What happened 3 days after Jesus died?

Answer 1

He rose from the dead

AnswerJohn: "And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost" (xx, 22).

This was on the evening of the resurrection.

AnswerEach of the four Gospel (which in relation to this event truly means 'Good News') accounts presents a different but complementary view of the resurrection. But all agree on the key details, which are that Jesus was certainly dead and was buried and that the tomb was empty on the third day. They also record a range of appearances of Jesus to different persons, at different times and places, which form part of the 'many infallible proofs' mentioned by Luke in Acts 1. Luke also records the conversation with Jesus on the third day to two followers on the road to Emmaus. See below.

We also note in Matthew the necessity of providing an explanation for the empty tomb, which, if either not empty, or, as some claim they got the wrong tomb would have easily have been refuted by producing the body, or if the frightened disciples stole the body, they would have been rounded up and tortured to produce it. The fact that the guard, who neglected their duty, were not immediately executed for so doing, in accord with standard practice of the day speaks eloquently.

Matthew 28:1-15 (King James Version)1In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre. 2And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it.3His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow:4And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead men.5And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified.6He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.7And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you.8And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy; and did run to bring his disciples word.9And as they went to tell his disciples, behold, Jesus met them, saying, All hail. And they came and held him by the feet, and worshipped him.10Then said Jesus unto them, Be not afraid: go tell my brethren that they go into Galilee, and there shall they see me.11Now when they were going, behold, some of the watch came into the city, and shewed unto the chief priests all the things that were done.12And when they were assembled with the elders, and had taken counsel, they gave large money unto the soldiers,13Saying, Say ye, His disciples came by night, and stole him away while we slept.14And if this come to the governor's ears, we will persuade him, and secure you.15So they took the money, and did as they were taught: and this saying is commonly reported among the Jews until this day.

This encounter in Luke which occurred on the evening of the resurrection day demonstrates both the perplexity and the demoralized disappointment of the disciples. Such was not dispelled by the awakening out of a coma of a 'swooned', but still seriously wounded Jesus but only a risen Lord, who came, despite all He had told them, quite contrary to their expectations.

Luke 24:13-35 (King James Version)

13And, behold, two of them went that same day to a village called Emmaus, which was from Jerusalem about threescore furlongs. 14And they talked together of all these things which had happened. 15And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and reasoned, Jesus himself drew near, and went with them. 16But their eyes were Holden that they should not know him. 17And he said unto them, What manner of communications are these that ye have one to another, as ye walk, and are sad? 18And the one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answering said unto him, Art thou only a stranger in Jerusalem, and hast not known the things which are come to pass there in these days? 19And he said unto them, What things? And they said unto him, Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people: 20And how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him to be condemned to death, and have crucified him. 21But 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. 22Yea, and certain women also of our company made us astonished, which were early at the sepulchre; 23And when they found not his body, they came, saying, that they had also seen a vision of angels, which said that he was alive. 24And certain of them which were with us went to the sepulchre, and found it even so as the women had said: but him they saw not. 25Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken: 26Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory? 27And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself. 28And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they went: and he made as though he would have gone further. 29But they constrained him, saying, Abide with us: for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent. And he went in to tarry with them. 30And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and blessed it, and brake, and gave to them. 31And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight. 32And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures? 33And they rose up the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and them that were with them, 34Saying, The Lord is risen indeed, and hath appeared to Simon. 35And they told what things were done in the way, and how he was known of them in breaking of bread.

at church he actually went to hell but people in hell thought he was the son of god so god got to take him to heaven.
