Hi, guys —
- Why does our Creed say, "On the third day, He rose again according to the Scriptures," but we celebrate Easter Sunday the second day?

Michael,
Because of the way the ancients reckoned days.
A part of one day was considered a day.
- Friday, the first day
- Saturday, the second day, and
- Sunday, the third day.
