Since Jesus was in the grave for part of Friday, all of Saturday, and part of Sunday—He could be considered to have been in the grave for three days.
Dahil si Hesus ay nasa libingan na noong hapon ng araw ng Biyernes, buong araw ng Sabado at bahagi ng araw ng lingo, ikinukonsidera na Siya ay nasa libingan sa loob ng tatlong araw.
