When the scribes and Pharisees asked me to give them a sign, I replied, "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 ((Matthew 12:40)."
I was crucified the ninth hour, which was 3 in the afternoon on the day the lambs were being slain for the Passover celebration.
The days on the Jewish calendar begin at sundown and end at sundown. I rose from the grave three days after My crucifixion which was the day that the "Feast of First Fruits" was celebrated. I tell you these details because I want you know that the resurrection day that you will celebrate this Sunday should be called the celebration of the "Feast of First Fruits." I am the first fruit of the resurrection of all who believe in Me.
LEVITICUS 23:10; 1 CORINTHIANS 15:20
