours. God means what he says, and he forbids adding or taking away from his word.
Second, the women and the spices don't present a contradiction; they in fact prove that there were 2 sabbaths: a feast sabbath, and a weekly sabbath.
The feast sabbath was Jewish Thursday, which started on Roman Wednesday at sunset. You must be familiar with Exodus 12: the ordinances of the Passover; Passover can be on any day of the week, not always the weekly sabbath. In the year of The Crucifixion, the Passover was on Wednesday, Nisan 14.
Third, Mark 16:9 proves that the phrase Jesus was risen [on Sunday] is not the act of resurrecting, but his state of being: risen, because he rose from the dead on Saturday just before sunset.
Fourth, the proof only gets stronger: Firstfruits.
What happened to Jesus at his resurrection is what shall happen to his elect at the harvest: The Second coming.
Jesus is the firstfruits of the harvest.
So the question remains: if Jesus rose on Saturday just before sunset, what exactly was he doing at the tomb on Sunday morning when he encountered Mary Magdalene?
The answer is that Jesus is the Firstfruits of the harvest, and he, as priest, was getting ready to wave himself to God, as The Firstfruits of the harvest.
Firstfruits is explained in Leviticus 23:9-11, whereby the firstfruits are to be brought to the priest, and the priest is to wave them on the morrow after the sabbath (the day after the sabbath is Sunday).
Think about it: if Jesus rises on Sunday, how could the priest lawfully wave the firstfruits on that same Sunday, when he is commanded to wave them after the sabbath. The priest must lawfully wait a week for the next weekly sabbath to pass, in order to lawfully wave The Firstfruits the next day: on Sunday a week after resurrection Sunday, which is the day after the sabbath.
But since Jesus performed Firstfruits on that first Sunday, it is irrefutable proof that Jesus rose on Saturday, making that first Sunday the lawful day in which to offer himself as the firstfruits of the harvest.
Isn't the word of God beautifully pure and without contradictions, and with perfect correlation, as only the mind of God is able to establish.
Fifth, in reference to Genesis 8:4, upon careful study, you will find that the day Noah's Ark rested upon the mountains of Ararat, and the Saturday that Jesus rose from the dead are the same, which was nisan 17: The day of Salvation. Beyond coincidence, an act of the God of Creation, who is also the God of Salvation!
Noah's Ark rested on nisan 17 of the civil calendar, and Jesus resurrected on nisan 17 of the feast calendar.
God established the feast calendar in Exodus, making abib/nisan the first month of the year on the feast calendar, whereas nisan is the 7th month of the year on the civil calendar. Both on civil and feast calendars, nisan lands in March or April.
God's civil year starts in autumn/fall, which is September or October.

God versus traditions:
It's ok to have an opinion; but it's more important to examine the facts of The Holy Bible - King James Version -KJV. We must be good Bereans, and examine all things Scripture, to determine whether the Bible or traditions is telling the truth, by way of logic and reason.
Just because we have a 2000-year history of tradition from the Cross, it doesn't necessarily mean that we've been told the truth.
The world lies to us every day, never mind the lies that can be passed on over a period of thousands of years.
Bible scholars call themselves higher critics, but not to uphold or defend the word of God, but rather to criticize and attack the word of God.
When we read The Holy Bible, we have to read it with a heart for God, not to debate God.
Before reading the Bible, we all should pray for discernment, so that we read what is actually there, what God says: what the Bible says, rather than what the world says or what we want the Bible to say.
As an example, it's faulty logic to run with a Bible verse out of context, and making it mean what we want it to mean, instead of analyzing the various related verses and passages, in order to obtain a deeper understanding.
When reading the Bible, it's also a good idea to pay attention to the audience of the passage being read. As an example, Paul writes his letters/epistles to the elect (already eternally saved people), not to the world at large.
Eternally saved people are the predestinated elect. If one believes with a sincere heart that Jesus Christ is the son of the living God, that is merely the evidence of being elect. The belief is the evidence that we have eternal life. If we had to believe as a condition to go to heaven, that belief would be a work, and no works can buy our way into heaven. The elect go to heaven because it is a gift of God, through his grace (undeserved mercy). Read Ephesians chapters 1 and 2. Also read Romans chapters 8 and 9.
The Bible is not a book on how to get to heaven. The Bible is a book written to eternally saved people, telling them how they got eternally saved, by the finished work of Jesus Christ.
A logical study of the events of Crucifixion week is very time-consuming; but as we proceed and learn more, the reward is priceless.
No one can know every thing about the Bible; but on this topic of Crucifixion week, as well as the major themes of the Bible (creation, death, salvation), I can say that I've done my homework and found the facts. The study has been fascinating, way beyond any thing that traditions teach. Truth is truly stranger, and more interesting than fiction. I've gone on to do TH-cam videos, and community posts on my TH-cam channel. I've laid the evidence, which cannot be disproven.
And I can't stress enough that you use The King James Bible (KJV), The Holy Bible itself, the undiluted word of God, as there is a New Age Movement of Bibles, about 900 bibles that may look similar to the King James; but when you examine critical doctrine, they greatly differ, even from each other. Don't waste your time; read KJV. Accept no poor imitations.
Let's examine point-by-point a few things:
My premises would be incorrect, if you prove, through Scripture, that they are incorrect.
There, in fact, is evidence of
2 Triumphal Entries; you must analyze the timeline in Mark, using the 4 gospel books, even other passages such as Paul's epistles. The whole Bible is at your disposal for reference.
I've written an article called Palm Sunday Triumphal Entry: faulty assumptions, in which I made reference to a unique article called Jesus Enters Jerusalem - Twice!
This unique article is eye-opening and should be required reading in every classroom, and all Bible readers should read it. You can also find all my videos and articles on my TH-cam channel's community tab, including the mentioned article on 2 Entries, whose link is provided. Also watch my video called Timeline of Crucifixion Week, as well as my big video, called The Crucifixion and Resurrection of Jesus Christ - The God of Creation Is Also the God of Salvation.
Reread my article on Palm Sunday Triumphal Entry: faulty assumptions.
If you don't take the time to study and absorb these teachings, you will have no excuse for not knowing the truth, and continue to place your stock on traditions, rather than the word of God.
God values his holy name; but he places an even greater value on his words. God means what he says, and every word is important. That is why you need to read the King James, the undiluted word of God.
As regards the second triumphal entry, on Saturday, you very well know that the restriction of activities on the sabbath is a restriction of the Pharisees, out of what they brought back from the Babylonian Captivity, not prohibited by God Almighty, Jesus Christ, who is Lord of the sabbath.
If you will carefully examine all the gospels, you will find that all the gospels are in perfect harmony. You may conclude that the women came to the tomb at dawn, and that the women came twice to the tomb. The first time, the tomb was empty. The second time, Jesus encountered Mary Magdalene; and a little later, Jesus met all the women on the road, as they were making their way to the Apostles.
Read the articles I mentioned, and watch the videos I mentioned. Reread the 4 gospels.
And if you want, you may continue to listen to the scholars and their traditions.
But I'm hoping you will rise above the scholars and do your own homework, your own research. And after you do your own research, your opinion might still differ from mine, which is ok. But I believe God will open the Scriptures if you proceed with a heart for God, not to debate God.
God bless!

Does The Holy Bible say that Jesus was crucified on Friday and resurrected on Sunday?
The simple answer is no.
The Bible says that on the first day of the week the women found an empty tomb:
He is risen:
Matthew 28:6 KJV -
He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.
Mark 16:6 KJV -
And he saith unto them, Be not affrighted: Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth, which was crucified: he is risen; he is not here: behold the place where they laid him.
Luke 24:1 KJV -
Now upon the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they came unto the sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain others with them.
Luke 24:2 KJV -
And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre.
Luke 24:3 KJV -
And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus.
Luke 24:6 KJV -
He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you when he was yet in Galilee,
Was risen:
Mark 16:9 KJV -
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 KJV may be one of the most misunderstood verses of the Bible.
No matter where you want to place the comma, you are always left with this absolute fact: Jesus WAS RISEN:
he was alive.
It doesn't say that he rose early the first day of the week; it says that he was risen (was alive) early the first day of the week, not necessarily the day he rose from the dead.
On the actual day that he rises from the dead, and at the exact time he rises from the dead, at that exact moment he rises from the dead, he is alive: he is risen.
Every one knows that Jesus was crucified on the Passover day, which is nisan 14, making the next day a sabbath nisan 15.
Does nisan 14 Passover have to land on Friday in any given year?
Does the fourth of July land on Friday every year?
Does Christmas day and New Year's day land on Friday every year?
A calendar date is a set number, which can land on any day of the week in any given year.
Before attempting to discredit a researcher seeking the truth of The Holy Bible, it is important to first study The Holy Bible for yourself, not taking at face value what people say, but prove all things according to God's Holy Scripture.
Matthew 15:18 KJV -
But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man.
1 Thessalonians 5:21 KJV - Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.
2 Corinthians 13:5 KJV - Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?
Hebrews 5:12 KJV -
For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.
Hebrews 5:13 KJV -
For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.
Hebrews 5:14 KJV -
But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.
Acts 17:10 KJV -
And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews.
Acts 17:11 KJV -
These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.
It's important to pray to God for understanding, and to study for yourself The Holy Bible - King James Version - KJV. Study to learn what God says, not to debate God.
2 Peter 1:20 KJV -
Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.
Consider that a Friday crucifixion may be a private interpretation. Study KJV to know what God says.
Study Exodus 12 and Leviticus 23, in order to learn about the institution and ordinances of the Passover and the other feasts.
Use KJV, which is the Textus Receptus, the same scriptures used by the apostles in the First Century, instead of using hundreds of useless New Age Bibles, which are wolves in sheep's clothing, false teachers.
Unfortunately many people rely solely on others, including their pastor, to tell them what the Bible says. But the only way to know the truth is to study The Holy Bible, with a heart for God, so that he can give you discernment and understanding.
The gospel, God's word, is not about feelings; it's about logic and reason.
When we first read the Bible, we think we know more than we know; but as God increases your knowledge and understanding, your discernment light turns on, and you start to see things more clearly.
Proofs for a Wednesday to Saturday burial:
Upon careful study, you will see that a day has 2 periods of 12 hours each, for a total of 24 hours. And that 3 days equal 72 hours: Christ was buried 72 hours.
John 11:9 KJV -
Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world.
John 11:10 KJV -
But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light in him.
He was buried on Passover nisan 14 Wednesday just before sundown, and he rose on nisan 17 Saturday just before sundown, the day of Salvation.
Nisan 17, the day of Salvation, is also the same day Noah's Ark rested upon the mountains of Ararat (Genesis 8:4 KJV).
Genesis 8:4 KJV - And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.
Jesus rose on the 17th day of the first month (nisan on feast calendar).
And the Ark rested on the 17th day of the seventh month (nisan on civil calendar)
No matter which of the 2 calendars you use, nisan 17 always lands in March/April.
Nisan 17 is the day of Salvation. That is not coincidence; it is the plan of salvation of a powerful, loving God.
Mark 16:9 KJV was already explained above.
Jesus WAS RISEN.
He was alive on Sunday, but he rose the day before: Saturday. After all, he is Lord of the Sabbath.
The women and the spices also prove a Wednesday to Saturday burial. The only business day in which to buy spices was Friday, if you have a Wednesday burial, and an annual feast sabbath Thursday, and a business day Friday to buy spices, and a weekly Saturday sabbath Resurrection.
If a Saturday Resurrection, why then did Jesus speak to Mary Magdalene when she arrived at the tomb the second time?
Leviticus 23:9 KJV -
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Leviticus 23:10 KJV -
Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye be come into the land which I give unto you, and shall reap the harvest thereof, then ye shall bring a sheaf of the firstfruits of your harvest unto the priest:
Leviticus 23:11 KJV -
And he shall wave the sheaf before the LORD, to be accepted for you: on the morrow after the sabbath the priest shall wave it.
Jesus, shortly after he sent away Mary Magdalene, Jesus performed Firstfruits (Leviticus 23:9-11 KJV).
He as priest was waving himself as the sheaf of the firstfruits of the harvest (the harvest is the Second Coming).
Firstfruits must be presented to the priest and the priest waves the sheaf to God, on the morrow after the sabbath: the day after the sabbath, which is Sunday.
A Sunday resurrection prohibits Jesus from waving the firstfruits on that same Sunday, because a sabbath must pass. He would have to wave the sheaf Sunday a week later.
But since he waved firstfruits on that first Sunday, that is absolute proof that he rose on Saturday, making firstfruits lawful the next day, Sunday; not resurrection Sunday, but instead firstfruits Sunday.
1 Corinthians 15:20 KJV -
But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.
1 Corinthians 15:23 KJV -
But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.
Hebrews 9:28 KJV -
So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.
John 6:37 KJV -
All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.
John 10:26 KJV -
But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you.
As you continue your studies, you may find the truth of the CruciFIXION, instead of a cruciFICTION:
In the year of the CruciFIXION,
Palm Sunday never happened.
Good Friday never happened.
Easter Sunday never happened.
In the year of the CruciFIXION, this is what happened:
Timeline of Crucifixion week:
Nisan 8 Thursday:
Jesus dines with Lazarus and his sisters (six days before the Passover, Nisan 14).
Nisan 9 Friday:
Palm Friday (Jesus rides into Jerusalem in Judgment).
Nisan 10 Saturday:
Palm Saturday (Jesus rides into Jerusalem in Blessing: the Lamb is chosen on Nisan 10).
Nisan 14 Wednesday
Jesus dies (the Lamb is killed on Nisan 14); he was buried just before sundown, as Thursday was about to begin.
Nisan 15 Thursday:
(the high sabbath, plus the sealing of the tomb).
Nisan 16 Friday:
The women buy and prepare spices.
Nisan 17 Saturday:
Jesus rose from the dead, just before sundown, as Sunday was about to begin.
Nisan 18 Sunday:
Firstfruits.
Would the world lie to you?
Man is complicated, but God is simple:
2 Corinthians 11:3 KJV -
But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
God bless!

Palm Sunday Triumphal Entry:
Faulty assumptions
The world has told us that Jesus, riding on a donkey, had a triumphal entry into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday, and that he was crucified on Good Friday, and resurrected on Easter Sunday.
Let's see whether this engrained belief stands up to the Scripture truth.
John chapter 12 says that the supper in Bethany was 6 days before the passover, making the next day the palm day 5 days before the passover.
Assuming this palm day is Palm Sunday, let's see whether this fits:
Nisan:
8th six days before (Supper Saturday)
9th five days before (Palm Sunday)
10th four days before (Monday)
11th three days before (Tuesday)
12th two days before (Wednesday)
13th one day before (Thursday)
14th passover (Friday crucifixion)
So far, every thing seems to fit, that in John 12 the palm day is five days before the passover: the palm day is nisan 9, and the passover is nisan 14.
But John chapter 12 does not say that the palm day is Sunday.
If the palm day were Sunday, you would correctly have a Friday crucifixion.
Another red flag is that the palm day is nisan 9, but the lamb gets chosen on nisan 10 (see Exodus 12).
The problem here is the assumption that the palm day is Sunday.
Would you believe me if I told you that Palm Sunday is a fairytale, and that one triumphal entry is also a fairytale.
Jesus is Lord of the sabbath, and the lamb gets chosen on nisan 10, making you wonder whether the palm day could be on nisan 10 a Monday, to fit the 10th as the day that the lamb gets selected.
Continuing with the 10th being the day the lamb gets chosen, let's play with the schedule:
Assuming nisan 10 is palm Sunday, then nisan 14 passover becomes Thursday, for a Thursday crucifixion.
A second assumption, that nisan 10 is palm Saturday, then nisan 14 passover becomes Wednesday, for a Wednesday crucifixion.
A third assumption, that nisan 10 is palm Friday, then nisan 14 passover becomes Tuesday, for a Tuesday crucifixion.
In all the scenarios mentioned, one statement can be made:
Nowhere does John chapter 12 say that the palm day is Sunday.
Assuming Sunday, or Saturday, or Friday, the palm day will lead you into a maze of possible crucifixion days on nisan 14.
And using only the gospel of John, it is not possible to arrive at a conclusion.
You must use all 4 gospels to prove the truth.
So what then is the truth?
I'll start first with the timeline of crucifixion week:
Nisan 8 Jesus has supper in Bethany (six days before the passover);
Nisan 9 palm Friday: Jesus rides into Jerusalem on a young donkey, in judgment (five days before the passover);
Nisan 10 palm Saturday: Jesus rides into Jerusalem on both an adult donkey, and a young donkey (four days before the passover);
Nisan 11 Sunday (three days before the passover)
Nisan 12 Monday (two days before the passover;
Nisan 13 Tuesday (one day before the passover;
Nisan 14 Wednesday passover crucifixion;
Nisan 15 Thursday feast sabbath;
Nisan 16 Friday regular business day the women bought and prepared spices;
Nisan 17 Saturday Jesus Ressurects from the dead;
Nisan 18 Sunday Jesus as priest waves himself as the Firstfruits of the harvest.
Firstfruits (see Leviticus 23:9-11)
The harvest is the Second Coming.
(1 Thessalonians 4:13-18)
1 Corinthians 15:23 KJV - But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.
The key to the timeline is in Mark 11.
The day Jesus went into the temple and looked round about upon all things
(Palm Friday Mark 11:11) is not the same day that he cleansed the temple (Palm Saturday Mark 11:15).
The passage with 1 donkey (Palm Friday) is found in Mark, Luke, and John.
The passage with 2 donkeys (Palm Saturday) is found only in Matthew.
The passage of Jesus pronouncing Judgment over Jerusalem (Palm Friday) is found only in Luke.
The passage of Jesus entering the temple and looking round about upon all things (Palm Friday) is found only in Mark 11:11.
The next day (Palm Saturday) Mark records the cleansing of the temple, which is the same day that Matthew records the 2 donkeys.
Jesus cleansing the temple (Palm Saturday) is recorded in Matthew, Mark, and Luke.
The next day (Sunday) Mark records the drying up of the fig tree cursed on Saturday, plus Saturday also being the day that Jesus cleansed the temple.
In Matthew it records that further on Jesus curses a second fig tree, which dries up immediately.
Matthew also confirms that this was the day after Jesus cleansed the temple.
Palm Friday:
Nisan 9
First, in Mark, Luke, and John, palm Friday Jesus rides into Jerusalem in Judgment, on a young donkey
(1 beast).
Second, this was the day Jesus pronounced Judgment over Jerusalem, found in Luke.
Third, at the end of palm Friday Jesus entered into the temple and looked round about upon all things.
(Mark 11:11)
The next day:
Palm Saturday:
Nisan 10
First, as Jesus leaves Bethany, he curses a fig tree on the way to Jerusalem.
Second, in Matthew, Jesus rides into Jerusalem in Blessing, on both an adult donkey and on a young donkey
(2 beasts).
Third, he enters and cleanses the temple.
(Mark 11:15)
The next day;
Sunday:
Nisan 11
First, as Jesus leaves Bethany for Jerusalem, he and the disciples witness that the fig tree cursed on palm Saturday had dried up.
(Mark 11:20)
Second, further on, as they were entering Jerusalem, Jesus cursed a second fig tree, which dried up immediately.
The account in Matthew with the 2 donkeys occurred on the same day as the cleansing of the temple, palm Saturday, and Sunday the day after was the second fig tree which dried up immediately.
In conclusion, there was not 1 triumphal entry.
Instead there were 2 triumphal entries, and neither one was on a Sunday.
The 2 triumphal entries were on Palm Friday in Judgment; and Palm Saturday in blessing.
Judgment:
In the Old Testament a judge would ride on a donkey.
Blessing:
In the Old Testament 2 beasts of burden represented blessing.
The evidence is overwhelming for Three Days and Three Nights,
a burial from
Nisan 14 Wednesday
just before sundown,
till
Nisan 17 Saturday
just before sundown
exactly 72 hours.
A day can be 12 hours, but when you have 3 days, you can't have nights missing.
A full day has 2 periods of 12 hours each:
John 11:9 KJV -
Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world.
John 11:10 KJV -
But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light in him.
The third day, In three days,
After three days:
All these expressions mean 72 hours.
The word of God always has perfect correlation, and no contradictions.
