We celebrate Christ's resurrection and the birth of the church.
The season of Easter begins Easter Sunday and ends on Pentecost, fifty days later. The feast is called Pentecost coming from the Greek word pentekoste or fiftieth. It is held in the Church second only in importance to Easter. It is best understood in context of the original feast of Pentecost in the Jewish tradition also known as Feast of Weeks.
Triduum, the three holiest days from sundown Holy Thursday to sundown Easter Sunday, is a liturgical season unto itself in between the seasons of Lent and Easter. What are the roots of this season and what are the core meanings of the liturgical celebrations of Triduum?
