Three Days Between Good Friday and Easter Sunday?

On what day did Jesus die and rise again?

In the Creed we say that “on the third day [Jesus] rose again,” but if Jesus died on a Friday and rose on a Sunday, isn’t that just two days?

In this video I explain the math behind the Resurrection and why St. Paul and even Jesus himself referenced the three days in the tomb between his death and Resurrection.

If the a day actually begins at sundown rather than midnight, it makes a lot more sense. Good Friday actually starts on Holy Thursday night....
