Easter also called Pasch or Resurrection Sunday, is
a festival and holiday celebrating
the resurrection of Jesus Christ from
the dead, described in the New Testament as having occurred on the third day of his burial
after his crucifixion by Romans at Calvary c. 30
AD. It is the culmination of the Passion of
Christ, preceded by Lent (or Great Lent), a forty-day period of fasting, prayer, and penance.
