Easter is a religious holiday celebrated by Christians to remember the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
复活节是由基督徒庆祝以纪念耶稣复活的宗教节日。
As written in the New Testament of the Bible, Christians believe Jesus was betrayed by His disciple Judas shortly after the Last Supper. Because of this, He was arrested by Temple Guards in the Garden of Gethsemane, and crucified by Pontius Pilate over accusations that He claimed to be the Son of God. The day of His crucifixion is commemorated by Christians as a holiday called Good Friday.
如同新约圣经里所记载的，基督徒相信耶稣在最后的晚餐不久后被他的门徒犹大背叛。因此，他在客西马尼园被神殿卫兵逮捕，且因为他声称是上帝之子的指控而被彼拉多钉上十字架。他被钉在十字架上处死的那一天，被基督徒当做一个称为耶稣受难日的节日来纪念。
After His death, Jesus's body was wrapped and laid to rest in a tomb by Joseph of Arimathea. His subsequent resurrection is revealed two days later when female visitors discover His empty tomb. It is His rising from the dead that is celebrated as Easter.
在他的死亡后，耶稣的躯体被包裹起来，并由亚利马太的约瑟放进一座墓里安息。他接下来的复活是在两天之后，当女性访客发现他空空荡荡的墓时被揭露的。正是他的死而复生被当作复活节来庆祝。
Since Easter falls on the first Sunday following the first full moon after the spring equinox,
it takes place between March 22 and April 25 in Western Christianity. As Jesus's resurrection proved to Christians He was truly God's son and that, with faith, they too will be given new life,
it is one of the cornerstones of the religion.
因为复活节落在春分之后的第一次月圆后的第一个周日，所以在西方基督教中它在3月22日至4月25日间举行。因为耶稣的复活向基督徒证明了他确实是上帝之子，且有着信念，他们也将会被给予新的生命，所以这是这宗教的基石之一。
Preceding Easter Sunday is Holy Saturday, which is the last day of what is known as Holy Week. Holy Saturday marks the end of a time of fasting, self-denial, and repentance of sins called Lent. It also symbolizes the period between Jesus's death and His resurrection.
在复活节周日前是圣周六，那是以圣周着称的日子里最后一天。圣周六标记了斋戒、自我否定、叫做大斋节的罪过悔改这段时光的结束。它同样也象征了耶稣的死亡及他的复活间那段时期。
The first celebration at Jesus's resurrection by many traditional churches is the Easter or Paschal Vigil. This important service and Mass is usually held at midnight between Holy Saturday and Easter Sunday, and includes the blessing of the Paschal candle, the celebration of the sacrament of Baptism, the chanting of Alleluia, and the Eucharist for Catholics.
许多传统教堂第一个庆祝耶稣复活的活动是复活节或是守夜礼。这个重要的仪式及弥撒通常举办在圣周六及复活节周日之间，且包括了复活蜡烛祝福、受洗圣礼、圣歌咏唱、以及给天主教的圣餐。
Easter is often celebrated by believers with a feast featuring blessed food, such as lamb, eggs, and ham.
复活节通常让信奉者以一顿以祝福食物为特色的大餐来庆祝，像是羊肉、鸡蛋、以及火腿。
Despite its holy significance to Christians, Easter has become quite commercialized. In the 1200s, people started painting hard-boiled eggs, with the egg representing Jesus's empty tomb. Today, these decorated eggs are sometimes used in Easter egg hunts, though man-made, chocolate eggs are used as well. Every year, the President of the United States invites young children to participate in The White House Easter Egg Roll.
不论它对于基督徒的神圣意义，复活节已变得颇商业化的。在1200年间，人们开始彩绘水煮蛋，那蛋代表耶稣空荡荡的墓。今日，这些装饰蛋有时被用在复活节寻蛋活动，虽然是人造的，也会使用巧克力蛋。每一年，美国总统邀请年幼的孩子参加白宫复活节滚蛋大赛。
It is believed the rabbits were first linked to Easter by European Protestant in the 1600s.This idea has evolved into the figure of the basket-carrying Easter Bunny, who distributes Easter eggs and candies to children.
据信兔子是在1600年代由欧洲新教徒首先连结到复活节的。这个点子已演变成提着篮子的复活节兔这角色，牠分送复活节蛋及糖果给孩子们。
Despite its importance in Western and Eastern Christianity, Easter is not celebrated by all Christian groups. Some believe there is no biblical basis for the moveable feast. Since Easter Sunday is not necessarily a public holiday in all Christian nations, Easter Monday is sometimes celebrated as one instead.
即便它在西方及东方基督教中的重要性，并不是全部的基督教团体都庆祝复活节。有些人相信这个不固定日期的节日并没有圣经依据。因为复活节周日并不一定在所有基督教国家中都是国定假日，复活节周一有时被作为替代来庆祝。
The 50 days following Easter are known as Eastertide or the Easter Season, which celebrates Jesus's new life after His resurrection, including His Ascension into heaven. For some Easter cooking ideas, or for more great historical videos, be sure to subscribe to WatchMojo.com.
