The word\u00a0Easter<\/i>\u00a0appears one time in the Bible (KJV). This word should not be in the Bible (KJV). It is a mistranslation. It should have been translated\u00a0Passover\u00a0<\/i>instead of\u00a0Easter.<\/i><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Strong\u2019s number for Passover is #G3957 and it appears 28 times in the New Testament. Every time Strong\u2019s number #G3957 is used, it is translated as Passover,<\/i> except one time. That one exception is found in Act. 12:4, when it is translated Easter.<\/i> Perhaps the translator was a little bias. The one time that Strong\u2019s #G3957 is translated as Easter;<\/i> it is upper case. The other 27 times when it is translated as Passover,<\/i> it is always lower-case, except one time (Luk. 22:1).<\/p>\n
