There is not just one single passage that specifically states " and Jesus walked for 40 days" after the resurrection. In John chapter 21, some 3 weeks after his resurrection, Jesus appears to his disciples. There are several other accounts of Jesus' appearance to others (Mark 16:14; Luke 24:36-43; John 20:19-31), on the road to Emmaus (Mark 16:12-14; Luke 24:13-35; 1 Cor. 15:5), the great commission (Mark 16:15-18; Matt. 28:16-20; 1 Cor. 15:6-7), promise of the Holy Ghost (Luke 24:44-49; Acts 1:4-8) and his last appearance and ascension (Mark 16:19-20; Luke 24:50-53; Acts 1:9-12)
40 days (in The Bible) is used as a round number to indicate completion or fullness. Other examples of its use...

Moses fled at age 40, was in Midian for 40 years, and was on Mount Sinai for 40 days
Israel wandered in the wilderness for 40 years
the spies spent 40 days in Canaan
Elijah fasted 40 days
Nineveh was given 40 days respite
Jesus fasted 40 days and was on earth 40 days after the resurrection
40 is special in the bible as there was a flood for 40 days, Jesus fasted for 40 days and 40 nights. After Jesus arose from the grave he stayed for 40 days on earth.
There are several events that are mentioned in the Bible that lasted for 3 days. For example, Jesus died on the cross and rose from the dead 3 days later.
Matthew chapter 2 verse 1 states: "Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king..." in the King James Version of the Bible.

Technically, there is no discussion of Easter found in the Bible. It is a man-made holiday that is supposed to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Typically, Easter celebrations are about the earthly resurrection of Jesus Christ after his execution. Other celebrations leading up to this may include references to the last days of Jesus Christ. The last days of Jesus are recorded in the gospel accounts Matthew 26-28, Mark 14-16, Luke 22-24 & John 18-21. See attached links for more information.

Well, according to the Bible, God (the Father) made creation in 7 days. Jesus rose from the dead in 3 days...
There isn't one. The Bible is very specific that it was Jesus who was Crucified, Died, and Buried in the Tomb for 3 full days and nights. Then it was Jesus who was Resurrected and after 40 days, ascended to His Father and our Father.
In those days all did not go to school. Jesus has no education mentioned in the bible.

According to The Bible Jesus went into the wilderness and fasted for forty days and forty nights.
The bible clearly states that Jesus was tempted by the devil in the wilderness.
No the bible does not say so.
Depends if you believe the Bible or not. According to the Bible, Jesus is created the universe in 7 days. If that's true I think he's stronger than Chuck Norris...
No, but the number 3 is very common in the Bible such as Peter denying Jesus 3 times, Jesus rose from the dead 3 days later, etc.
In the Bible it says; He was reserected and came back to life after 3 days.
