is everything we make, human?
He has created all things, yet calls the things which are seen, temporary, and says that His eternal qualities are seen by those temporal things.
He died on the 4th day, not the 6th.
He then rose after 3 days and 3 nights ((in the same year lol)) on the 8th day, the 1st day of the week that followed. Firstfruits, always an 8th day, newness of life. after rest, stillness and quietness.
the 4th day is the day He set the stars in the sky...

eostar, eostare, astarte, eoshar, ashereh, ishtar.

... and zero etymologic link to Pascha, which is the actual word in actual scripture.
He went to the cross on Pascha, on a wednesday, that we call good friday now.
