The meaning of the word means "Christ's Mass (Christ's mass)", that is, "a dinner for Jesus." This ceremony from the "New Testament" and "The Last Supper." The "Mass of Christ (Christ's mass)" The word is Greek and Latin put together, because Christ came from Greek Χριστός, meaning originally refers only to the Jews, "anointed", derived for the Messiah; the mass from the Latin language missa, intended for the closing (dismissal), be extended for the Christian Church Thanksgiving gathering.

圣诞节的由来 教会开始并无圣诞节，约在耶稣升天后百余年内才有。据说：第一个圣诞节是在公元138年，由罗马主教圣克里门倡议举行。而教会史载第一个圣诞节则在公元336年。由于圣经未明记耶稣生于何时，故各地圣诞节日期各异。直到公元440年，才由罗马教廷定12月25日为圣诞节。公元1607年，世界各地教会领袖在伯利恒聚会，进一步予以确定，从此世界大多数的基督徒均以12月25日为圣诞节。十九世纪，圣诞卡的流行、圣诞老人的出现，圣诞节也开始流行起来了。 春节由来 “年”的甲骨文写法为上面部分为“禾”字，下面部分为“人”字。金文的“年”字也与甲骨文相同也从禾、从人。小篆的“年”写作“上禾下千”，《说文解字·禾部》：“年，谷熟也。从禾，从千声。”小篆将“人”字讹变为“千”了，因而许慎用了此说，而“千”字本为有饰的人，此解也并不矛盾。“禾”是谷物的总称，不能错解仅为“小麦”。年成的好坏，主要由“禾”的生长和收成情况来决定，而现在已发掘出来的甲骨文中的“禾”字，几乎都是看上去沉甸甸地被压弯了腰，可见它象征着取得谷物生产的大丰收。“年”字下面的“人”字又作何解释呢？从甲骨文看，“年”字好象是人头上顶着沉重的谷物。 春节原名“元旦”，隋代杜台卿在《五烛宝典》中说：“正月为端月，其一日为元日，亦云正朝，亦云元朔。”“元”的本意为“头”，后引申为“开始”，因为这一天是一年的头一天，春季的头一天，正月的头一天，所以称为“三元”；因为这一天还是岁之朝，月之朝，日之朝，所以又称“三朝”；又因为它是第一个朔日，所以又称“元朔”。
