This year, Orthodox and Catholic Christians will celebrate the Resurrection of Christ together. On the same date, the entire Christian world will turn its gaze to the empty tomb and will try, to the best of its ability, to empathize with the amazement of the myrrh-bearing women who were the first to see it. Although Catholics celebrate this day with appropriate solemnity, they attach more importance to the Nativity of Christ, while for the Orthodox Church, the "holiday of holidays" is precisely Easter.
"As Christians, we do not believe that it is about metaphors and symbols,". "Christmas is not about the birth of a new beginning, which we all welcome and know from our life experience. In the same way, Resurrection is not about the constant cycle of life, in which every death is followed by resurrection and a new life, which, however, sinks into death again, only to be reborn again - no, this reading of Christian holidays is rooted in our limited human horizon. And the Church calls us to look beyond it and understand that God does all this - He is born as a man, lives as a man and is resurrected, as no man has done up to this point, in order to solve humanity's great problem with death", says Dr. Zlatina Karavalcheva and continues:
