Good Friday (western)
Good Friday is the Friday before Easter Monday, which is calculated differently in Eastern Christianity and Western Christianity. In Western Christianity, Easter falls on the first Sunday following the Paschal Full Moon (usually the first full moon of spring).
Jesus Christ, having been arrested in the Garden of Gethsemane by the Temple Guards through the guidance of Judas Iscariot, is brought to the house of Annas, who is father-in-law of the current high priest, Caiaphas. There he is interrogated with little result, and sent bound to Caiaphas the high priest, where the Sanhedrin had assembled (John 18:1-24)
