Another passage you ought to consider is the following: For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; SO SHALL THE SON OF MAN BE THREE DAYS AND THREE NIGHT IN THE HEART OF THE EARTH. (Matthew 12:40 KJV) So why would you think that Jesus led paradise to heaven "that day"? Peace be with you.
