Holy week refers to the final days of Jesus Christ on earth, from his triumphant entry into Jerusalem, his last supper, death and His crucifixion. Although the specific term holy week is not found in the Bible, the events it represents are clearly recorded in the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. These scriptures describe Jesus’ suffering, death, and victory over death, which are central to Christian faith.
The resurrection of Jesus on the third day, celebrated on Easter Sunday, confirms the biblical importance of this week. While holy week is a traditional church observance rather than a direct biblical command, it is fully based on Scripture. Therefore, it is biblical in content, even if the term itself is not explicitly written in the Bible.
