On The Third Day (Parashat Yitro) | Rabbi David Wein

The Lord is on a mission to answer all our questions, to rescue us, and to wipe every tear from our eyes.  God is the one who writes the end of our stories, and the end of our stories is not death, but Resurrection. Now that is good news. The question is: what day are we on? There were three days between the death of Yeshua and the raising to life of Yeshua.  Sometimes we are in that in-between part. Not only that, but sometimes we are on the third day, and we may not even know it.  The rabbis saw all of the "Third Days" in the Scripture, from Hosea, to Jonah, to Esther, to Moses.  And they saw resurrection life in the Hebrew Bible.  Yeshua is the fullness of all the third days in the Hebrew Bible; That's how we know that "weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning."
