Jesus died Friday,why didn't he raise himself up the next day Saturday?

Answer 1

Because it took Jesus Disciples until Sunday for the PAOTEE to take full effect.

Answer 2

In Latin culture, which was the predominant culture of the Western and Eastern Churches under Roman rule till the split between Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox, the first day of the week is Monday and the last day of the week in Sunday. In France, they still have this tradition. Thus the Christian interpretation of Sabbath as a day of rest for the mass of Christ is Sunday and for the Jewish faith, it is sundown to sundown Friday to Saturday and for Muslims, the holy day is Friday.

Answer 3

Because Jesus didnt lie Then the Jews demanded of Him, "What miraculous sign can you show us to prove Your authority to do all this?" Jesus answered them, "Destroy this Temple, and I will raise it again in three days." The Jews replied, "It has taken forty-six years to build this Temple, and You are going to raise it in three days?" But the Temple He had spoken of was His body." (John 2:18-21 NIV)
Food for thought, if Jesus rose the next day people might have doubted that he was dead although the roman solider that periced his side has pretty sure.
Note the concern about how Lazareth
John 11:39. Jesus saith: Take away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith to him: Lord, by this time he stinketh, for he is now of four days.

Hope that helps

Answer 4

Cause he went to minster and release the souls in hades.

Ps... 3 is a symbol of the holy trinity. Jesus ressurected on the third day.

ciao!

Answer 5

It was supposed to fulfill some prophecy about rising after three days. Too bad the dopes didn't do the math right. Sunday is only two days.

Answer 6

Well, that was the Sabbath. Perhaps He wanted to wait till that ended before He rose. After all, Sabbath is a day of rest.

Answer 7

Who says he died Friday; he died Wednesday according to Daniel 9:27.

**JESUS DIED WEDNESDAY APRIL 14, 31AD at 3pm.

A good foundation (1Tim.6:19) has solid ground evidence. The foundation should include 2Tim.3:16; Isaiah 28:9-10; 2Peter 1:19-21; 1Thess.5:20-21 & Ephes.5:9-10,13. To understand deeply--you must use these websites:

http://lcg.org/search/search.php?query=sunday&%24results_per_page=10&search=1

If you read Daniel 9:27; it says "he died in the middle of the week"; that would be Wednesday. This is followed by "3 days & 3 nights" = Matthew 12:40 which equals 1-24hr.day x 3days equals 72hrs. in grave. Next the Bible tells us it would be "after 3days and "not before = Matt.27:63-64 and Mark 8:31. It tells us in three days (John 2:19-21) and not after. The Bible also reminds us a day is 12hrs. not including the night(John 11:9-10). Remember also Gen.1:5 and Lev.23:32 tells us "evening to evening" is considered to be a day.

Now I know this is true because the MAJORITY(Matt.7:13) is always wrong. Also there's many clues that it wasn't a Friday crucifixion and a Sunday resurrection; look at 2Tim.2:18. But you will point out Mark 16:9 which says "Now when Jesus was risen[the perfect tense is correct here--he was already risen] early the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene." Now the original Greek didn't have no punctuation. If the King James translators put a comma after the word "risen" and not after "week", this would make complete sense. The Centenary Translation renders it this way: "Now after his resurrection, early on the first day of the week he appeared first to Mary Magdalene

Answer 8

Thursday...because he had to be as Jonas was...haven't you read?

Matthew 12:40 For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.

Answer 9

To fulfill the prophecy that he would rise on the third day.
(Hos 6:2)

Answer 10

That wasn't the plan. Why does everyone question God's motives and reasons for doing things. He is not accountable to us.
