Did the historian Josephus talk about the day Jesus rose from the dead?

Josephus says this about Jesus; "Now there was about this time Jesus, a wise man, if it be lawful to call him a man; for he was a doer of wonderful works, a teacher of such men as receive the truth with pleasure. He drew over to him both many of the Jews and many of the Gentiles. He was [the] Christ. And when Pilate, at the suggestion of the principal men among us , had condemned him to the cross, those that loved him at the first did not forsake him; for he appeared to them alive again the third day, as the divine prophets had foretold these and ten thousand other wonderful things concerning him. And the tribe of Christians, so named from him, are not extinct at this day" (Jewish Antiquities Book 18, Chapter 3.3).

Will Easter fall on April 26?

No, it will not.

You may have noticed that I didn't bother to ask whether you meant this year or not, or indeed what year you have in mind.

The earliest date on which Easter can possibly occur is May 22; the latest date on which it can occur is April 25. So April 26 is just not possible.

Note that some religious sects ... the Eastern Orthodox Church being one of the largest ... have different rules, and using those, Easter CAN occur on or even after April 26 ... Orthodox Easter 2018 falls on April 28. (There are two separate reasons for this; one of them is that the Orthodox Church still uses the Julian calendar, which is 13 days behind the Gregorian calendar used by pretty much everyone else in the world, and the other is that the Orthodox Church absolutely requires that Easter fall AFTER Passover to maintain the sequence described in the gospels ... the Last Supper was actually a Passover Seder ... while most denominations ignore this).

(Also, note that Orthodox Easter and Catholic/Protestant Easter CAN fall on the same date, it's just not terribly common for them to do so. They will be on the same date in 2017. This only happens when the first full moon after the spring Equinox is unusually late.)
