There are folks who believe in a 6th day of the week crucifixion/1st day of the week resurrection. Some of those folks also believe that the "heart of the earth" mentioned in Matthew 12:40 is referring to the tomb. The Messiah said that he would be in the 'heart of the earth' for 3 days and 3 nights. A 6th day of the week crucifixion/first day of the week resurrection allows for only 2 night times to be involved. To explain the missing night, some of those folks have said that the Messiah was using common idiomatic/figure of speech/colloquial language of the period. However, to legitimately say that it was common, they would have to know of other instances where such usage was employed. I wonder if anyone who thinks it was common could show some examples to support commonality?

Elvira,
re: "Well I can tell you exactly when Jesus death was..."
That's an issue for a different topic.
re: "But here is probably the explanation you're lookinf for..."
I don't see where the link shows examples of where a daytime or a night time was forecast to be involved with an event when no part of the daytime or no part of the night time could have occurred.
Common Jewish Idiom?
PoS,
re: "Oy."
I wonder if you might be a bit more specific. What is there about this topic that is causing you such anguish?
I dont have a problem. You asked for a Jewish idiom and I gave you one. Youre welcome.
