'Three Days' in the Bible

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

Jesus summoned his disciples and said, "I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days and have nothing to eat. I don't want to send them away fasting, or they might faint on the way."

and said, "This man said, 'I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days.'"

and saying, "You who destroy the temple, and build it in three days, save yourself! If you are the Son of God, come down from the cross!"

saying, "Sir, we remember what that deceiver said while he was still alive: 'After three days I will rise again.'
