Betrayed for 30 silver coins
The story behind celebrating Good Friday is found in the New Testament of the Bible. According to legends, Jesus Christ’s disciple Judas Iscariot betrayed him. He had Jesus Christ arrested for just 30 silver coins. After this, Roman Governor Pontius Pilate and others accused Jesus of blasphemy and treason.
After this, Jesus Christ was whipped as punishment. A crown of thorns was placed on his head. They were forced to carry heavy crosses. He was taken to the hill of Calvary (Golgotha) and crucified. It is said that Jesus remained hanging on the cross for about 6 hours. Then at 3 pm he breathed his last.
Jesus came back to life on the third day after death
