In the first part of this study, which offers several looks at the form of celebrating the Christian Pascha in the time before the Nicene Council, a concise commentary on selected texts from this period is presented. These texts are: the apocryphal writing Epistula apostolorum, the homily For the Feast of the Holy Pascha (the so­called Pseudo­Hippolytus), and the Syrian writing Didascalia apostolorum. The following chapter deals with problems of the controversy over celebrating Easter which are mentioned by Eusebius of Caesarea in his work Historia ecclesiastica. In the following third part, certain historical and theological aspects are discussed: the mutual relationship between Judaism and Early Christianity; the reinterpretation of the elements of the Jewish Pascha by means of a typological exposition; the emergence and the content of the Feast of Pentecost.
