He is Risen. He is Risen Indeed. Luke 24:34. We celebrate Jesus rising from the dead on Easter. Jesus died on a cross to cover our sins but rose from the dead three days later. The New Testament states that the resurrection of Jesus, which Easter celebrates, is a foundation of the Christian faith.[31] The resurrection established Jesus as the powerful Son of God[32] and is cited as proof that God will judge the world in righteousness.[33][34] God has given Christians "a new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead".[35] Christians, through faith in the working of God are spiritually resurrected with Jesus so that they may walk in a new way of life.[34][36]
Easter is linked to the Passover and Exodus from Egypt recorded in the Old Testament through the Last Supper and crucifixion that preceded the resurrection.[30] According to the New Testament, Jesus gave the Passover meal a new meaning, as he prepared himself and his disciples for his death in the upper room during the Last Supper.[30] He identified the matzah and cup of wine as his body soon to be sacrificed and his blood soon to be shed. Paul states, "Get rid of the old yeast that you may be a new batch without yeast�as you really are. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed";[37] this refers to the Passover requirement to have no yeast in the house and to the allegory of Jesus as the Paschal lamb.[38] Wikipedia
