The Sign of Jonah: Bible Studies, #19

By Leslie Rendell

The vast majority of Christians will disagree with my thoughts on this topic. But I am convinced that if they do a proper search for the truth in the bible, then they must come to the same conclusion as I have.
God has directed us in the book of Isaiah to seek the truth from his words in the bible. What does he say in Isaiah 28:9-10.
Isa 28:9  Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts. 
Isa 28:10  For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:. 
Verse 9 tells us it is those who are weaned from milk. In other words, those who are prepared to seek knowledge as a mature person who will find it. Those who do not seek the truth this way are like babies who need to learn the fundamentals of God and will not be able to gain the knowledge they need unless they diligently seek the truth.
Verse 10 clearly advises us to search the scriptures for the truth.
As with any part of God's holy bible, if we are honestly seeking the truth on any matter, we must study the bible and find the answers. 
When we follow the activities of the women from the time of Christ's burial until his resurrection, we can clearly see the order of things and calculate the days and the time of the days that Jesus was both crucified and resurrected.
 I hope you will gain this precious knowledge as you read this booklet.

Chapter 2 - Introduction

Thank you for listening to this audio book that was recorded to answer the question about the length of time Jesus was in the tomb. Modern day churches have a different answer to what we can decipher from the bible. Easter is a major celebration in the churches that most Christians keep. The Good Friday, Easter Sunday idea is widely believed and followed. This is in contrast to what the bible reveals to anyone who is willing to learn from God’s written word, and understand what it will reveal to them.

The bible tells us Jesus was in the tomb for three days and three nights. It also records Jesus was to be raised from the dead on the third day. So now we must ask the question, How long is three days and three nights, and exactly what does the term, on the third day mean? These may sound like silly questions, but they need to be answered accurately if we are going to establish how long Jesus Christ was in the tomb.

Then we need to answer the question, does it really matter if he was in the tomb for the amount of time he predicted? The answer to that question is, it makes a massive difference to His claim to
