1st Month / 26th Day - 1st from Sabbath (sunday) : The Resurrection (teqomè)

• 3 days & 3 nights in Sheol

Matthew 12:40 For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of a huge fish, so the Son of Man will be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.

• The resurrection on FirstFruits

1 Corinthians 15:20-23 But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. (…) But each in turn: Christ, the firstfruits; then, when he comes, those who belong to him.

• The resurrection

Matthew 28:1 But, late in the Sabbath, it dawning into the one (day) from the Sabbath (Sunday), Mariam of Magdalene and the other Mariam came to look upon the grave.

Mark 16:1-2 And the Sabbath continuing through, Mariam Magdalene and Mariam the mother of Jacob and Salome, bought spices, so that coming they might anoint Him. And very early, on one from the Sabbath (Sunday), they came to the cemetery as the sun was rising.

Luke 24:1 And on one from the Sabbath (Sunday) at early dawn, they came on the tomb, carrying spices which they prepared; and some were with them.

Mark 16:9 And having first risen early, on the one from the Sabbath (Sunday), He appeared to Mariam Magdalene, from whom He had cast out seven demons.

(Psalm 119:147 I rise before daybreak and cry out; I put my hope in your word.)

The expression “mia sabbaton”, or “one (from) Sabbath” have spurred debates on which day Messiah resurrected: the Sabbath, or Sunday.

The matter is settled by the Qumran texts where use of that same expression is a greater context, confirming that “one of the Sabbath” means ” the 1st day from the Sabbath” (Sunday).
