Mark 8:31 states--'Also, he started teaching them that the Son of man must undergo many sufferings and be rejected by the older men and the chief priests and the scribes and be killed, and rise three days later'. The Hebrews began their day in the evening, after sunset, and ended it the next day at sunset. The day, therefore, ran from evening to evening. "From evening to evening you should observe your sabbath." (Le 23:32) So, therefore:

  • Luke 23:44-46 says that Jesus died at the "ninth hour," that is, about 3 p.m. on Nisan 14th, which began after sundown of Nisan 13th. However, he died at 3 p.m. on the afternoon of Friday, Nisan 14th, which didn't end until sundown. This was the 1st day he was in the grave.
  • Saturday, Nisan 15 began after sundown of the 14th. This was the second day he was in the grave.
  • After sundown began Sunday, Nisan 16th, the third day he was in the grave. The next morning, which was still Nisan 16th, he had been resurrected.
  • Friday till sundown (1st day), Saturday till sundown (2nd day), Sunday (third day). The Bible does not say he was in the grave for 'three whole days', but that he would rise 'three days later'.

Another Answer:

The Quran says in Surah Annisa 4:157

That they said (in boast), "We killed Christ Jesus the son of Mary, the Messenger of Allah.";- But they killed him not, nor crucified him, but so it was made to appear to them, and those who differ therein are full of doubts, with no (certain) knowledge, but only conjecture to follow, for of a surety they killed him not:-

The wonder of Jonah pbuh:

- When he was thrown overboard, was he alive or dead?

- When the fish ate him, was he (in the fish) during those 3 days and 3 nights alive or dead?

- When the fish spew him on the beach, was he alive or dead?

answer: It was a miracle, he should be dead, but he was alive in all the 3 cases.

But when we ask a Christian, was Jesus pbuh alive or dead during those 3 days and 3 nights? The answer is then: Dead

The wonder of Jonah pbuh was, that he was eaten by a fish and survived, the wonder of Jesus pbuh was that he was buried in the earth, so this is not the same as the belly of fish (the conditions are different), but oké. Jesus pbuh did not survive the grave, because he was already dead.

So coming back to live is not the same as being all the time alive.

The third thing i want to discuss: How long did Jesus pbuh stayed in the state of "dead"(in the tomb)?

Mark 15:34 and Mathew 27:46 say both that he pbuh died on: 9 o'clock in the evening on a Friday.

Mark 16:2 and Mathew 28:1 say both that He pbuhrised back to live before (the sun came up) Sunday-morning (after the sabbath).

So let's count : Friday night , Saturday night = 2 nights

Saturday = 1 day.

1 day and 2 nights dead..... this is not the same as 3 days and 3 nights or 3 days (even if it were only "days".).

so, you answer yourselve where he was during those "3 days and 3 nights".

Where does the prophet Jonah mention Jesus?

Jonah never mentioned Jesus, because he wrote long before the time of Jesus.However, the other way around, the author of Matthew, who frequently found useful references in the Old Testament, has Jesus say (Matthew 13:39-41) that just as Jonah spent three days and three nights in the whale's belly, so shall the Son of man spend three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.Of course, Matthew's analogy is not very convincing because the Gospel goes on to tell us that Jesus was buried on the evening of Good Friday and had risen by Sunday morning - a total of only 1 full day and two nights. However, this was the best comparison that Matthew could do.
