SCRIPTURE

"and that he was buried; and that he hath been raised on the third day according to the scriptures;" — 1 Corinthians 15:4 (ASV)

And that he was buried. That is, evidently, according to the Scriptures. See Isaiah 53:9.

And that he rose again the third day, etc. That is, that he should rise from the dead was foretold in the Scriptures. It is not of necessity implied that it was predicted that he should rise on the third day, but that he should rise from the dead. See the argument for this stated in the discourse of Peter, in Acts 2:24-32. The particular passage which is there urged in proof of his resurrection is derived from Psalm 16:10.
