It’s got to do with the calendar that got set up for us.
Here’s an interesting thread that explains it.
The Good Friday—Easter Sunday Question

Lol, it explains nothing.
Jesus said he would rise on the third day.
The third day in the Bible is defined as the day after tomorrow.
According to Luke 24, the first day of the week ( Sunday ) was the third day since he was crucified.
If Sunday was the third day, Saturday was the second day and wait for it,
Friday had to be the day he died.
What do you know, the orthodox historical Faith is right sgain.
The idiot who wrote this article doesn’t realize if he died on Wednesday, that means he would have risen on Friday.
