Saturday

Silent Saturday

Usually, the Saturday between Good Friday and Easter is silent on a religious level. After Jesus was crucified and buried in the tomb, the disciples and all who loved Jesus mourned. They wondered, "What now?" They did not know until later that Jesus was more alive than ever. Here is what Peter later wrote about Christ's activities between Friday and Sunday: 
I Peter 3

18 For Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive in the Spirit. 19 After being made alive,[d] he went and made proclamation to the imprisoned spirits— 20 to those who were disobedient long ago when God waited patiently in the days of Noah while the ark was being built.
