Easter Sunday commemorates the resurrection of Jesus Christ. It is the most important Christian celebration. The date of Easter Sunday changes every year, and that changes the date of all the important holy days that come before Easter. It falls between late March and late May. Easter is so important because Christians believe that Jesus rose from the dead, two days after he died on the cross. Jesus'dead body was buried in a cave on Good Friday and two days later the stone that covered the cave’s entrance had been moved and Jesus'body had gone. Various people saw Jesus in the following days and his followers understood God had raised him from the dead. Historians say this happened so復活節me time between 26 and 36 AD.
復活節紀念耶穌復活。這是基督教中最為重要的節日。每年的復活節日期都不同，因此在復活節前所有的宗教節日都會發生變動。通常，復活節會在3月末到5月末之間舉行。因為基督徒相信，耶穌在被釘在在十字架兩天后起死回生。在受難日這一天，耶穌被埋在洞穴中，兩天后，出入洞穴的石塊被人移動，耶穌的尸體消失。在隨后幾天里，許多人稱看到了耶穌，信徒認為這是上帝讓他起死回生。歷史學家認為這一天發生在公元26-36年之間。
People celebrate Easter in many ways around the world. It is a very busy time for churches. Many Christians light a special Pascal candle on the evening before Easter. This represents the rising of Christ. There are special songs and hymns which people sing in church. Children like Easter because their parents and grandparents give them chocolate Easter eggs, a sign of new birth. Schoolchildren usually decorate eggs and display them in their school or give them as gifts. Other things associated with Easter are the Easter Bunny and spring flowers like irises. An unusual Easter tradition in Norway is to solve murder mysteries. Television channels show murder mystery shows and magazines are full of crime stories.
