Easter 2010: Easter Days

Holy Thursday
Holy Thursday also referred to as Maundy Thursday. In Europe the Christian monarchs used to wash the feet of poor people on the Thursday before Easter in memory of Jesus's Act.

Also on this day Jesus ate and drank with his followers. This meal became known as the Last Supper, because Jesus died soon after.

Good Friday
Good Friday is the commemoration of the Trial and Crucifixion of Jesus. In some countries the bells are tolled while in other countries they are silenced until Sunday. A custom also is the eating of Hot Cross Buns. Many superstitions go with hot cross buns such as they are a charm against evil and to keep indefinitely.

Holy Saturday
Holy Saturday is part of the period mourning which begins on Good Friday. For Christians in countries such as Bulgaria, Greece and Poland, Hoy Saturday is a day of cooking, ready for the feasting the following day to celebrate the Resurrection.

Easter 2010 Song: Traditional Jewish Easter Song

Jewish Easter Song

How does this night differ from all
other nights?

On all other nights we may eat
leavened and unleavened bread , and on
this night only unleavened.

On all other nights we are permitted to
eat any kind of herbs, and this night
better herbs.

On all other nights we are not required
to dig even once, and on this night we
are required to do so twice.

On all other nights we eat either sitting
upright or leaning, on this night we all
lean.

Here Comes Peter Cottontail

Here comes Peter Cottontail
Hoppin' down the bunny trail,
Hippity hoppity,
Easter's on its way

Bringin' ev'ry girl and boy
A basketful of Easter joy
Things to make your Easter
Bright and gay

Colored eggs for sister Sue
There's an orchid for your mommy
And an Easter bonnet too. Oh!
