However, this event does not mark the end of the Easter season but rather its beginning.

Let\u2019s explore these together!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Similarly, the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.holyart.com\/blog\/easter\/how-is-easter-calculated\/\">Jewish Passover<\/a><\/strong>, P\u00e8sach or Pesah, did not represent the conclusion of the celebration that commemorated the exodus of the Chosen People from Egypt. The Jews celebrated the Passover meal on the night between the 14th and 15th of the month of Nisan, and from there began the seven days of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, an ancient propitiatory festival for the harvest, during which barley flour cakes without yeast were prepared.<\/p>\n<p>For Christians, the importance of the days following <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.holyart.com\/special-occasions\/easter-and-lent\">Easter<\/a><\/strong>, the Easter Octave, arises from the appearance of Jesus <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.holyart.com\/special-occasions\/easter-nativity\/easter-nativity-scene-crucifixion-resurrection-9-cm-35x50x40-cm-module-6\">eight days after the Resurrection<\/a><\/strong>, as recounted in the Gospel of John 20:26-29:<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;26 A week later his disciples were in the house again, and Thomas was with them. Though the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, \u201cPeace be with you!\u201d 27 Then he said to Thomas, \u201cPut your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe.\u201d 28 Thomas said to him, \u201cMy Lord and my God!\u201d 29 Then Jesus told him, \u201cBecause you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.\u201d&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>This explains why, according to tradition, Sunday in Albis is also known as Thomas Sunday, referring to <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.holyart.com\/blog\/saints-and-blessed\/saint-thomas-the-doubting-apostle\/\">the doubting apostle.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"link-article\">\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-6063 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.holyart.it\/com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/03\/st-thomas.jpg\" alt=\"Saint Thomas\" width=\"150\" height=\"100\" data-kale-share-title=\"Sunday in Albis: what is commemorated and what is the religious significance of this day\" data-kale-share-url=\"https:\/\/blog.holyart.it\/com\/?p=6051\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"leggi-anche\">Read more:<\/div>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.holyart.com\/blog\/saints-and-blessed\/saint-thomas-the-doubting-apostle\/\">Saint Thomas, the Doubting Apostle<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\nA devoted follower of Jesus and a great evangelist, often remembered more for his skepticism than his immense and solid faith.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2>What does Sunday in Albis mean?<\/h2>\n<p>Sunday in Albis is also known as the Second Sunday of Easter; Quasimodo Sunday, or Quasimodogeniti (in the Lutheran Church), from the beginning of the Antiphon that opens the religious service (Quasi modo g\u00e9niti inf\u00e1ntes, ration\u00e1bile, sine dolo lac concup\u00edscite, ut in eo cresc\u00e1tis in sal\u00fatem, allel\u00fagia. &#8220;Like newborn babies, crave pure spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up in your salvation. Alleluia&#8221;); Antipascha Sunday (in Eastern Churches); Dominica de Thomas or Thomas Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>Sunday in Albis, or White Sunday, is the more &#8220;official&#8221; term, from the Latin Dominica in albis. The name given to Sunday in Albis derives from the custom of the early Christian Church to administer <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.holyart.com\/special-occasions\/easter-nativity\/easter-nativity-scene-baptism-wedding-at-cana-9-cm-35x60x40-cm-module-2\">Baptism<\/a> <\/strong>to new believers on the night of Easter, during the Easter Vigil. The full expression would actually be Dominica in albis vestibus depositis, the Sunday on which the white garments are laid aside, referring to the white robes worn by the newly baptised throughout the week following Easter, and removed, indeed, the Sunday after Easter.<\/p>\n<div class=\"link-product\">\n<div class=\"blocco-immagine\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-6066 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.holyart.it\/com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/03\/setting-for-easter-creche-of-9-cm-baptism-and-wedding-in-cana-35x60x40-cm-module-2.jpg\" alt=\"setting for easter creche, baptism\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" data-kale-share-title=\"Sunday in Albis: what is commemorated and what is the religious significance of this day\" data-kale-share-url=\"https:\/\/blog.holyart.it\/com\/?p=6051\" \/><\/div>\n<div class=\"blocco-contenuto\">\n<div class=\"blocco-acquista\">Buy Now:<\/div>\n<div class=\"blocco-titolo\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.holyart.com\/special-occasions\/easter-nativity\/easter-nativity-scene-baptism-wedding-at-cana-9-cm-35x60x40-cm-module-2\">Setting for Easter Creche, Baptism and wedding in Cana<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"blocco-descrizione\">35x60x40 cm, MODULE 2.

It was, in fact, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.holyart.com\/special-occasions\/john-paul-ii?page=1\">Pope John Paul II<\/a><\/strong> who gave it this title only in 2000, on the occasion of the canonisation of <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.holyart.com\/religious-items\/greeting-cards-and-holy-cards\/holy-cards\/holy-card-saint-faustina-kowalska-prayer-ita-10x5-cm\">Saint Faustina Kowalska<\/a><\/strong>, dedicating this day to the devotion of Divine Mercy. With this new designation, the pope also granted special indulgences on this date.<\/p>\n<p>In one of her visions, Sister Faustina saw <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.holyart.com\/religious-items\/statues\/resin-and-pvc-statues\/statue-of-jesus-the-compassionate-30-5-cm-in-resin.\">Jesus dressed in white<\/a><\/strong>, with one hand raised in blessing and the other resting on His chest, indicating a wound from which two rays of shining light emerged, one white, the other red, representing respectively the Water that justifies souls and His Blood, which is life. It was Jesus who asked the saint to have an image of Him created in this form and to spread its devotion with a celebration that would take place on the first Sunday after Easter, when the image was to be blessed by the pope. Thus was born the Feast of Divine Mercy.<\/p>\n<div class=\"link-product\">\n<div class=\"blocco-immagine\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-6875 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.holyart.it\/couk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2025\/03\/statue-of-jesus-the-compassionate-30-5-cm-in-resin.jpg\" alt=\"statue of jesus the compassionate\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" data-kale-share-title=\"Sunday in Albis: what is commemorated and what is the religious significance of this day\" data-kale-share-url=\"https:\/\/blog.holyart.it\/couk\/?p=6857\" \/><\/div>\n<div class=\"blocco-contenuto\">\n<div class=\"blocco-acquista\">Buy Now:<\/div>\n<div class=\"blocco-titolo\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.holyart.com\/religious-items\/statues\/resin-and-pvc-statues\/statue-of-jesus-the-compassionate-30-5-cm-in-resin.\">Statue of Jesus the Compassionate<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"blocco-descrizione\">Small sized (30,5 cm), in resin, representing Jesus the Compassionate.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2>What does Monday in Albis mean?<\/h2>\n<p>As for the term Monday in Albis, sometimes attributed to Easter Monday, it actually originates from a series of interpretative errors that have been perpetuated over the centuries, up to the present day.<\/p>\n<p>The Monday following Easter, or the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.holyart.com\/blog\/easter\/easter-monday-or-angel-monday-lets-find-out-why-they-are-called-so\/\">Monday of the Angel<\/a><\/strong>, recalls the visit of Mary, the mother of Jesus, and Mary Magdalene to Jesus&#8217; tomb. The two women found it open and empty and encountered an <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.holyart.com\/religious-items\/angels?page=1\">Angel<\/a> <\/strong>who told them that Jesus had risen to heaven and that they should inform the Apostles. This occurred the day after Passover, but not the Easter we celebrate on Sunday; rather, the Jewish Passover, which fell on a Saturday. Thus, the meeting of the two pious women with the Angel would have occurred on a Sunday, not on a Monday, and this is the first error.<\/p>\n<div class=\"link-article\">\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-6072 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.holyart.it\/com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/03\/Easter-Monday-or-Angel-Monday.jpg\" alt=\"Easter Monday or Angel Monday\" width=\"150\" height=\"100\" data-kale-share-title=\"Sunday in Albis: what is commemorated and what is the religious significance of this day\" data-kale-share-url=\"https:\/\/blog.holyart.it\/com\/?p=6051\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"leggi-anche\">Read more:<\/div>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.holyart.com\/blog\/easter\/easter-monday-or-angel-monday-lets-find-out-why-they-are-called-so\/\">Easter Monday or Angel Monday?

You will find out in this article.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Moreover, as we have seen, Sunday in Albis takes its name from the white garments worn by the newly baptised in the week following Easter, symbolising the purity from sin regained after <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.holyart.com\/special-occasions\/easter-nativity\/scene-of-the-baptism-of-jesus-with-john-the-baptist-9-cm\">Baptism<\/a><\/strong>. No sacred text, however, speaks of Monday in Albis, but it is likely that popular tradition sought to define Monday in Albis as the first day the white garments were worn.<\/p>\n<p>In any case, Easter Monday is not among the feast days of obligation, but it is a public holiday in the civil calendar, a sort of extension of Easter, an occasion for barbecues, outings, and popular festivities.<\/p>\n<div class=\"link-product\">\n<div class=\"blocco-immagine\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-6880 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.holyart.it\/couk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2025\/03\/scene-of-the-baptism-of-jesus-with-john-the-baptist-9-cm.jpg\" alt=\"Scene of the baptism of jesus\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" data-kale-share-title=\"Sunday in Albis: what is commemorated and what is the religious significance of this day\" data-kale-share-url=\"https:\/\/blog.holyart.it\/couk\/?p=6857\" \/><\/div>\n<div class=\"blocco-contenuto\">\n<div class=\"blocco-acquista\">Buy Now:<\/div>\n<div class=\"blocco-titolo\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.holyart.com\/special-occasions\/easter-nativity\/scene-of-the-baptism-of-jesus-with-john-the-baptist-9-cm\">Scene of the baptism of Jesus with John the Baptist<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"blocco-descrizione\">The statues are made of resin, 10 cm tall, perfect for your Easter Creche.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The celebration of Sunday in Albis combines ancient rites and popular traditions.
