Easter Bible Verses To Contemplate Under Quarantine

Easter Bible Verses To Contemplate Under Quarantine

Even though the Holy Land’s coronavirus lockdown resumes. In the Holy Land, Easter is on 12 April - a week later for Eastern Orthodox churches - Passover begins on 8 April.

This is such a once-in-a-life situation for this time of the year would be filled with pilgrims from all over the world who join the local Christians to celebrate the Holy Week.

The one thing that didn't change this year is fasting. Easter in the Holy land starts with fasting as our Savior did for forty days. The fasting symbolizes the compassion and sympathy of the great sacrifice of Jesus Christ.

This Easter is our time to remember that Jesus bore the stripes of pain and suffering, he bowed under the weight of the cross, he shed his blood, and he entered the tomb.

In addition, it is our time to celebrate that he broke the bonds of death and rose to live forever, although we'll have to do it under quarantine.

With these Easter bible verses, let’s remember His sacrifice for us by the power given to him by our heavenly father to overcome death. He has proven that when we trust in the Lord, there can’t be any death.

1 Corinthians 15:3-8

"For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance. Or you at the first: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, and that he appeared to Cephas. That is, Peter and then to the Twelve. After that, he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers and sisters at the same time, most of whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep. Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles, and last of all he appeared to me also, as to one abnormally born."
