My wife said something to me last night that raised my eyebrow. She said when Jesus died (was crucified), that he came back to life (in the flesh) and walked the earth for 81 days. I know that when Jesus died, his soul arose from the dead. But not in the flesh.  Which is right?

In trying to understand the sequence of events by studying each of the gospels, there appears to be a couple of different possible timelines. What are your thoughts?
