What is Easter? What is Holy Week (or Passion Week)? Holy week, is a week that remembers the events of the week leading up to Jesus’s crucifixion and resurrection. 1. Starting on Palm Sunday, Jesus would enter Jerusalem riding on a donkey’s colt. The people would celebrate him waving palm branches. Matthew 21:1–11 2. Maundy Thursday would commemorate The Last Supper Jesus shared with his Disciple. It also established the tradition of Communion as Jesus and his disciples would break bread and drink wine to symbolize what Jesus would experience in his suffering on the Cross during the crucifixion. This would also be the time Jesus washed the feet of his disciples symbolize humility, and service. Luke 22:19-20; John 13:3-17 3. Good Friday remembers the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. On this day, Jesus was arrested, put on trial, and ultimately sentenced to death by crucifixion. He willingly endured immense pain and suffering on the cross as a sacrifice for the forgiveness of humanity’s sins. Luke 23: 26-49 4. Holy Saturday represents the time between Jesus’ crucifixion and his resurrection. It was a time of waiting and anticipation. Luke 23: 49-55 5. Easter Sunday (marking the end of the week) is a day filled with joy and celebration for Christians all over the world. It marks the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, which is considered the cornerstone of the Christian faith. Luke 24 (Read it all) This is Holy Week. This is what Easter is about. Although Easter has become adorned with other traditions like Easter egg hunts and dyeing (which, don’t get me wrong I love me some Reese’s eggs), in reality, it so so much more important. Jesus, is the reason we should celebrate Easter! I hope this inspires you to learn more about Jesus and His love for you! (I recommend reading the book of Luke in the Bible for more info. Use the Bible app!) Feel free to ask any questions in the comments and I’ll do my best to answer them! Jesus loves you!❤️
