Christians worldwide are preparing to celebrate Easter on this Sunday, marking the revival of Jesus Christ.
The celebration traditionally begins with Good Friday on Friday before Easter, which remembers Christ’s climb on the cross. While the word “Good Friday” is not found in the Bible, the scripture explains how Jesus was beaten, joking by Roman soldiers, and forced to carry a cross on his cross site.
The Easter festival is spread in some countries on Easter Monday, such as the UK, where it is marked with a public holiday.
The holiday comes on a different date every year as it falls on the full moon first after spring equinox, some time between 22 March and 25 April.
Good Friday and Easter Mondays are not federal holidays, so banks and post offices will work under normal hours.
