Good Friday - The crucifixion of the Lord

23.04.2011

On Good Friday The Church commemorates the passions and crucifixion of Jesus Christ. After the Passover the Roman soldiers led by Judah arrested Jesus in the garden of Gethsemane. The passions of Christ begin from that moment. The Armenian Church has sanctified the commemoration of these events through appropriate services. Jesus Christ was delivered by the hands of the guilty and was sentenced to death. The meaning of Holy Friday is concentrated on the story of crucifixion.
