Matthew 27:62-64.
The following day after his death and burial, the Priests and some Pharisees gathered before Pilate to discuss how to secure the tomb so that the imposter will not get stollen by his disciples and later announce that he has risen as he said.
Even after his death, they referred to Jesus as an imposter. What a ridicule! So they went and secured the tomb with a strong seal.
Jesus could have risen on any day but prophecy must be fulfilled and for the reason of observing the Sabbath too. But the believers still hoped that Jesus will resurrect just as he told them.
