Passover commemorates the Hebrews escape from enslavement in Egypt when the spirit of the Lord passed over their homes. The word Easter appears once in the King James version of the Bible when Herod put Peter in prison, "intending after Easter to bring him forth to the people" (Acts 12:4). Yet in the original Greek text the word is not Easter, but Pesach, that is Passover (read more). For many, Easter is the celebration of the resurrection of Jesus Christ three days after being crucified and for others, it's the Easter Bunny, hidden colored eggs and lots of candy!
However you celebrate, may you have a blessed time with family and friends!
