TEd, does the bible say whether Jesus died in the morning? Maybe that’s why they say it is three days. If he died at night, then I’d definitely say two days later, not three.



According to the Synoptic Gospels (Matthew, Mark, and Luke), Jesus died at around 3 pm. John doesn't give a specific time, but it was before sunset, since they broke the thieves' legs to finish them off before sunset, which was the start of the sabbath. They didn't need to break Jesus' legs because he was already dead.
