English information about Easter (short)

Easter (Greek: ∏? σ ◎ α) is the most important annual religious feast in the year of Christian etiquette. [1] According to Christian scripture, Jesus rose from the dead on the third day of suffering. Christians celebrate this resurrection on Easter or Easter [2] (also known as Easter Day or Easter Day) two days after Good Friday and three days after Maundy Day. The timetable of his death and resurrection was variously interpreted as between 2 6 and 36 AD. Easter also refers to the season of the year called Easter. Traditionally, Easter lasts forty days, from Easter to Jesus ascensiontide, but now it officially lasts fifty days until Pentecost. The first week of Easter is called Easter Week or Easter octave. Easter also marks the end of Lent, a season of fasting, prayer and repentance.

Easter is a mobile festival, which means that it has no fixed relationship with folk calendars. The first meeting of Nicea (325) determined the date of Easter as the first Sunday after the full moon after the vernal equinox (Passover full moon). [3] From the Christian point of view, the vernal equinox is considered to be on March 2 1 day. Therefore, the date of Easter changes between March 22 and April 25. According to julian calendar's calculation, Eastern Christianity in julian calendar on March 2 1 in 2 1 century corresponds to April 3 in the Gregorian calendar, so in the Gregorian calendar, the time when they celebrate Easter changes between April 4 and May 8.

Easter is associated with the Jewish Passover not only because of its symbolic significance, but also because of its position in history.

Relatively new elements, such as Easter Bunny and Easter Egg Hunting, have become a part of modern festival celebrations, which are often celebrated by many Christians and non-Christians. There are also some Christian sects that don't celebrate Easter.
