"Most Christians are unaware that Easter is a pagan festival surreptitiously merged with Christianity. Easter is not a Christian holiday. The word Easter is not even scriptural; it does not exist in true translations of the bible." Mar 27, 2016
Is the word Easter in the Bible KJV?
"As a matter of fact, the word Easter only appears in the King James Version of English bible translations. It does not exist in any other English bible translation. "Even the King James Version was "forced" to remove it from its revised version, known as the New King James Version."

The word “Easter” is not in the original Scriptures. However, one English translation of the Bible does use the word. The King James Version translates Acts 12:4 like this:
“And when he [Herod Agrippa, the King] had apprehended him [Peter], he put him in prison, and delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to keep him; intending after "Easter" to bring him forth to the people.”
"The book of Acts was originally written in the Greek language by the Christian Gentile and physician Luke. The Greek word that the King James Version translates as “Easter” is actually the word “Pascha” (Hebrew: פסח—Pesach) which means “Passover”—and this is how all modern translations show it. For example, the New King James Version says,
So when he had arrested him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four squads of soldiers to keep him, intending to bring him before the people after Passover.”
"It was during an annual Passover celebration that Jesus was crucified at Jerusalem. Passover is an annual Jewish religious celebration instituted by God (Leviticus 23:5). It dates from the time of Moses when God delivered the Israelites from bondage and spared their first-borns when all first-borns in Egypt died (Exodus 12:11f; Numbers 9:2f; Deuteronomy 16:1f; 2 Kings 23:21f)."

So the word is true was removed in the King James new version and it was forcefully removed as reported. It only appears in the book of Acts once and it only appears in the English translation and not other translations of the King James Bible.
Acts 12:4
King James Version
4 And when he had apprehended him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to keep him; intending after Easter to bring him forth to the people.
Easter is in the William Tyndale Bible
Acts 12:4
4 And when he had caught him he put him in preson and delyvered him to .iiii. quaternios of soudiers to be kepte entendynge after ester to brynge him forth to the people.
The Tyndale Bible generally refers to the body of biblical translations by William Tyndale into Early Modern English, made c. 1522–1536.
So as I understand it they were using the Geneva Bible before the King James version came out. This was the Standard Bible people had.
Acts 12:4
1599 Geneva Bible
4 [a]And when he had caught him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to be kept, intending after the "Passover" to bring him forth to the people.
After notes: The most popular English translation was the Geneva Bible (1557; first published in England in 1576
Who wrote the Geneva Bible?
Among these scholars was William Whittingham, who supervised the translation now known as the Geneva Bible, in collaboration with Myles Coverdale, Christopher Goodman, Anthony Gilby, Thomas Sampson, and William Cole; several of this group later became prominent figures in the Vestments controversy.
Complete Bible published: 1560
Religious affiliation: Protestant
NT published: 1557
From the references in Jeremiah and Ezekiel, we can see that the true Easter has never had any association with Jesus Christ.
After Notes: There are biblical Christians that are displeased when you don't wish to celebrate this holiday and they claim Christ is risen and if we don't then we are denying Christ. He is RISEN regardless. Period! The man on the cross (Thief) was not asked did you celebrate EASTER. It is in the 1611 King James Bible for a reason as described in research herein. King Harold was a pagan and knew this holiday was coming up. They removed it in the NKJV as they report in research..
