To fulfill prophecy:
"For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth." (Matthew 12: 40).
Also, Christ died on Friday, and rested on the Sabbath day (we call the seventh day, Sabbath, Saturday) in observance of the fourth commandment, found in Exodus 20:8-10. Thus, He had to wait until at least Saturday night (Sabbath lasts from sundown Friday to sundown Saturday, according to the Genesis account) before He could rise, if He was to observe Sabbath.
