For just as Jonah was in the belly of the huge fish ¹  for three days and three nights, ²  so the Son of Man will be in the heart of the earth for three days and three nights.

and declared, “This man ¹  said, ‘I am able to destroy the temple of God and rebuild it in three days.’”

and saying, “You who can destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days, save yourself! ¹  If you are God’s Son, come down ²  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 Jesus called the ¹  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.”

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