Orthodox Christians hold that the resurrection of the living Christ is the most important day of the year. In Latin languages eg Spanish it is also called Pascua. Easter is the pagan name used by the germanic tribes for this time of year. Christmas is likewise not "Christ mass" but the Nativity (Navidad), ie the birth of Jesus the Messiah.
