Easter

Easter is the central feast in the Christianliturgical year. According to the Canonical gospels, Jesus rose from the dead on the third day after his crucifixion. His resurrection is celebrated on Easter Day. The chronology of his death and resurrection is variously interpreted to have occurred between AD 26 and 36.  Easter is a moveable feast, meaning it is not fixed in relation to the civil calendar.  Easter customs vary across the Christian world, but decorating Easter eggs is a common motif. In the Western world, customs such as egg hunting and the Easter Bunny extend from the domain of church, and often have a secular character.
Good Friday (from the senses piousholy of the word "good"),[1][2] is a religious holiday observed primarily by Christians commemorating the crucifixion of Jesus Christ and his death at Calvary. The holiday is observed during Holy Week as part of the Paschal Triduum on the Friday preceding Easter Sunday, and may coincide w Easterith the Jewish observance of Passover. It is also known as Black FridayHoly Friday,Great Friday, or Easter Friday,[3] though the latter normally refers to the Friday in Easter week. Based on the details of the Canonical gospels, the Crucifixion of Jesus was most likely to have been on a Friday
