'Third' in the Bible

But Jesus called His disciples to Him and said, "My heart yearns over this mass of people, for it is now the third day that they have been with me and they have nothing to eat. I am unwilling to send them away hungry, lest they should faint on the road."

From this time Jesus began to explain to His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem, and suffer much cruelty from the Elders and the High Priests and the Scribes, and be put to death, and on the third day be raised to life again.

they will put Him to death, but on the third day He will be raised to life again." And they were exceedingly distressed.

and hand Him over to the Gentiles to be made sport of and scourged and crucified; and on the third day He will be raised to life."

So also did the second and the third, down to the seventh,

So He left them, and went away once more and prayed a third time, again using the same words.

So give orders for the sepulchre to be securely guarded till the third day, for fear his disciples should come by night and steal the body, and then tell the people that he has come back to life; and so the last imposture will be more serious than the first."
