Description
Christian Easter Crossword Puzzle Packet
Nothing is more worthy of studying than the life of our Savior, Jesus Christ! Use this Christian Easter worksheet packet to take a deep dive into Jesus’ last week on earth, and His death, burial, and resurrection.
Use this crossword packet to look deeply at the verses in the Book of Matthew, as we understand and think on the events of Jesus’ death. These crosswords will definitely require a Bible and a bit of time to complete.
After reading the Bible verses that are included at the top of each puzzle, start to fill in the missing blanks and answer the questions in the puzzle clues. I created each of these puzzles using the Book of Matthew in the English Standard Version. Certainly you can use any version of the Bible, but you might have to tweak the words a bit to get the “correct” answer according to the puzzle.
Each puzzle includes a variety of questions regarding the Scripture and fill-in-the-blank style answers.
I intentionally did not include a word bank, as to encourage looking up each of the Scripture references that are provided with each clue. You will see the verse denoted as (V. _) to indicate the reference.
This packet includes 5 different crossword puzzles:
- The Triumphal Entry of Jesus – Matthew 21:1-11
- The Passover and The Lord’s Supper – Matthew 26:17-35
- Jesus Prays in Gethsemane and His Arrest – Matthew 26:36-56
- The Crucifixion and Burial of Jesus Christ – Matthew 27:27-61
- The Resurrection of Jesus Christ! – Matthew 28
- An answer key for each puzzle
Use these with a variety of ages, from 2nd grade through high school or even adult!
