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

For where two or three are assembled in my name, I am there among them.”

and declared, “This man said, ‘I am able to destroy the temple of God and rebuild it in three days.’”

Now from noon until three, darkness came over all the land.

Jesus said to him, “I tell you the truth, on this night, before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times.”

But if he does not listen, take one or two others with you, so that at the testimony of two or three witnesses every matter may be established.

and saying, “You who can destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days, save yourself! If you are God’s Son, come down from the cross!”

and said, “Sir, we remember that while that deceiver was still alive he said, ‘After three days I will rise again.’

Then Peter remembered what Jesus had said: “Before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times.” And he went outside and wept bitterly.

So they went. When he went out again about noon and three o’clock that afternoon, he did the same thing.

So Peter said to Jesus, “Lord, it is good for us to be here. If you want, I will make three shelters – one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.”

At about three o’clock Jesus shouted with a loud voice, “Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?” that is, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”

He told them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like yeast that a woman took and mixed with three measures of flour until all the dough had risen.”

Then Jesus called the disciples and said, “I have compassion on the crowd, because they have already been here with me three days and they have nothing to eat. I don’t want to send them away hungry since they may faint on the way.”

As the night was ending, Jesus came to them walking on the sea.

They will kill him, and on the third day he will be raised.” And they became greatly distressed.
