He was taken down from the Cross on 14th day of the first month just before dusk, and laid in the tomb before the new day began - God's days run sundown to sundown.. Jesus Himself said He would be in the tomb 3 days AND 3 nights. Matthew 12:40.
Since God determined all of this can I suggest you repent of you arrogant statement 'I don't see any benefit ...'

No defensive nature at all - it is important to point out where people are in serious error - as you were. Others who are not aware of what the Bible actually says may believe you!
God has set it all out for us, we just need to believe Him.
Matthew 12:40 KJV 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 nights in the heart of the earth.
This^^ doesn't say "part" of one day and then "part" of another night. Jesus was crucified and died on either Weds or Thurs, before sunset, depending upon which day you believe His Body was resurrected. When God says it, it is not disputable.
No, He died at 3pm.
