Holy Wednesday marks the fourth day of the celebration of Holy Week - which follows the journey of Jesus Christ through Jerusalem. According to the Gospels, Jesus entered Jerusalem on Palm Sunday and predicted his own death and second coming on Holy Tuesday. This was followed by Judas’ betrayal that took place on Spy Wednesday and the Last Supper, where Jesus broke bread with his disciples. This led to the mourning day of Good Friday - where Jesus Christ laid his life to atone for the sins of humanity and his burial on Holy Saturday. This week's events finally mark the end of the 40-day lent fast that many Christians observe, and the Resurrection of Jesus Christ is celebrated at the end of the Holy Week - with Easter 2023 (April 9).
