Tuesday: Jesus Christ ate an evening Passover meal with His disciples (at the beginning of Nisan 14, Jewish reckoning) and instituted the New Covenant symbols (Matthew 26:26-28). Jesus was then betrayed by Judas, arrested and during the night brought before the high priest.

Wednesday: Jesus was crucified and died around 3 p.m. (Matthew 27:46-50). This was the preparation day for the annual, not weekly, Sabbath, which began at sunset (Mark 15:42; Luke 23:54; John 19:31). Jesus' body was placed in the tomb just before sunset (Mat thew 27:57-60).

Thursday: This was the high-day Sabbath, the first day of Unleavened Bread (John 19:31; Leviticus 23:4-7). It is described as the day after the "Day of Preparation" (Matthew 27:62).

Friday: The high-day Sabbath now past, the women bought and prepared spices for anointing Jesus' body before resting on the weekly Sabbath day, which began at sunset (Mark 16:1; Luke 23:56).

Saturday: The women rested on the weekly Sabbath, according to the Fourth Commandment (Luke 23:56; Exodus 20:8- 11). Jesus rose near sunset, exactly three days and three nights after burial, fulfilling the sign of Jonah and authenticating Jesus' messiahship.

Sunday: The women brought the prepared spices early in the morning while it was still dark (Luke 24:1; John 20:1). Jesus had already risen (Matthew 28:1-6; Mark 16:2-6; Luke 24:2-3; John 20:1). He did not rise on Sunday morning, but near sunset the day before.

Yes, I've noticed.



And you have everything exactly right except that Jesus' last meal was NOT a Passover meal. Jesus himself was the Passover Lamb Sacrifice, and you can't have the meal before the sacrifice. Jesus was sacrificed at exactly the appointed time for the Passover Lamb to be sacrificed -- between the two evenings -- between the ninth hour and sunset (Matthew 27:46-50, 57, 59-61, Mark 15:34-37, 42-46, Luke 23:54).



And also, the women came to the tomb very near sunset Saturday, not near sunrise on Sunday morning. Notice that in Matthew 28:1, sunset is referred to as "dawn." And so likewise, Luke 24:1, "at early dawn," does not mean near sunrise, but sunset, the beginning ("dawning") of a new day.
