What is Maundy Thursday? Answer: The Thursday before Easter is known as either Maundy Thursday, or Holy Thursday. Maundy is derived from the Latin word for “command,” and refers to Jesus’ commandment to the disciples to “Love one another as I have loved you.”
Maundy Thursday is the title given to the last Thursday before Paschal (Easter), when practicing Christians hold that that their Savior, Jesus Christ washed the feet of his disciples, in an act of humility, at the occasion of ‘The Last Supper,’ when he (Jesus) gave his commandments in Latin (‘mandatum’, from which ‘Maundy’ is derived demonstrating us all see deep meaning Maundy” comes from the Latin word mandatum, or commandment, reflecting Jesus’ words “I give you a new commandment.”

Sundown on Holy Thursday to sundown on Easter Sunday is considered the most solemn part of the liturgical year. This three-day period is referred to as the Easter Triduum, also known as the Sacred Triduum, or Paschal Triduum.
The Paschal Triduum or Easter Triduum (Latin: Triduum Paschale), Holy Triduum (Latin: Triduum Sacrum), or the Three Days, is the period of three days that begins with the liturgy on the evening of Maundy Thursday, reaches its high point in the Easter Vigil, and closes with evening prayer on Easter Sunday.
