Why do we fast one week before, and another week after the 40 day fasting?
We add one week to the 40 days of fast before the 40 days as a preparatory fast, and we fast an additional one week after the 40 days to make special observation of the suffering of Jesus Christ on the cross. So, we fast a total of 55 days during the Great Lent.
