Jesus was crucified on a Friday (the Jewish feast of Passover being celebrated on the preceding night) and his body lay in the tomb until Sunday morning, when the Angel of the Lord descended from Heaven in the sight of the guards, and rolled back the stone from the tomb. God, having submitted himself to a mortal life and death in the body of Jesus Christ, had conquered death. | Jesus was crucified on a Friday (the Jewish feast of Passover being celebrated on the preceding night) and his body lay in the tomb until Sunday morning, when the Angel of the Lord descended from Heaven in the sight of the guards, and rolled back the stone from the tomb.
