What was the exact date Jesus rose from the dead?

GENESIS 8:4
Then the ark rested in the seventh month, the seventeenth day of the month, on the mountains of Ararat. 
For 40 days and nights, it rained so hard that the whole world perished, except for Noah and those who were with him in the ark. At the end of 150 days, on the 17th day of the seventh month, the ark rested on the mountains of Ararat.

In Hebrew, the word “Ararat” means “the curse is reversed”. The waters of judgment receded, causing the ark to rest on the mountains of Ararat, on new ground where the curse is reversed. And it happened on the 17th day of the seventh month on the Feast of Firstfruits—wasn't that the exact date that Jesus rose from the dead 4,000 years later?
