Another argument for Friday says that verses such as Matthew 16:21 and Luke 9:22 teach that Jesus would rise on the third day; therefore, He would not need to be in the grave a full three days and nights.
Funzo lingine kuhusu siku ya Ijumaa lasema kifungo kama Mathayo Mtakatifu 16:21 na Luka Mtakatifu 9:22, za funza kwamba Yesu angefufuka siku ya tatu; kwa hivyo, hangehitaji kuwa kaburini siku tatu mchana na usiku. Tafusiri zingine zinapotafusiri “katika siku ya tatu” kwa hizi aya, si zote, na si kila mmoja anakubaliana kwamba “siku ya tatu” ndio njia nzuri ya kutafusiri aya hizi.
