As for Jesus rising on the Sabbath, please consider the following scriptures from Luke 24:
1 On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, the women took the spices they had prepared and went to the tomb. 2 They found the stone rolled away from the tomb, 3 but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. 4 While they were wondering about this, suddenly two men in clothes that gleamed like lightning stood beside them. 5 In their fright the women bowed down with their faces to the ground, but the men said to them, “Why do you look for the living among the dead?
We see from verse 1 that the day is the first day of the week, which is Sunday, do you agree? Now read farther to verse 19-21:
“About Jesus of Nazareth,” they replied. “He was a prophet, powerful in word and deed before God and all the people. 20 The chief priests and our rulers handed him over to be sentenced to death, and they crucified him; 21 but we had hoped that he was the one who was going to redeem Israel. And what is more, it is the third day since all this took place.
Did you see that in verse 21 what they said about that day being the “third day” since all took place? That third day is Sunday, the first day of the week. Therefore, do you think that shows us that Jesus did not rise on the Sabbath, but on Sunday?Did not Jesus say he would raise in three days?

You better explain ‘wherefore’; because I do not see any “therefore”, “in verse 21” as a matter of fact.

I would like to ask you, Moriah, in return, You show me the BURIAL of Jesus in verse 21?
