From 28 March to 25 April, in the National Library of Belarus (2nd floor, circular hall) runs an exhibition “The Greatest Sacred Holiday” timed to the Easter Holidays.
The church year is a sequence of black-letter days and holidays. On weekdays a man has to labor, while on holidays a believer enjoys freedom and rises over daily routine to touch the spiritual world.
Easter Day is the greatest Orthodox holiday that stands apart from other holidays as the supreme demonstration of Christ’s omnipotence, the statement of belief and the mortgage of our revival. The Easter celebrations make the semantic center of not only church ceremonialism, but also all spiritual life of the Christian.
The National Library of Belarus congratulates all believers on the Easter Day and offers to visitors and readers a book-illustrative exhibition “The Greatest Sacred Holiday”.
The most part of the exposition is books on the history of the Russian Orthodox Church, encyclopedias of Orthodox holidays, editions about the most known Orthodox sacred places and objects (churches and temples, cloisters, wonder-working icons, sacred relics and streams) in Belarus and abroad, and books about ritual cuisine.
