I was thinking today about the meaning of "karfreitag" (german) or "good friday" (english). I know the meaning of the day but I was stuck in finding out why in english it is called "good friday".
Wiki says: "Good Friday, also called Holy Friday or Great Friday, is the Friday preceding Easter Sunday. It commemorates the crucifixion and death of Jesus at Calvary."
Ok, ok, got it...but why GOOD friday? This friday was not really a good friday for Jesus some 1975 years ago.
