    The calendar on my wall refers to the 1st day of the week as "Sunday".

    Common Figure of Speech?

    If you believe that the crucifixion took place on the 6th day of the week with the resurrection taking place on the 1st day of the week, and think that the "heart of the earth" is referring to the tomb, and account for the lack of a 3rd night by saying that the Messiah was employing common...
