About Easter

The week immediately before Easter is celebrated as the Holy Week. The origins of Easter can be found in the beginnings of Christianity. Easter is perhaps the oldest Christian observance. On Easter Sunday, Christians celebrate the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ and this Sunday is the well-attended Sunday service of the year for Christian churches. The belief is that which is as per the scriptures that Jesus came back to life or was raised from the dead, three days after his death on the cross. As part of the Easter season, the death of Jesus Christ by crucifixion is commemorated on Good Friday, always the Friday just before Easter

There are certain conflicts over the date of Easter. And it can be mentioned here that many of the cultural historians find in the celebration of Easter a convergence of the three traditions - Pagan, Hebrew and Christian.
