Where are the traditions of Ash Wednesday and Lent found in the Bible?

Like "Christmas" and "Easter"... Ash Wednesday and Lent are also neither found nor commanded by God for man to observe in His inspired texts. God's "Christ-centered" Holy Day feasts are recorded in Leviticus 23.
The "holidays" that modern professing Christianity observes [like the four listed above] are all rooted in ancient, pagan custom and tradition that was adopted and adapted to the name of Christ when God opened the door to the Gentile nations.
"...'These people honor Me with their lips, but their hearts are far away. Their worship is a farce, for they replace God's Commandments with their own man-made teachings.' For you ignore God's specific laws and substitute your own traditions. Then He said, 'You reject God's laws in order to hold on to your own traditions.' " (Mark 7:7-9 NLT New Living Translation)
