 We live and learn. Changes every year in the UK, something to do with moon.

The holiday was first determined by the Jewish calendar which is lunar based; the 15th day of Nisan is always a full moon and begins Passover. The holiday was then called pascha [Greek for Passover].
These days it's the first full moon after March 20 as in first full moon after the Equinox but for convenience [at least in the US] is celebrated on Sunday.
March 28th was the start of Passover [Wormwood full moon] while April 4th is the end of Passover and Easter.

That being said, Jews celebrate an Exodus, Christians celebrate a Resurrection. Huge difference. One is hard work, the other is a miracle beyond all miracles, only one God can cause or perform. But let me not start getting defensive or egotistical here... I've had a rough year, would hate to cause something like that again. Pride and egotism are indeed the greatest sins in the Christian faith. Perhaps others too. Sorry guys. So hard to quit that. |

I see you've found the difference between Passover and Easter.
Try to remember at times hard work can be the basis of a miracle. Those who were marked for death [either by gas or starvation] yet against all odds survived the Konzentrationslager had to work hard to survive what they went through.
For now I need to get back to reading; tetragametic chimerism and 46XY CAIS are interesting subjects. At least interesting subjects when not chasing down a three-year-old hopped up on candy left by chicken-turned-into-an-egg-laying-bunny by a Germanic goddess.

I hope all those who celebrate Easter had a happy Easter. On Easter Sunday here in England the BBC broadcast the Archbishop of Canterbury’s Easter Sunday service. As Maggie said it is also the time of year for religious Jews to celebrate Pesach and I hope they had a happy Pesach. When I was in Israel I was invited to my very first seder.
Passover (or Pesach) commemorates the liberation of the Hebrew slaves from Egypt. A feast called a seder is held on the first two nights and sometimes on the final two nights of the holiday. No leavened food (e.g., bread, cake) or anything containing wheat is eaten during Passover. During the last two days of Passover, no work is permitted.
About this time of year also other religions celebrate their festivals and I hope they all had or will have a happy Festival.
Vernal Equinox - Druid,
Ridvan - Baha'i
Rama Navami - Hindu
Hanamatsuri - Buddhist, Japan
Songkran - Buddhist, Thailand
Vaisakhi - Sikh
The Prophet's Night Journey and Ascent - Muslim
Beltane - Wiccan/Pagan/Druid

Thanks, Ken. Easter is May 2nd for us. Not all people in this world use the same calendar. Besides the Jewish calendar mentioned above, there are also Christian calendars. Originally adopted from the Romans: the Julian calendar. However, it was not entirely accurate, and in the long term there was a problem with the leap days. Pope Gregory then commissioned experts to reform the calendar. The new Gregorian calendar was then introduced 1582 in the Western Church (Roman Catholic; with a religious-political motivated delay also in the protestant churchs and regions - protestant regions of Switzerland like Zurich, Geneva or Neuchatel adoptet the reform in 1701 and the municipalities Schiers and Grüsch in the province of Grisons as latest to adapt the Gregorian calendar in Europe in 1812 only), while the Eastern Churches (Orthodox) remained with the Julian calendar. A few years ago, Easter was coincidentally (respectively due to a celestial constellation) on the same Sunday in the East and West. Efforts were made to use this common Easter as an occasion to celebrate the Resurrection on the same day worldwide in the future. The contacts between the church leaders were friendly, but neither wanted to definitely come to the other on the question of the date.
Interesting detail: During the calendar reform, the 12th of January 1584 became the 22nd of January 1584 or, for example, the 1st became the 12th of January 1701. In the Protestant principality of Neuchatel, there were shifted days of the week from 1584 to 1701 in the main part with the Julian calendar and in the Catholic town of Le Landeron with the Gregorian calendar. The Catholics in particular had to watch out: An appointment in the capital on Monday was Thursday for them. Or an external festival on a Sunday was for them on Wednesday... |

I've been enjoying all the information here today. Never late to learn more. |
