Easter, a significant Christian festival, commemorates the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. Its roots trace back to ancient pagan traditions celebrating the arrival of spring. The word "Easter" is believed to derive from Eostre, a Germanic goddess of fertility and renewal, symbolizing the rebirth of life after winter.
Easter is also known as Pascha or Resurrection Sunday.

.The Christian holiday Easter - also called Pascha or Resurrection Sunday - marks the resurrection of Jesus Christ, who sacrificed himself for the sins of humanity. It proves him as the true son of God who defeated evil and death before ascending to heaven. This year, Easter falls on Sunday, April 9. Easter is described in the New Testament as having occurred on the third day of Christs burial following his crucifixion by the Romans. Easter is a day of feasting and celebration - during which people attend prayer services in the Church, decorate and distribute Easter eggs, and play traditional Easter games such as egg rolling, egg tapping and egg decorating. Meanwhile, Jesus Christs last supper is celebrated as Maundy Thursday, and the entire week from Palm Sunday is called the Holy Week.
