在我宿霧遊學期間
我們遇到神聖週的宗教國定假日
有了四天連假
During my study tour in CEBU, we got 4 days holiday since it's holy week - national religion holidays.
 
因為菲律賓是世界第三大天主教國家
Because  Philippines is the world's top 3 Catholic country.
 
在復活節前一週每天都是神聖日
The week before Easter Sunday,each day is holy day!
 
神聖週的週四和週五變成了國定假日
Thursday and Friday in holy week become national holidays.
 
這些假日沒有特定日期
每年都不同
There are no specific dates for this holiday.These holidays are changed every year.
 
 
在今年 第一天是2018/03/29授命星期四
(又稱濯足節 神聖星期四)
In this year, the first day of holy holiday is Maundy Thursday at 2018/03/29.
 
是紀念最後的晚餐的日子
It's the day to commemorate " Last Supper ".
 
在最後的晚餐
耶穌親自為他的門徒洗腳(滌足)
告訴他們即使他不在了也要為彼此洗腳
In " Last Supper " , Jesus Christ  washed his disciples's feet in person, and told them to do the same thing for each other even he left.
 
猶太人的習俗是僕人為主人洗腳
耶穌願為門徒洗腳是代表願為他們奉獻
也希望他們為彼此奉獻
In Jewish costoms ,servants wash their hosts's feet. In this case,Jesus's cleansing means willing to offer,and hope his disciples to give everything for each other.
 
也就是滌足禮(洗足儀式)
所以這一天又叫做滌足節
It is called "Maundy".That's why the day is called  Maundy Thursday.
 
 

 
2018/03/30是神聖週五
(也是黑色星期五)
2018/03/30 is "Good Friday".
(also called "Holy Friday" , "Great Friday" and "Black Friday")
 
就是耶穌受難日-被釘上十字架的那一天
It's "The Passion of the Christ" that Jesus Christ was tacked on the cross.
 
我們看到很多人推著耶穌神像在街上遊行
We saw many people pushing  cart with image of Jesus and  have it procession on road.
 
經過的教堂人也超多
There were many people in  churches that we passed by .
 
很多人會在這天吃十字包
Many people eat  Hot cross bun at this day.
 
 
另外司機介紹說偏遠的地方
甚至有人會重複釘上十字架的酷刑
向耶穌致敬
大約像台灣乩童的儀式吧><
但個人覺得若到這麼極端很像邪教阿~
(原諒我 這一段不敢翻英文怕被揍)
 
因為看到遊行時來不及拍照 
抓了網路上差不多的圖
I show the Internet picture because I had no time to take a photo at that time.
 
 
 
接下來是聖週六或復活節前夕
The next day is "Holy Saturday" or " Easter Eve ".
 
它又稱黑色星期六 
因為它是沒有神的一天
It's also called "Black Saturday" , because it's the day without God.
 
最後一天就是復活節
Then,the final day is "Easter Sunday".
 
Easter這個字來自北歐的春之女神Idum
The word "Easter" comes from Nordic Spring Goddess "Eostre".
 
大家知道的復活節彩蛋的習俗
卻和基督教無關
Everyone knows the Easter customs of  Easter Egg, but it's nothing to do with  Christian.
 
因為復活節是定在
每年春分月圓後的第一個週日
春回大地 萬物復甦的意思
Because Easter Sunday is booked at the first Sunday while the spring equinox after full moon, it symbolizes "spring" and "rebirth".
 
也是代表著恢復生機
所以才有吃復活節彩蛋的習俗
Eggs also symbolize "recovery".That's why we eat Easter Egg at Easter Sunday.
 
 
 
PS.
我查了很多資料也請教不少人
也很努力把它翻成英文
希望沒有錯XD
PS.
I searched much information and picked up many people's brain to write the article, and try hard to translate them in English.I hope there is no mistake in my writing.
