1 Cor 15 says He was raised on the 'third day'. Wouldn't you start counting with the day of His death? IOW Friday? Friday was the first day of His death, Sat the second day of His death, and Sun the third day of His death.

I am pretty sure, from my studies of Christ's postressurection appearances on the Lord's day, that the Jewish way of counting would not have included the day of his death as the first day. But I am unsure of that, I think Bruce (Contra_Mundum) told me something about this.
NEVERMIND, I found the post where he told me, and the Jewish way of counting was to include the day. If a Jew said in Three days I will rise that could mean on Friday he would die, however I am still confused on how to fit 3 nights into a friday crucifixion.
