I am in no way tempted to go outside of Scripture to say that Jesus resurrected on Sunday (When the Word does not say such a thing). Man made traditions say that Jesus rose on Sunday. It is nothing more than that. Jesus clearly rose on the Saturday Sabbath for several reasons. I also believe folks got the day wrong for when Jesus rode in on a donkey, too. It is Palm Saturday and not Palm Sunday. Jesus was traveling to the temple on the Saturday Sabbath. For it is allowed to travel to the temple on a Saturday Sabbath.
...
It is allowed to travel to the temple on a Sabbath; it was mandatory "in the year of our captivity in the beginning of the year (in the First Month) in the tenth day of the month ... in the selfsame BONE-Day (the tenth day of the month)", that "the hand of the LORD was upon Me and brought Me thither...upon a mountain... and there was man... with a line-o-flax in his hand and a measuring reed; and he stood in the gate...".
The Lamb for the Passover of Yahweh was to be proved perfect, without blemish to the full stature of the Anointed One of God. Not according to the Law of Sabbaths, but according to the Law of BONE-Days so called in the Law of the passover "on the tenth day of the month in the beginning of the year" regardless days of the week NEVERTHELESS so that one Sabbath's week after, He on the Sabbath "on the sixteenth day of the First Month, finished to cleanse the Sanctuary" by having raised from it out of the realm of the dead and grave.

Friday The Feast
After this because it was the Preparation, Joseph of Arimathea, secretly for fear of the Jews, went[1]
in[2] boldly unto Pilate[3], (and) besought (him) that he might take away the body of Jesus.[4] And Pilate gave him leave. He came therefore and took down[5] the body of Jesus (and) away[6]. Having bought linen[7], Joseph wrapped[8] the body. There came also Nicodemus who the first time came to Jesus by night, and brought a mixture of myrrh about an hundred pound. Then prepared[9] they the body of Jesus, and wound it in linen with the spices as the manner of the Jews is to bury.[10]

Daylight Procession
The women also, who came with Him from Galilee (Mary Magdalene and the other Mary), followed the procession.[1]
There was a garden in the place where He was crucified, and in the garden a new sepulchre, hewn out of rock[2], wherein was never man yet laid.[3] There laid they[4] Jesus because of the Jews’ preparations.[5]
Mary Magdalene and the other Mary sitting over against the sepulchre[6] beheld where[7] (and) how his body was laid.[8]
(Joseph) rolled a great[9] stone unto the door of the sepulchre[10], and departed.[11]
(The women) returned home also, and prepared spices and ointments.[12]
The day was The Preparation, afternoon while the Sabbath drew on.[13]

Saturday (Abib 16)
“First Sheaf Wave Offering Before the LORD; on the day after the sabbath (of the Passover, Abib 15).”[1]
The women began[2] to rest the Sabbath Day according to the (Fourth) Commandment.[3]
The morning sunrise, all their precautions despite, the chief priests and Pharisees had a meeting with Pilate, and protested, But Sir, we remember this deceiver said while he was yet alive, After[4] three days I will rise again! Command therefore that the sepulchre be made sure until the third day has passed; lest his disciples come by night and steal him away, and say, he is risen.[5] So they secured the tomb by sealing the stone and setting a watch.[6]

[6] Mt27:66
In the slow hours[1] of the Sabbath’s[2] after noon[3], towards the First Day of the week – explained the angel[4]:– When suddenly there was a great earthquake, (and) Mary Magdalene and the other Mary set out[5] to go[6] have a look at the grave[7],
Behold! For the angel of the Lord descended from heaven and came and hurled back the stone from the door, and sat on it. His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow. And for fear of him the keepers did shake and became as dead.[8]

Sunday (Abib 17)
And when the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James, and Salome,
bought sweet spices that when[1] they come, they might anoint Him.[2]
Early darkness still the First Day of the week, Mary Magdalene comes[3] to the sepulchre and sees the stone taken away from it! Then she runs and comes to Peter.[4]
On the First Day of the week, deep dark morning[5], they[6] and certain other with them, went[7] to the grave bringing their spices which they had prepared. And they found[8] the stone rolled away from the grave.[9]
[1] They did not then, immediately, go to the tomb, but first waited.

[9] Lk24:1 further
Very early
before sunrise on the First Day of the week, they[1], came[2] to the tomb. Talking among themselves, they wondered: Who could have rolled the stone away for us (for it was exceedingly big!)?[3] So on re-investigation[4] they found that the stone was thrown back uphill![5] ... They
fled from the sepulchre, for they trembled and were amazed. They
told nobody anything, because they were
afraid.[6] ... But
Mary had had stood after[7] in front of the tomb. Weeping, she bent over and looked inside the sepulchre. ... She turned herself around, and saw Jesus ... supposing Him to be the gardener ...[8]
Risen (Jesus), early daylight on the First Day of the week,
first appeared to Mary Magdalene.
