If the biblical story is actually true he didn't die. How can a god die? There was no sacrifice. A three day nap is not a sacrifice.
Then please explain what a sacrifice is..
Giving something up permanently. when someone in the old testament sacrificed a sheep or a cow, it didn't come back three days later as the best sheep or cow in the universe.
None of the people that killed Jesus meant him as a sacrifice to their lord. They were just killing a criminal. Yahweh sent him down to be killed, therefore Yahweh is the one offering him up to be sacrificed. I would expect Yahweh to lose something if it really was a sacrifice, but he's portrayed as an infinite being in all aspects.
Jesus lived longer on earth than many people get to, had an admittedly horrible week on the cross and supposedly in hell, then came back to rule over the cosmos. In the grand scheme of things, what was really lost?
As I've said before, unless he has massive PTSD from being burdened with sin, which should make it very hard to rule anything, I don't see the sacrifice.
