Easter Morning 2021
By: Olde Tymer Date: March 25, 2019, 11:24 am
---------------------------------------------------------
.[font=arial]
The original Easter morning occurred on the first day of the
Jews' week. (Matt 28:1, Mark 16:1-2, and John 20:1)
However, the first day of the Jews' week isn't the anchor for
Jesus' resurrection. The real anchor is whatever night of the
week that the paschal lamb is eaten, and the date for that night
floats on the civil calendar, i.e. it isn't fixed like Christmas
and birthdays.
The paschal dinner is always eaten at night; viz: after the sun
goes down-- all the way down. 2020's night for the dinner will
commence at sundown the afternoon of Wednesday April 08, which
means that Jesus would die on the cross the afternoon of that
same day because his death occurred during the afternoon of the
day that the Jews were preparing for their paschal lamb dinner.
(John 18:28, John 19:14)
The three nights that Jesus predicted in Matt 12:40 are counted
by beginning with the night of the paschal dinner. Seeing as
that night is scheduled to begin in 2020 with sundown the
afternoon of Wednesday April 08, then Wednesday night is the
first night; Thursday night the second night, and Friday night
the third night.
The three days are counted by beginning with the sunrise that
wraps Passover night, which in 2020 is Thursday April 09; so
then that day is the first day, Friday the second day, and
Saturday the third day, viz: Jesus' resurrection, were it to
take place in 2020, would commence Saturday morning April 11.

The paschal dinner is always eaten at night; viz: after the sun

will commence after sundown on Friday April 19 which means that
Jesus would die on the cross the afternoon of that same day
because his death occurred during the afternoon of the day that
the Jews were preparing for their paschal lamb dinner. (John
18:28, John 19:14)
So if we begin counting the three days that Jesus predicted in
John 2:19 with sunrise April 20; then Easter this year would
take place after sunrise on April 22; in other words: Easter
would take place on a Monday this year instead of Sunday.
The three nights that Jesus predicted in Matt 12:40 are counted
by beginning with the night of the paschal dinner. Seeing as
it's scheduled to begin after sundown April 19, then that night
becomes the first night; and the third night would then begin
after sundown April 21.

I live in the metro area of Portland Oregon USA. The 2020 vernal
equinox occurred at my location on March 19 @ 08:49 PM. Seeing
as how that was before midnight, then in accordance with civil
time, our first day of Spring was March 19.
However, according to Gen 1:4-5, Gen 1:14, Gen 1:16-18, and John
11:9-10; the hours of Day and Night on Earth are distinctly
separate. So then, our actual first day of Spring didn't begin
till sunrise on March 20 while our first night of Spring began
at 08:49 PM March 19.
This issue may seem trivial, but it serves to point out that
because of the differences between civil time and Bible time, it
can be very confusing for some when tracking events in the
Bible; for example the three days and three nights relative to
Jesus' burial and resurrection.

How can it be Wednesday night when Wednesday night would be
over some 12 hours by the end of Wednesday afternoon at sundown?

Will Easter Resurrect Pandemic Church Attendance? Depends on
Your Tradition.
More than half of evangelicals will be back in person, but most
Catholics and black and mainline Protestants are still waiting
to return.
When churches first shut down for the pandemic, many Christians
hoped they would be back together within weeks for Easter. A
year later, the holiday will be the first time more than half of
evangelicals in the US plan to return to worship in person,
according to a Pew Research Center report out Monday.
Even though most churches have reopened, the proclamation that
“He is risen indeed” will be quieter than normal years, with
sparser holiday crowds (and mask requirements muffling their
voices). Among all American Christians, 39 percent say they plan
to celebrate Resurrection Sunday in person, compared to 62
percent during a typical year.
Evangelical Protestants are more likely than any other Christian
group to say they’ll be in church on Easter this year (52%). For
many congregations, last year’s socially distant drive-up
worship will be replaced by traditional sunrise services and egg
hunts.
Easter is typically one of the most-attended weekends on the
church calendar, and this year pastors anticipate that many
Christians will want to get back to the familiar celebrations
within their communities of faith.
Connection Point Church in Jackson, Missouri, which celebrated
virtually last year, is expecting in-person attendance to spike
for Palm Sunday and Easter. “With all the other turmoil that’s
been on with our society, there is a longing [for] not only
normalcy but hope,” pastor Chris Vaught said in an interview
with KFVS.
But certain Christian traditions are holding out a little
longer. Just 36 percent of Catholics and 27 percent of mainline
Protestants say they’ll return for Easter, Pew found. Though
historically black Protestants typically rank among evangelicals
for the highest levels of Easter attendance, fewer than a third
(31%) say they will attend services this year.
One North Carolina preacher shared with local news how his
predominantly African American church, Deeper Life Church
Ministries, will be reopening on Easter for the first time, but
only at a quarter of its 1,000-person capacity. “I’m excited.
For any preacher. Resurrection Sunday is their happy day,” he
said.
Christians’ Easter plans reflect the ongoing gaps in church
attendance. A third of regular churchgoers were back by July
2020, and the rest have incrementally become more comfortable
with attending over the past few months.
The majority of churchgoers say their church has opened, either
with modifications (64%) or as normal (12%). About half say they
require social distancing and masks; 42 percent cap attendance
capacity; and a quarter said that services restrict singing.
But most aren’t yet back into the habit of leaving their couches
to worship together on Sundays. Among Christians who usually
attend church regularly, only 43 percent showed up over past
month, while two-thirds of Christians said they attended an
online service.
Evangelicals were the only group to have a majority (53%)
worship in person, up from 44 percent in July, according to the
new report. Black Protestants—whose communities have been
hard-hit by COVID-19—are half as likely as other Christians to
return to in-person worship. Just 21 percent said they had been
back in March.
Church attendance remains lowest in the West, with California’s
gathering restrictions keeping many congregations from meeting
inside. Just 37 percent of regular churchgoers in the West say
they recently attended religious services, compared to 46
percent in the Northeast, 44 percent in the Midwest, and 42
percent in the South.
