Easter, also called Pascha (Greek, Latin) or Resurrection Sunday, is a festival and holiday celebrating the resurrection of Jesus from the dead, described in the New Testament as having occurred on the third day of his burial after his crucifixion by the Romans at Calvary c. 30 AD. This festival comes with lots of jubilations and festivities, Church services, family meals, Easter egg decorations, and gift-giving. The eggs and Bunnies are very popular Easter gift-giving characters.
