'Three Days' in the Bible

for as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the whale, so the Son of man will be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.

Then Jesus called his disciples and said, "I am sorry for the crowd; they have been three days with me now, and they have nothing to eat. I will not send them away starving, in case they faint on the road."

and said, "This fellow declared, 'I can destroy the temple of God and build it in three days.'"

and calling, "You were to destroy the temple and build it in three days! Save yourself, if you are God's Son! Come down from the cross!"

and said, "We remember, sir, that when this impostor was alive he said, 'I will rise after three days.'
