Good Friday and Christ’s Crucifixion: Why 'Good Friday'?

Christ died at the cross of calvary today the question is will his death be linked to the wikckedness of the Jews.where they mean?was Judas a bad man betraying him?who should be blamed or praised for his death.

One of the most prominent observances of the Christian faith, Good Friday is here. But the day is often observed collectively by many people around the world, most often, irrespective of what religion they belong to. It is a public holiday in much of the Europe, South America and Asia including India.
It is the day observed in commemoration of Jesus Christ's crucifixion, which plays an important part in the Christian faith. It is often thought to be the most important event in Christianity, as it represents the sacrifices and suffering in Jesus' life. The crucifixion occurred as a culmination of a number of events in the Holy Week, including the triumphal entry of Jesus to Jerusalem riding a donkey on Palm Sunday and the washing of the disciples' feet and the last supper observed on Maundy Thursday.

Why 'Good Friday'?

The term 'Good Friday' may sound strange to many people considering what had actually happened on that day. Many wouldn't believe that the day Jesus was crucified should be called 'Good'. Although it is thought that Good Friday stems from the words "God's Friday", while others think that the word 'good' would simply be interpreted as something that is "observed as holy".

Different Names
Many Orthodox Christians call the day 'Great Friday'. The day is sometimes also known as Black Friday or Sorrowful Friday, as well as Long Friday.

OBOREVWORI: How Not To Glorify A 'One Chance' Governor - By Zik Gbemre

It is appalling how, in desperation to sustain its thieving hegemony over the Delta State Government since 1999, the Delta PDP had the audacity to impose the weakest, most uninformed contender, a local champion, as Governor over a state replete with accomplished men and women of immense capacity.
