Orthodox Easter celebrated across the world

Apart from the Serbian Church, Christ’s resurrection is also celebrated by the Russian, Greek, Bulgarian and Ethiopian churches, as well as a number of Alaskan natives, as well as Orthodox believers in Egypt.

Church teachings say that Jesus was crucified on Friday, on Saturday he lay in the grave, in Joseph's garden, while on Sunday at dawn a strong earthquake was felt and the angel of God landed on the grave. The guards guarding the tomb fell down in fear as if they were dead, and Jesus rose again.
