THE MESHIACH's CRUCIFIXION & RESURRECTION:

Day time is 12 hours and night time is 12 hours making 24 hours in a whole biblical day.. It takes a day and a night together to make a whole 24 hour day. 

12 hours in a day and 12 hours in a night = 24 hours.... 3 days and 3 nights = 72 hours.... Now try and get 72 hours from Friday evening just before sundown to Sunday sunrise? Hmm something just ain't adding up right? 🤔

Something to keep in mind while trying to figure this out. 👇👇👇

When does a Jewish day begin? 

A Jewish-day calendar does not begin at midnight, but either at sunset or when three medium-sized stars should be visible, depending on the religious circumstances. 

Sunset marks the start of the 12 hours, whereas sunrise marks the start of the 12 hours.

Genesis 1:3-5 

Then God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light.  And God saw the light, that it was good; and God divided the light from the darkness.  God called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night.👉👉 SO THE EVENING (12hrs) AND THE MORNING (12hrs) WERE THE FIRST DAY.👈👈

Now with this understanding of day and night read Matthew 12:40

 Matthew 12:40

For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. 

Jesus confirms 12 hours in a day in John 11:9

John 11:9-10

Jesus answered, 👉👉“ARE THERE NOT TWELVE HOURS IN THE DAY?👈👈 If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world.  But if one walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him.”

Now reread Matthew 12:40

For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth .

Wednesday night, Thursday night, Friday night = 3 nights

Thursday day, Friday day, Saturday day = 3 days 

Making 72 hours total that our Messiah was in the heart of the earth.

Vick Sanquenetti my pleasure friend. There is one more to share...

Chronology of messiah's death

Tuesday: Messiah ate an evening Passover meal with His disciples and instituted the New Covenant symbols (Matthew 26:26-28). Yahshua was then betrayed by Judas, arrested and during the night brought before the high priest.

Wednesday: Messiah died around 3 p.m. (Matthew 27:46-50). This was the preparation day for the annual, not weekly, Sabbath, which began at sunset (Mark 15:42; Luke 23:54; John 19:31). Yahshua body was placed in the tomb at twilight (Matthew 27:57-60).

Thursday: Wednesday sunset to Thursday sunset was the high-day Sabbath, the first day of Unleavened Bread (John 19:31; Leviticus 23:4-7). It is described as the day after the Day of Preparation (Matthew 27:62).

Friday: The high-day Sabbath now past, the women bought and prepared spices for anointing Yahshua's body before resting on the weekly Sabbath day, which began at Friday sunset (Mark 16:1; Luke 23:56).

Saturday: The women rested on the weekly Sabbath, according to the Fourth Commandment (Luke 23:56; Exodus 20:8-11). Yahshua rose near sunset, exactly three days and three nights after burial, fulfilling the sign of Jonah and authenticating the sign He gave of His messiahship.

Sunday: The women brought the spices early in the morning while it was still dark (Luke 24:1; John 20:1), finding that Yahshua had already risen (Matthew 28:1-6; Mark 16:2-6; Luke 24:2-3; John 20:1). He did not rise on Sunday morning, but near sunset the day before.
