banned for many centuries, and churches were once traditionally closed on Good Friday in mourning.
Today, the clergy and altar wear black. Darkness falls upon Christianity on Good Friday, just as it fell across Calvary.
Christian observance of Lent, Good Friday, and Easter is perhaps a participation in the suffering and love ideas imputed by the cricifixion. Perhaps the self-imposed hardships are an effort to alleviate the guilt of responsibility for death—an idea elaborated upon by the Christian Fathers in the concept that Christ died to absolve man's sins.
Western Christian laymen, in practice, do not give Eastertide the central position in the annual cycle of worship that the Greek and Russian Orthodox churches do. In the East, fasting is more strict and prolonged, with heavy emphasis upon penance, climaxed by a family feast on Easter.
In short, Lent is a time of penance; Good Friday—God's Friday—is the climactic day of human fault; and Easter is the renewal of hope and faith.
