After the third day when he came back to life, he did not stay among his prophets for many days and went to heaven.
It is said that in India they taught to be buried for three days and come back to life.
Perhaps Jesus learned this method.
Because they nailed his bones and shoulder blades, he must have got an infection and died! Otherwise, he would have lived for 30-40 years and led his religion.

Maybe he never came back after the execution and his prophets lied.

I’ve always wondered why Jesus felt it necessary to go through all the rigamarole of getting himself crucified. Since he was meant to die for our sins anyway, throwing himself under any passing oxcart would have worked just as well.

It's all tied up in rituals about blood sacrifice. As the scapegoat that the Jews let loose in the desert to suffer and die was supposed to expiate their sins, so the passion of Christ is a form of ritual purging, with all this going back to the long tradition of blood magic. I saw an interesting documentary where they cut open an animal and splattered its blood around the tires and corners of a military truck, to bring good luck in battle. Blood magic is way old.
