Shlama,
here's the chronology i once worked up. it fit to the best of my knowledge.
it also seems to show that He was resurrected the THIRD DAY, which means while it was still the Sabbath, before "sunday."
the week of the crucifixion, using modern names for convenience sake:
SUNDAY / Yeshu?a enters Yerushalayeem. Mark 11:1-11, spends the night, 11:11
MONDAY / Curses the tree & cleanses the Temple, spends the night Mark 11:12-19
TUESDAY / Tree is withered, is examined before priests, elders, and scribes, teaches parables, prophesies about end, Mark 11:20 - 13:37. Also, Mark 14:1 tells us that Passover and Unleavened Bread were in the NEXT TWO DAYS. The Peshitta makes this clear with BATHAR DEYN TAREYN YOWMEEYN, meaning "yet in the next two days," whereas the Greek could possibly be taken as "AFTER two days."
WEDNESDAY / perfumed according to prophecy, betrayed according to prophecy, performs Passover / His death in the afternoon, in tomb BEFORE sunset. FIRST NIGHT begins
THURSDAY / First day of Unleavened Bread, FIRST DAY in tomb, enters SECOND NIGHT in tomb
FRIDAY / SECOND DAY in tomb, enters THIRD NIGHT in tomb
SATURDAY / THIRD DAY in tomb, experiences RESURRECTION near very END of that day, before first day of week/Wave Sheaf begins.
The above works seamlessly in that Yeshu?a was the Lamb of Eloheem for Passover, and He entered the city and was declared without fault by the peoples, priests, and scribes for four days, just as the lamb was to be taken into the home and inspected for four days.
Then His crucifixion took place on Wednesday afternoon, and that night, after His death, would begin the "sign of Yonah" for a complete set of three days and three nights, except that obviously the night portion had to start FIRST, since He was in the tomb before nightfall. This necessitates that the Sabbath DAY period was the final THIRD DAY, with the THIRD NIGHT having immediately preceded it. Does that make sense? According to when He entered the tomb, the night that began the Sabbath had to have counted as the THIRD NIGHT of the sign of Yonah. This means that He arose at the ending of the Sabbath day.
I think the overwhelming evidence from Scripture shows that He did arise ON the THIRD DAY, although at a very late time, so as to actually technically be there for the majority of the period:
Matthew 16:21 / 17:23 / 20:19 / 26:61 / 27:40 / 27:64
Mark 8:31 (Peshitta does not contain "after" -- otherwise this would be the only text stating "after") / 9:31 / 10:34 / 14:58 / 15:29
Luke 9:22
John 2:19
Acts 10:40
1st Corinthians 15:4
I'm always open to clarification, though. but i found it to be stated more clearly from the Peshitta than the Greek.
