Have you ever thought about the date of
Christ’s death and resurrection?
Here’s an opportunity
to settle this question in your own mind.

For almost 2,000 years after the crucifixion of Messiah, the day on which He died was not disputed, but recently it has been questioned whether the day was really Friday, since Friday could not be reconciled with a period of three days and three nights to Sunday, the day of His resurrection as it had been prophesied.

The desire of Ruth Specter Lascelle is to feature in this volume the accuracy of Scriptures, especially the fulfillment of the types and symbols concerning the last days of Christ on earth.

... Christ died for our sins according to the
scriptures; ... he was buried, and that he rose
again the third day according to the scriptures.–1 Corinthians 15:3-4
