We will disagree, The Lord rose on the Sabbath, prior to the Jewish dawning day that takes place in the evening
As the sun is going "Down" its dawning towards the new day, perpetual from creation, the evening starts and ends the day, darkness or night was before the day or light.
The Sabbath endear the going down of the Sun, not its rising as you suggest
Genesis 1:1-5KJV
1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.
5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.
Matthew 28:1KJV
1 In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.

LOL, you can't use genesis to interpret the context of what happened when Jesu rose from the dead. it allegorizing the word of God to make it say what it doesn't say contextually about the resurrection of Christ.
Gen 1:1 has nothing to do with what the Bible says in
- (Mk. 16:1-2).
2. (Lk. 24:1).
But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they came unto the tomb, bringing the spices which they had prepared
3 (Jn. 20.1).
. Now on the first day of the week Mary Magdalene came to the tomb early, while it was still dark, and saw that the stone had been taken away from the tomb
That is not enough let's look at the Church after Jesus ascended.
Historical Testimony
It is the universal testimony of both Scripture and church history that the early Christians regarded Sunday as Christ’s resurrection day.
- The disciples met together on resurrection Sunday (Jn. 20:19), then on Sunday a week later (20:26).
- The church was established on Pentecost, which always came on Sunday (Lev. 23:15-16; Acts 2:1).
- The early Christians, under the leadership of inspired men, worshiped on Sunday (Acts 20:7; 1 Cor. 16:2).
- That day was later designated as “the Lord’s day” (Rev. 1:10).
There is far too much proof Biblically we don't have to create an unfounded biblical interpretation of what is given in the New Testament with Gen 1:1-5.
