If Jesus was not crucified on a Wednesday, He was a false prophet and should have been killed, as the O.T. says that if things do not happen EXACTLY as a prophet says they will, he is a false prophet and should be stoned to death. So here's the prophesy, Just as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
According to scripture the women showed up at the tomb before dawn, while it was still dark. So, Friday means He would have been in the tomb:
1.) One Night: Friday night
2.) One Night and One Day: Add in Saturday day
3.) One Day, One Night, and, at most, "Part" of an additional night: Again, the "while it was still dark part.
Thursday ends up being:
Two Days, Two nights, and, at most part of an additional night.
If it was Thursday or Friday the result is easy: Jesus was a false prophet, deserving of death for his own sins, the N.T. is not reliable and trustworthy as it claims a false prophet was God.
So pick one: The N.T. is all a lie and untrustworthy for anything other than to line the bottom of a birdcage and Jesus was a false prophet deserving of death, and you are still in your sins, or Jesus died on a Wednesday day and was buried at dusk on Wednesday. Interestingly, if Jesus was the Son of God, and not a false prophet, then He rose at dusk on Saturday, which, by the way was early on the first day of the week ... for a Jew.
Hint: Look up the verse that talks about that day being a "High Day" and read the O.T. passages about the "high days" surrounding the feast, and what days of the week that "High Sabbath" could occur?
Low Sabbaths always occur on Friday, by the way, but that wasn't the Sabbath Jesus died on.
