I am not someone who has read much on this matter, but it appears very much like these classical Muslim commentaries are based a lot on the stories of Jesus's "resurrection" from the Bible itself and not any Islamic scripture. In which case, these comments are no more reliable than the Bible itself.

Additionally, according to Bart Ehrman some of these particular portions from the Bible that are mentioned here, are absent from the earliest Gospels, indicating that they might have been inserted later on.

Another thing, Qur'an 3:55 is translated differently by other scholars. So me have indeed used the word die, (i.e. O Jesus, verily, I will cause you to die and will raise you) while others have translated to "raise up" (i.e. O Jesus! I will take thee and raise thee to Myself).

for views that no replacement of body happen, then the death is referring to Jesus in sleep stature (minor death). Hence why some Muslim of the past has no problem to proceed with quoting stories from Christians sources where Jesus regains  awareness after after 3 hours, some say 7 hours, some Christians say after 3 days.

So Jesus was then raised. And will return to be partaking in battle against False Messiah, Ya'juj Ma'juj before his death.

Quote
And there is none from the People of the Scripture but that he will surely believe in Jesus before his death. And on the Day of Resurrection he will be against them a witness. (4:159)
