Easter

 The only reason the word Easter is in the New Testament, is because Herod was a pagan. He called himself a convert to Judaism, but still followed his Edomite gods. In context, Peter was thrown into prison, the Feast of Unleavened Bread had already begun, this means that Passover was already over. Herod wanted to wait until his feast to Ishtar was finished, to deal with Peter.

Now about that time Herod the king stretched forth his hands to vex certain of the church. And he killed James the brother of John with the sword. And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to take Peter also.

*** (Then were the days of unleavened bread.)*** 

And when he had apprehended him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to keep him; intending after Easter to bring him forth to the people. Peter therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was made without ceasing of the church unto God for him. 

Act 12:1-5
