Well Christ was to be in the tomb 3 days and 3 nights. So by 'sunrise' on the first day of the week, He was no longer in the tomb. Count back 3 days and 3 nights. The new day began at sunset. There is NO way that a Friday Crucifixion will add up to 3 days and 3 nights.

Well Christ was to be in the tomb 3 days and 3 nights.That's not what Scripture says... He told us He would rise on the third day. Days in Judaism are measured from sundown to sundown. Therefore, the first day was the day of His death (Friday). They had to bury Him quickly because the Sabbath was coming at sundown (Saturday)... the second day. On the third day (Sunday), Christ rose with the dawn.
This really doesn't take all of the mental gyrations. Sheesh... people say Catholics make it complicated...
