The Truth About Jesus' Resurrection: Breaking the Traditional Picture of Easter

TLDRJesus' resurrection challenges the traditional Easter narrative. Religious leaders, not Romans, hated Jesus. Jesus fulfilled over 300 prophecies, including rising from the dead. But there's one prophecy that seems to present a problem—Jesus being in the heart of the earth for three days and three nights. However, by considering the Jewish Passover timing and the Sabbath, we can reconcile the discrepancy. Jesus died on Thursday, not Friday, to fulfill the prophecy and be the perfect Passover Lamb.
