An alternative spelling and form of antipasch; a day of commemoration or celebration in certain Christian traditions following Easter, sometimes called 'Low Sunday' or the Sunday after Easter.
From anti- (after/opposite) + pascha (Greek for Passover/Easter, from Hebrew pesach). In some Eastern Christian traditions, antipascha specifically refers to the Sunday following Pascha/Easter Sunday.
In Eastern Orthodox Christianity, Antipascha Sunday is still celebrated with specific hymns and traditions, making this ancient term very much alive in living religious practice, not just historical vocabulary.
