Jesus waited three days to come back to life. It was perfect! If he had only waited one day, a lot of people wouldn't have even heard he died. They'd be all, "Hey Jesus, what up?" and Jesus would probably be like, "What up? I died yesterday! " and they'd be all, "Uh, you look pretty alive to me, dude.." and then Jesus would have to explain how he was resurrected, and how it was a miracle, and the dude'd be like "Uhh okay, whatever you say, bro.." And he's not gonna come back on a Saturday. Everybody's busy, doing chores, workin' the loom, trimmin' the beard, NO. He waited the perfect number of days, three. Plus it's Sunday, so everyone's in church already, and they're all in there like "Oh no, Jesus is dead", and then BAM! He bursts in the back door, runnin' up the aisle, everyone's totally psyched, and FYI, that's when he invented the high five. That's why we wait three days to call a woman, because that's how long Jesus wants us to wait.. True story. Barney Stinson
About This Quote

We have been taught from a very young age that when we call a woman, we must wait three days. This is to show the lady that we are worthy of her and what a great catch we will be if she agrees to meet us. We generally don't think much about it, but in the Bible, there is a verse in the book of Matthew that was written by Christ himself which states "Set an example for others" and this idea of waiting three days is the very example of Jesus waiting for his bride to be reborn back into this world.
