Christians believe on this day the Son of GOD died & he resurrected after three days on Easter Sunday. Good Friday’s other names are Black Friday, or holy Friday & even Easter Friday. The “Good Friday” name is popular among the Western European and North American Christians. The Eastern Orthodox Christians call it “Great and Holy Friday”. Latin nations call it “Holy Friday”, Slavic people call it “Great Friday”, the German peoples call it “Friday of Mourning” and Norway people call it “Long Friday”.

“Good Friday” name may look odd for a day observed for a terrible crucifixion, but Jesus followers believe:

  • “Good” is an adjective which is an Old English synonym for “holy.”
  • “Good” is a corruption of the word “God,” and the name is derived from ‘God’s Friday’.
  • “Good” marks Christ’s victory over sin, death, and the devil. 

Why Was Jesus Christ Crucified?

However, there are different stories regarding the crucifixion of Jesus Christ but the most practical one is revealed here. We all know Jesus was starting to become popular amongst people because of some of his supernatural powers which made him rise from the crowd. And witnessing his rise Jewish religious leaders weren’t comfortable at all as it was killing their source of income and popularity. 

The Roman empire had no interest in killing or executing Jesus whatsoever. However, it was presented in such a way before the court of law that they sentenced him to death. Trumped up charges of blasphemy (act of showing or insulting the contempt for God) were put against him as charges of sedition and he was found guilty. And an emperor would sentence the harshest punishment against charges of sedition. And therefore he sentenced him for crucifixion.

What Does the Bible Say About Good Friday 2024?

The Bible specifically doesn’t say anything about Good Friday, but it definitely talks about the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. There is a mention of such an event in the Holy bible in certain chapters which are as follows

  • Matthew Chapter 27:1 & 2
  • Mark Chapter 10:34
  • Matthew Chapter 12:40
  • Romans chapter 5:6 & 7

Mark Chapter 9: For teaching his disciples and said to them, “the son of man is being betrayed into the hands of men, and they will kill him. And after he is killed. He will rise on the third day.
