Features Счастливой Пасхи

The most important Christian holiday - Easter, Orthodox believers jubilantly meet immediately after the strictest Lent of the year.
The history of the holiday goes back to pagan times.
Then Easter was associated with the appearance of the dead in the world of the living.
It was believed that they descend from heaven and come that day to their burial places.With the birth of Christianity, the Great Resurrection began to personify the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Passover began to be celebrated a week later than the Jewish one.
The Orthodox holiday has acquired its own customs and symbols, the main of which is a decorated egg.Christian Easter does not have a fixed date; I celebrate it between April and May, a week after the Easter full moon.
The celebration lasts for 40 days, but the main one is the first week, which begins with the Easter service on Sunday night.
