Jesus said that He would "be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth " (Matthew 12:40). Yet, in Matthew 16:21 and Luke 9:22, He also said that He would “be raised the third day”. Also, the two disciples on the road to Emmaus said to the resurrected Jesus, “today is the third day since these things happened.” (Luke 24:21). Paul also wrote, "He rose again the third day” (1 Corinthians 15:4). So, did Jesus rise after three days and three nights, or did He rise on the third day itself? Did Jesus contradict Himself?
