Easter now is a Christian celebration of the rise from death of Jesus Christ and his ascention into Heaven.
The word itself is from the Anglo-Saxon (Old English) word Eostre, an Anglo-Saxon pagan goddess which is descendant from the Proto-Indo-European word Ostara meaning "goddess of the dawn". Only English preserves this ancient connection. The vast majority of the languages of the world where the celebration is practiced uses a name related to the Latin word Pascha which itself is from the ancient Hebrew word for the Passover.
On Good Friday, Jesus died on the cross. They said that in three days he would rise from the dead. On Sunday, a woman looked inside the burial tomb. Jesus Christ was gone. He rose from the dead to free all of us from evil. And so, every April 4 is a Sunday, Easter Sunday.
it was made by a goddess named dawn and it means the beginning of spring.
Easter (originally spelled Ishtar) started in ancient Babylon about 4000 years ago. It was first used to pervert the celebration of the resurrection of the Messiah about 1700 years ago.
