Holy Saturday is a relatively quiet day.
The next day, the one after Preparation Day, the chief priests and the Pharisees went to Pilate. “Sir,” they said, “we remember that while he was still alive that deceiver said, ‘After three days I will rise again.’ So give the order for the tomb to be made secure until the third day. Otherwise, his disciples may come and steal the body and tell the people that he has been raised from the dead. This last deception will be worse than the first.”
“Take a guard,” Pilate answered. “Go, make the tomb as secure as you know how.” So they went and made the tomb secure by putting a seal on the stone and posting the guard.
Point 1: I am not really sure how someone can read this (especially with the extra-Biblical evidence) and not see some real irony here in the conspiracy theories. Even on Saturday his body was still there. If I were a Roman soldier and I were given a task and the guy wasn’t there… I would be screaming bloody murder! But the record shows that no stink is raised. The guards went. And from that point they were standing guard. We are talking trained killers. World conquerors at the foot of the tomb. Think about that.
Point 2: (Landon’s ratting out the Jews!!!) This always cracks me up. These Pharisees, these people of God, these law-keepers to the extreme… are they doing work on the Sabbath by concerning themselves with all this and striking deals with the Roman government???? (Please read all the sarcasm you want into that last comment… I meant it.)
