No resurrection actually took place the bible says after Jesus resurecion so were the saints resurected at Jesus death then waited 3 days to enter the city that does not make sense

Being awakened from death is a resurrection. There was a resurrection to physical life here, but it is not the resurrection to immortality.
 
Joh 11:23 Jesus saith unto her, Thy brother shall rise again.
Joh 11:24 Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day.
Joh 11:25 Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:

Here the resurrection Jesus is referring to is the resurrection of Lazarus. the context is resurrecting Lazarus from the dead...

Joh 11:39 Jesus said, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith unto him, Lord, by this time he stinketh: for he hath been dead four days.
Joh 11:40 Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?
Joh 11:41 Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me.
Joh 11:42 And I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the people which stand by I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me.
Joh 11:43 And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth.
Joh 11:44 And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them, Loose him, and let him go.
 
Those events were simultaneous with the death of Jesus Christ and the events that happened immediately after His death. That is indicated by the very first words: “And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose, and came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, andappeared unto many.” God tells all these things that happened, clustered together, around the cross the very moment that His Son had cried out with a loud voice, “It is finished,” and gave up the ghost. The veil of the temple was torn in half, the rocks were rent and the earth shook, and these things also happened.
 
And came out of the graves after his resurrection.” The reading here, as we have it in is that the bodies arose but stayed somehow in the tomb for three days, until the resurrection of Christ . Most likely that is not so. remeber the soilders saw everything also

the only possible solution was tha this was a vision of the futuer resurrection to come .

At the moment of His death, after the veil of the temple had been torn in twain and after the rocks had been rent and the earth quaked, the graves of many saints were opened. They arose bodily and they came out and waited in a grave yard until JESUS WAS RESURECTED . And, only upon the day of His resurrection, they went into Jerusalem and appeared unto many

Does that make sense no it does not because the soilders saw evrything from the resurection to the entering of the saints into the city
