The Story of
Easter
Easter
is a time of springtime festivals.
In Christian countries Easter is
celebrated as the religious
holiday commemorating the
resurrection of Jesus Christ, the
son of God. But the celebrations
of Easter have many customs and
legends that are pagan in origin
and have nothing to do with
Christianity
Scholars,
accepting the derivation proposed
by the 8th-century English scholar
St. Bede, believe the name Easter
is thought to come from the
Scandinavian "Ostra"
and the Teutonic "Ostern"
or "Eastre,"
both Goddesses of mythology
signifying spring and fertility
whose festival was celebrated on
the day of the vernal equinox
Traditions
associated with the festival
survive in the Easter rabbit, a
symbol of fertility, and in
colored easter eggs, originally
painted with bright colors to
represent the sunlight of spring,
and used in Easter-egg rolling
contests or given as gifts
The
Christian celebration of Easter
embodies a number of converging
traditions with emphasis on the
relation of Easter to the Jewish
festival of Passover,
or Pesach, from which is derived
Pasch, another name used by
Europeans for Easter. Passover
is an important feast in the
Jewish calendar which is
celebrated for 8 days and
commemorates the flight and
freedom of the Israelites from
slavery in Egypt
The
early Christians, many of whom
were of Jewish origin, were
brought up in the Hebrew tradition
and regarded Easter as a new
feature of the Passover festival,
a commemoration of the advent of
the Messiah as foretold by the
prophets. (For more information
please visit our Passover
celebration - Passover
on the Net)
Easter
is observed by the churches of the
West on the first Sunday following
the full moon that occurs on or
following the spring equinox
(March 2I). So Easter became a
"movable" feast which
can occur as early as March 22 or
as late as April 25
Christian
churches in the East which were
closer to the birthplace of the
new religion and in which old
traditions were strong, observe
Easter according to the date of
the Passover festival
Easter
is at the end of the Lenten
season, which covers a
forty-six-day period that begins
on Ash Wednesday and ends with
Easter. The Lenten season itself
comprises forty days, as the six
Sundays in Lent are not actually a
part of Lent. Sundays are
considered a commemoration of
Easter Sunday and have always been
excluded from the Lenten fast. The
Lenten season is a period of
penitence in preparation for the
highest festival of the church
year, Easter
Holy
Week, the last week of Lent,
begins its with the observance of
Palm Sunday. Palm Sunday takes its
name from Jesus' triumphal entry
into Jerusalem where the crowds
laid palms at his feet. Holy
Thursday commemorates the Last
Supper, which was held the evening
before the Crucifixion. Friday in
Holy Week is the anniversary of
the Crufixion, the day that Christ
was crucified and died on the
cross
Holy
week and the Lenten season end
with Easter Sunday, the day of
resurrection of Jesus Christ
