Kohdetiedot
A festival celebrated on January 6 that is one of the three main and oldest festivals of the Christian Church (the other two being Christmas and Easter). The festival originated in the East where it originally celebrated both the birth and baptism of Jesus Christ. Since the 4th century when December 25 became the date of Christmas, the festival in the East has remained the celebration of the manifestation of Christ's divinity at his baptism. The festival spread to the West in the 4th century where it became more associated with visit of the Magi to the infant Christ and specifically the manifestation of Christ to the Gentiles in the form of the Magi. The festival also commemorates Christ's first miracle at Cana in Galilee. Gifts are exchanged on Epiphany instead of Christmas in some countries. The eve of Epiphany is called Twelfth Night in the West.
