Subject: Easter in the Bible

Question
Can to give me a reason why the word Easter is in only found in the KJV of the Bible and all other Bibles have the word Passover

Answer
Hi Sydney,

The KJV is incorrect in its translation, the Greek word is Pascha and means passover and refers to the paschal sacrifice.

Here are two interesting articles on the subject:
