Jesus was dead for three days, as follows. Jesus died on the cross on Good Friday (day 1), He was dead in the tomb on Saturday (day 2) and Sunday (day 3). He arose from the grave on Sunday (day 3). Christians refer to the day of Jesus' death as Good Friday and the day of His resurrection as Easter. The day of Christ's death is referred to as Good Friday because through the pain, and Horror of His sacrificial death on the cross came our salvation.

Where did the term good Friday come from?

Good Friday is a Christian commemoration that has its origin over 2000 years ago, when Jesus Christ was crucified. It is closely tied to Easter and the Passover, when Christians celebrate the risen Christ's sacrifice for us. It began with Jesus Christ being wrongfully condemned by the Sanhedrin (Jewish Court) and then by Romans (Pilat). Easter is a celebration of Life for us. It is called Good Friday because without his sacrifice, there would be no joy of our Salvation. Look at it this way, sacrifices in the Old Testament were times of Joy! Lots of Barbeque, lots of celebrating with families. Why should it be any different when Christ and God made this sacrifice for us? For many, not all, it is the ultimate time to commemorate God's preordained Plan! Isn't that what He wants for us?
