three

Answer

Actually it is less than three numerically speaking. We know from the gospels that Jesus died at around 3pm on the Friday afternoon. However, on the Sunday morning, while it was still dark, the tomb was found empty. We must assume then that it was very early - around 4 - 5 am or so. Therefore, between 3pm on Friday to 5 am on Sunday is just 38 hours, or just over a day and a half.

However, in Jewish culture, even part of a day was classed as a whole day. Therefore, we hear in the gospels that 'on the third day' Jesus rose from death. While numerically speaking it may only be 38 hours, by Jewish reckoning, as the part days are also included, the resurrection took place on the third day.

I have heard another explanation: The High Holy Day, adding a day every so often to the year because of the Hebraic calendar only having 360 days per year, just coincidentally occurred on that very weekend.
