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. It is the third day from the burial of Jesus Christ when he was resurrected from the dead.
