“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”
Those are the words of Jesus @Matthew 12: verse 40. And speaking about days and night He means 12 hours for the day and 12 hours for the night.
Hence 3 days and 3 nights by the words of Jesus means that He spent 72 hours in the grave. Jesus died at 3 pm on the day before the high Sabbath, not the Saturday Sabbath of the Jewish religion. So how does Friday night to Saturday night adds up to 72 hours? There is no way!
Unfortunately, many of us who claim to belong to Jesus know very little about Him because we rely on the wisdom of man–not that of His Holy Spirit.
And so, too many souls will leave their body without knowledge of the Man of the Spirit who gives Life to mankind. And yet it is that knowledge which is evidence of Eternal Life in us. Good Lord!
