By Jewish reckoning, this day begins at sunset on the previous evening. Jesus ate an evening Passover meal with His disciples after sundown (now the start of Nisan 14, which, if Nisan 14 was a Wednesday, would mean Tuesday night in our modern reckoning). That night He was betrayed and arrested in Gethsemane (still Nisan 14, but the early pre-dawn hours) and brought to trial before the Jewish council. In the morning (still Nisan 14, Wednesday daylight), He was handed over to Pilate and the Romans (Mark 15:1). By 9 a.m. that morning, the crucifixion was underway (Mark 15:25) . Jesus hung on the cross until about 3 p.m., at which time He died (Mark 15:34–37). Because the Jews did not want the bodies to remain exposed “on the Sabbath”, which would commence at sunset, they hurried to bury Jesus before nightfall (John 19:31, 19:42). Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus wrapped Jesus’ body and laid it in a new tomb in a garden near Golgotha, finishing just as evening approached (Luke 23:53–54). Sunset on Nisan 14 marked the end of the Preparation Day and the start of Nisan 15. ... See MoreSee Less
A timeline of Jesus’ crucifixion, burial, and resurrection aligned with the biblical days (sunset-to-sunset) of Passover week. Jesus dies on Passover (Nisan 14, Wednesday), rests in the tomb during the Feast of Unleavened Bread high Sabbath (Nisan 15, Thursday) and the weekly Sabbath (Nisan 17, Saturday), and rises at the close of Sabbath—before dawn of the first day of the week (Nisan 18, Sunday), fulfilling “three days and three nights” (Matthew 12:40). The timeline highlights the consecutive nights and days in the tomb (marked as Night 1/Day 1 through Night 3/Day 3), and shows the synchronization with the Spring Feasts (Passover, Unleavened Bread, First Fruits). ...
