Easter Sunday is a religious Christian holiday that is observed globally to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ, and while holidays like Christmas have fixed dates, the date for Easter changes from year to year.
According to the Bible, it marks the third day after Jesus was crucified when he rose from the dead.
Around the world, Easter is celebrated in various ways, with many cultures incorporating their own traditions and customs into the holiday. Holy Week begins on Palm Sunday, the Sunday before Easter. It is a time when Catholics gather to remember and participate in the Passion of Jesus Christ. The Passion was the final period of Christ’s life in Jerusalem.
It covers the span from when He arrived in Jerusalem to when He was crucified. Easter celebrates the resurrection of Jesus Christ, who rose on the third day after being crucified by the Romans, according to the Bible. (ANI)
