EASTER
| Between March 22 and April 25 every year since 325 AD the 1st Sunday after
the 1st full moon. The origin of Easter is the mythological goddesses"Ostra",
"Ostern", "Eostre"
or "Eastre".
The Oxford English Dictionary reads, "festival was celebrated at the
vernal equinox; her name shows that she was originally the dawn-goddess." Vernal equinox: the first day of spring, when the length of the day and the length of the night are equal. |
| The Jewish festival of Passover, Pesach. An important feast, celebrated for 8 days and commemorates the flight and freedom of the Israelites from slavery in Egypt. Though the King James Bible has the word "Easter" in Acts 12:4, it was used only as a synonym for the Passover, or the Feast of Unleavened Bread, as Herod waited for the right time to kill Peter and not offend the Jews. |
| Bible Christians say they cannot find Easter in the Bible. They oppose it with all their might and they baptize by immersion in water, which is a symbolic picture of His death, burial, and resurrection. |
| Good Friday the sixth day of the week, is the Germanic translation of "dies Veneris" or "Day of Venus." Venus was the Roman goddess of sexual love. |
