Your question may well have been addressed by Catholic scripture scholars but to the best of my knowledge there is no official Catholic Church teaching on your question, the matter resting entirely upon how Jews of the first century counted days...thus, that Jesus died, and was entombed on Friday...counting as one day...Saturday counting as one day...and His resurrection early Sunday morning counting as one day...confirms the scripture record of events.
