Good Friday in Christianity is its most solemn observance. It is the day commemorating the crucifixion and torture of Jesus Christ. It can also be referred to as Holy Friday or Mourning Friday.
Good Friday occurs on the Friday prior to Easter, which is based upon the first full moon of Spring. Good Friday can occur ion different days as well, depending upon which form of Christianity Orthodox or Western. This is due with which calendar is used: the Julian Calendar (created by Julius Cesar 2000 years ago) versus the Gregorian Calendar instituted in the 1750s (and created by the Roman Catholic Pope; Orthodox Christians do not follow).
Easter and Good Friday usually come a couple of weeks later in the Orthodox faiths when compared to Catholicism and mainline Protestant faiths.
