Easter is the most religious date of the year, to nearly all Christians. It’s the day Jesus arose from the dead. It’s a festive celebration with spring colors, Easter eggs, flowers, and bunnies. How does Jesus resurrection correlate with eggs and bunnies? How does his resurrection correspond with Easter?

Easter has been celebrated, since at least, the fourth century and an yearly celebration of the resurrection. Even when some churches didn’t accept some of the religious holidays, Easter has always been a special day for Christians.

Before the fourth century, Christians celebrated “Pasha or Pesach”, adapted from the Jews. Pesach was a celebration of the crucifixion as well as resurrection of Jesus, this was celebrated during spring. Several gentile Christians didn’t want to accept Jewish traditions but gradually, following the fourth century, Easter became an accepted holiday.

Easter and holidays related to it (Passover) are movable feast. They do not fall on a certain date. They’re founded on the lunar calendar, created by the Council of Nicaea, in A.D. 325. These calculations of their dates are complex but Easter is celebrated on the first Sunday following the first full moon following the Spring Equinox (March 21st). Easter can be from March 22nd to April 25th. In Western Christianity, Easter marks the end of the forty days of Lent. During Lent, we fast and pray to get ready for Easter, start Ash Wednesday and ending on Easter Sunday. Easter has not fallen on March 22nd since 1818 and won’t until 2285!
Easter also has a non religious side. Through the 2nd century, Easter was initially a pagan festival. The very old Saxons celebrated this holiday for their Divinity of Offspring and springtime, Easter. When the Christians noticed many tribes were worshiping Easter, they tried to modify their faith to Christianity. The Christians slowly, but surely, spread their faith but allowed the tribes to celebrate pagan feasts, Easter occurred at the same time as Christ’s Resurrection. Over time, Easter was converted to a Christian celebration and named Easter. To have great times during Easter you can spend the Ofertas semana santa Barcelona
