Why did Jesus change the sabbath day from 1st to 2nd?

He didn't. Firstly, you've got the numbers wrong: the Jews celebrate the Sabbath day on the seventh day of the week, which is Saturday. Christians instead meet on Sunday, which is the first day of the week. Jesus didn't change the "Sabbath", his followers did... and not immediately; the ones among them who had been Jews kept observing the Sabbath, but they also met on "the Lord's day", Sunday, because that was the day on which Jesus rose from the dead. It wasn't until there were a substantial number of non-Jewish Christians (who had no tradition of observing the Sabbath at all) that Sunday became predominant.


What day was Jesus' resurrection?

Holy Saturday is the ultimate Sabbath day as it is said Jesus 'rested' in his tomb on this day. If he died on the cross on Good Friday and 'some of the friends of Jesus and his mother had to wait for permission from Pontius Pilate to take his body down', it is likely that he was placed in the tomb late on Good Friday or in the early morning of Holy saturday.


Did Jesus stay 72 hours in the tomb?

No. Jewish reckoning of time was inclusive - Friday (the day he died) was the first day, Saturday was the second, and Sunday ( the day he rose) was the third. He was in the tomb from before sunset on the Friday through until the early hours of Sunday morning. You may remember the When Jesus was speaking to his enemies he said to them ( And I paraphrase here) Even though you will destroy this temple, meaning his body, yet would he build it again in three days.
