Bible Question:
Where does it mention what we call "Easter" in the Bible? (book, chapter, verse) What is the true meaning of "Easter"? How was it origionally celebrated? Was it celebrated at all? How should we regard it today? |
Bible Answer: gatorgirl, The word Easter is peculiar to certain Germanic languages, of which one is English. Most other Euriopena languages use a word related to the root word for Pasch or Passover. Fore example the Spanish word for Easter is Pascua. Here is a link to an article on the history of the celebration. http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/05224d.htm Emmaus |
