Abstract

The Mystery of the Christ’s Passover is a mystery, the source of which is the celebration of two essential facts in history: the Death of Jesus Christ on the Cross and his glorious Resurrection. By presenting the historical path of development of the Passover of the New Testament: from the Jewish Passover (of the Old Testament), then the Judeo-Christian apostolic times, to today's well-known in Orthodox Christianity recognizes the interrelationships and the impact of these events on the current Passover tradition of Eastern Christianity. Evolution of the Passover and Lent was made in close connection with the Eucharist, which is the most important moment of the celebration of the Paschal consciousness of the faithful.
