Yesterday was Greek Orthodox Easter. Greek Orthodox Easter is the conclusion of Greek Orthodox's "Great Lent," a strict 40-day period of fasting. Great Lent ends on Lazarus Saturday, which is when Orthodox Christians believe Jesus resurrected Lazarus from the dead. Greek Orthodox Easter, like other Easter celebrations, honors the resurrection of Jesus after his crucifixion. Many of the Easter traditions and symbols are the same as other Christian Easter celebrations, including church services, feasting and the presence of lilies. Orthodox Easter Orthodox Christians celebrate Easter later than most Christians in the western world because the churches calculate the holiday by different calendars.
