Commemorated on the initial Sunday on a moon day after March 21, Easter is a festival of utmost importance to every Christian.
It is marked after Good Friday, to celebrate the rebirth of Jesus and is also considered as the day of the birth of Christianity.
Jesus died at the time of the Jewish Passover festival, which dates back to 4,000 years when Jewish people remember that God saved them from slavery in Egypt.
He was sentenced to death by the Egyptian ruler; however, defeating all negative energies and evil, he came back to life three days later, and because Jesus rose from the dead on a Sunday, so Easter Day became the first Sunday after Passover.
Many stories narrate that the word ‘Easter’ comes from two old pagan spring festivals. The old European pagan festival of ‘Ostara’ that celebrated new life and Arabian Sun festival of ‘Ishtar’
