Easter is the most important religious holiday in the Christian
liturgical year. Christians believe that Jesus was resurrected three days after his crucifixion. Many Christian denominations celebrate his resurrection on Easter Day or Easter Sunday (also called Resurrection Day or Resurrection Sunday), two days after Good Friday. Any other religious holiday in the Orthodox calendar, including Christmas, is less important than the celebration of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. This is reflected in rich Easter customs in countries with an Orthodox Christian majority. The Resurrection of the Lord, also called the feast of Easter, that is, the day when evil and cunning will be put aside, putting on the garment of truth and joy, is the oldest celebration of Christianity. It is the celebration that brought humanity the hope of salvation and eternal life, through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. The Resurrection of the Lord is celebrated on Sunday by both Orthodox, Catholics and Protestants, the last time they celebrated the Resurrection together on April.
