/ world today news/ Resurrection of Christ, Easter, is the biggest holiday for Orthodox Christians, called the Feast of All Feasts. The resurrection of Jesus Christ is believed to be the greatest event in human history.
In the Christian religion, Resurrection of Christ (Easter) celebrates the resurrection of Jesus Christ on the third day after he was crucified and buried.
At the announcement of the Resurrection, the priest takes out a lighted candle from the church, from which all those present light their candles, which they carry around their homes. The sequence related to the lighting of the candles is borrowed from a similar one that takes place in Jerusalem, in the temple “St. Resurrection”, at the descent of the Grace Fire.
Between Easter and Pentecost, people continue to greet each other with the “Christ is Risen” greeting.
It is a centuries-old tradition for the holiday that painted eggs are present on the table. For the first time, painted eggs are beaten on the night after the Resurrection of Christ, and for those who take communion on Easter – after that.
Kozunaks, whose history goes back three centuries, are also characteristic of Easter. In our country, kozunaks were prepared after 1920, and first in the cities. After the long fast, lamb is also present at the festive table.
The red eggs are a symbol of Christ’s martyr’s blood, and the goat cheese is a symbol of the lamb of God – Christ.
