After three days - the spirit departs- meaning they are fully dead, and resurrection is not possible. Thus Lazarus and Jesus death was that much more a miracle. No Jewish person could say they were just in a coma. | |

Your scenario - buying spices after the weekly sabbath - is impossible. The only light besides the moon and stars in the 1st century was candles/oil lamps. Plus, it was not safe for merchants to travel with money and goods after dark, - to set up the market on Saturday night. [There was no Food Lion ] The High Sabbath was Feast of Unleavened bread, and went Sundown Wed to Sunset Thurs. They bought spices after the sabbath - Unleavened bread, - on Frid, then rested on the Weekly Sabbath. | |
