Good Friday is a Christian feast that honors Jesus’ execution and death at Calvary.

Good Friday has been honored as a day of grief, repentance, and fasting from the early history of Christianity, a feature reflected in the German name Karfreitag (sorrowful Friday).

On Friday, April 15, 2022, Good Friday will be observed by Christians all over the world.

The core of Christian tradition has maintained that Jesus’ final dinner with his followers on the evening before his Execution was a Passover dinner, based on the Synoptic Gospels (Matthew, Mark, and Luke).

Good Friday meaning: Why is it called Good Friday?

Good Friday, the Friday before Easter, is the yearly commemoration of Jesus Christ’s crucifixion by Christians.

Christians refer to this Friday as Good Friday because it is the day on which Christians commemorate Jesus and his crucifixion at the hands of the Roman Empire and religious authorities of the day.

It is a special day for Christians due to the fact that it marks the death of a savior and sacrificial lamb who came to this world purposely to redeem mankind.
