Saying, Sir, we remember that this deceiver said, while he was yet alive, After three days I will rise again.

Saying, Sirach , we remember that deceiver said, when He was yet alive. "That impostor" (S. Augustine, Hom. xxxvi. inter1.). "By this name," he says also (in Psalm 43:7), "was the Lord Jesus Christ called, to console His servants when called deceivers."
After three days I will rise again. Three days not completed, but only begun, i.e, within three days, or the third day after.
