| Summary: | The day of the celebration of Easter had been a hotly debated topic among the churches since the second century. During the third century, computational systems arise to determine the day of celebration for the future and to break away from the variety of Jewish calculations. Emperor Constantine, deeply desirous of a single unanimous church, also for political reasons, is convinced that correct worship also favors the Empire. He convenes the Council of Nicaea (325) to resolve the dispute between Alexander of Alexandria and Arius, but also on the celebration of Easter on a single date among all Christians. Constantine transforms an internal question of the churches into a problem of religious and social policy of primary importance. During the fourth and fifth centuries, a convergence on a single date is slowly established: the Sunday following the full moon after the vernal equinox. However, difficulties remain depending on the calculation system and on the different day of the equinox. |
