Easter
Easter is one of the most important Christian holidays; this holiday is celebrated in honor of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, although the celebration of Easter itself dates back to the Ancient Testament and the Jewish holiday of Pesach. Initially, the Jewish holiday of Pesach or Passover was associated with agriculture and cattle breeding, and after the exodus of the Jewish people from Egyptian slavery, the celebration of Passover acquired a different meaning. Christian Easter, like Jewish Easter, is also a holiday of liberation, only the liberation of Christians from the slavery of sin through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The Easter holiday is preceded by a long fast, and Orthodox Christians adhere to it especially strictly. During this period, except for religious rituals, eating meat and many other dishes is prohibited. But during the celebration of Easter these prohibitions are lifted, and a huge variety of dishes are cooked for it.
When is Easter in 2024, 2025 or 2026?
Every year the question arises: when will Easter be this year? Confusion about the date of Easter is caused by chronology - most Christian churches use the Gregorian calendar, some use the New Julian calendar, and some use the Julian calendar, which differs from the two previous calendars by about two weeks. But that’s not all - the date of Easter celebration is calculated according to the lunisolar calendar, so the celebration of Easter is not just shifted by two weeks - every year Easter is celebrated on different days, and at the same time in different calendars this date may be different, or may even coincide. For example, Easter in 2024, according to all calendars, is celebrated on Sunday, March 31, 2024, in 2025 - on April 20, but in 2026, Catholics will celebrate Easter on April 5, but Orthodox Christians will celebrate Easter a week later - on April 12.
