The man died, and was buried(?--- we aren't sure), along with hundreds of thousands of men who were hung on crosses or trees both before him for hundreds of years and after him for hundreds of years.... crucifixion is a really tortuous way to die, and to watch someone die that way is horrifying.... it was used as a warning to all who would give Rome a bad time... In all likely hood, the hyenas ate him, just as they did others. Likely he was hung outside the wall that all cities had and where all the garbage was dumped.... a common practice then in the Middle East. Even today, hyenas eat about everything outside of village walls. They existed in the Middle East, as did lions 2000 years ago.

Jesus was not an actual divine person, and there was no resurrection. There were many people claming to be the redeemer at the time and Jesus was a common name. Many gospels where then bandied about for many years; some say as many as 70 different versions, until four got written down. The Bible is a book of myth, legend, and some historical background facts that found themselves placed under one cover, but it is in no way inspired, nor was there ever a resurrection.
Ask yourself this question: What would the pain and suffering of one man have to do with making everyone else’s sins be forgiven? Pain is not a price for doing wrong. Nobody can pay a “pain-price” that makes something that is wrong to be ok, or forgivable. Suffering for one’s wrongs is meant to make the sufferer stop the bad behavior; suffering does not in any way make the wrongs he committed more forgivable, and even less can it make someone else’s wrongs more forgivable. Sorry, but what you believe in is pure myth.

Forty days.
And during this time he ate and drank with his disciples.
(Luke 24:36-43) While they were speaking of these things he himself stood in their midst [[and said to them: “May YOU have peace.”]] 37Â But because they were terrified, and had become frightened, they were imagining they beheld a spirit. 38Â So he said to them: “Why are YOU troubled, and why is it doubts come up in YOUR hearts? 39Â See my hands and my feet, that it is I myself; feel me and see, because a spirit does not have flesh and bones just as YOU behold that I have.” 40Â [[And as he said this he showed them his hands and his feet.]] 41Â But while they were still not believing for sheer joy and were wondering, he said to them: “Do YOU have something there to eat?” 42Â And they handed him a piece of broiled fish; 43Â and he took it and ate it before their eyes.

That's a far-fetched story out of a flawed man-made book. There is no proof of that tall tale.

About a day & 1/2
Just long enough to appear to his apostles in two locations.
