This event is commemorated annually on the first Sunday following the first full moon after the vernal equinox, a date that varies each year but typically falls between March 22 and April 25.<br><br><b>Biblical Basis</b><br><br>The resurrection of Jesus is documented in all four Gospels of the New Testament. According to the Gospel of Matthew, "He is not here; He has risen, just as He said! Come, see the place where He lay" (<a href="/matthew/28-6.htm">Matthew 28:6</a>). Similarly, the Gospel of Mark records, "He has risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid Him" (<a href="/mark/16-6.htm">Mark 16:6</a>). The Gospel of Luke states, "He is not here; He has risen! Remember how He told you, while He was still in Galilee" (<a href="/luke/24-6.htm">Luke 24:6</a>). The Gospel of John provides a detailed account of Mary Magdalene's encounter with the risen Christ (<a href="/john/20-11.htm">John 20:11-18</a>).<br><br>The Apostle Paul emphasizes the significance of the resurrection in <a href="/1_corinthians/15-14.htm">1 Corinthians 15:14</a>, "And if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is worthless, and so is your faith" . This underscores the resurrection as a cornerstone of Christian belief, affirming Jesus' victory over sin and death.<br><br><b>Historical and Theological Significance</b><br><br>Easter is the culmination of the Passion of Jesus, preceded by Lent, a 40-day period of fasting, prayer, and penance. The week leading up to Easter is known as Holy Week, which includes Maundy Thursday, commemorating the Last Supper, and Good Friday, observing the crucifixion and death of Jesus.<br><br>Theologically, Easter is a celebration of the new life and hope brought through Jesus' resurrection. It signifies the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies and the promise of eternal life for believers. As Paul writes in <a href="/romans/6-4.htm">Romans 6:4</a>, "We were therefore buried with Him through baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may walk in newness of life" .<br><br><b>Traditions and Observances</b><br><br>Easter is marked by various traditions and customs, many of which have deep historical roots. The Easter Vigil, held on Holy Saturday night, is a significant liturgical event in many Christian denominations, featuring the lighting of the Paschal candle, readings from Scripture, and the celebration of the Eucharist.<br><br>In addition to religious services, Easter is often associated with cultural customs such as the Easter egg, symbolizing new life and resurrection. The egg, often decorated and hidden for children to find, reflects the joy and celebration of the season.<br><br><b>Conclusion</b><br><br>Easter remains a central and defining celebration within Christianity, embodying the core message of the Gospel: the triumph of Jesus Christ over death and the hope of eternal life for all who believe.<a name="top" id="top"></a><div class="vheading2">Topical Bible Verses</div><span class="rtext"><a href="/john/3-16.htm">John 3:16</a></span><br>For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.<br><span class="source">Topicalbible.org</span><p><span class="rtext"><a href="/context/1_corinthians/11-23.htm">1 Corinthians 11:23-26</a></span><br>For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered to you, That the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread:<br><span class="source">Topicalbible.org</span><p><a name="eas" id="eas"></a><div class="vheading2">Easton's Bible Dictionary</div>Originally a Saxon word (Eostre), denoting a goddess of the Saxons, in honour of whom sacrifices were offered about the time of the Passover. Hence the name came to be given to the festival of the Resurrection of Christ, which occured at the time of the Passover. In the early English versions this word was frequently used as the translation of the Greek pascha (the Passover). When the Authorized Version (1611) was formed, the word "passover" was used in all passages in which this word pascha occurred, except in Act 12:4.

There is no trace of Easter celebration in the New Testament, though some would see an intimation of it in <a href="/1_corinthians/5-7.htm">1 Corinthians 5:7</a>. The Jewish Christians in the early church continued to celebrate the Passover, regarding Christ as the true paschal lamb, and this naturally passed over into a commemoration of the death and resurrection of our Lord, or an Easter feast. This was preceded by a fast, which was considered by one party as ending at the hour of the crucifixion, i.e. at 3 o'clock on Friday, by another as continuing until the hour of the resurrection before dawn on Easter morning. Differences arose as to the time of the Easter celebration, the Jewish Christians naturally fixing it at the time of the Passover feast which was regulated by the paschal moon. According to this reckoning it began on the evening of the 14th day of the moon of the month of Nican without regard to the day of the week, while the GentileChristians identified it with the first day of the week, i.e. the Sunday of the resurrection, irrespective of the day of the month. This latter practice finally prevailed in the church, and those who followed the other reckoning were stigmatized as heretics. But differences arose as to the proper Sunday for the Easter celebration which led to long and bitter controversies. The Council of Nice, 325 A.D., decreed that it should be on Sunday, but did not fix the particular Sunday. It was left to the bishop of Alexandria to determine, since that city was regarded as the authority in astronomical matters and he was to communicate the result of his determination to the other bishops.<br><br>But this was not satisfactory, especially to the western churches, and a definite rule for the determination of Easter was needed. By some it was kept as early as March 21, and by others as late as April 25, and others followed dates between. The rule was finally adopted, in the 7th century, to celebrate Easter on the Sunday following the 14th day of the calendar moon which comes on, or after, the vernal equinox which was fixed for March 21. This is not always the astronomical moon, but near enough for practical purposes, and is determined without astronomical calculation by certain intricate rules adopted by ecclesiastical authority. These rules involve the Dominical Letters, or the first seven of the alphabet, representing the days of the week, A standing for the first day of the year and the one on which Sunday falls being called the Dominical for that year. There are also involved the Golden Numbers and the Epacts, the first being the numbers from 1 to 19, the cycle of the moon when its phases recur on the same days of the year, the first of the cycle being that in which the new moon falls on January 1. The Epacts indicate the moon's age at the beginning of each year. Easter was thus fixed by these rules, but another difficulty arose when the Gregorian calendar was adopted in 1582, the difference between it and the Julian being then 10 days. This of course affected the determination of Easter, and its celebration by the Greek church, which has never admitted the Gregorian calendar, occurs usually at a different time from that followed by the western churches. This difference may be as much as five weeks and it may occur as late as April 30, while in the West it cannot occur later than April 25 nor earlier than March 22. Occasionally the two come together but this is rare, since the difference between the two calendars is now 13 days.<br><br>The Easter feast has been and still is regarded as the greatest in the Christian church, since it commemorates the most important event in the life of its Founder.<br><br>H.
