This year's celebration is humorous as it restores Jesus' corpse to life 22 days before he gets crucified during Passover towards the end of April. Oh well; it's the thought that counts rather than the date.
Anyway; we should probably be thinking of Easter now rather than waiting till the last minute.

FAQ: Was Jesus' crucified dead body resurrected in a glorified form, or as it was before the cross?
REPLY: Jesus predicted his body would be restored-- he didn't predict it would be replaced and/or improved. (John 2:18-22)
FAQ: But wasn't his resurrected body able to do things that his normal body never did; like pass thru closed doors and to suddenly appear and disappear?
REPLY: If Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego could walk thru fire in a normal body, then I should think it not all that difficult for Jesus to pass thru walls in a normal body.
And if Philip could be instantly transported in a normal body, they for sure Jesus could too.
The properties of one's body do not determine what God can do with it, or cannot do, viz: when analyzing miracles, I suggest we avoid differentiating between the possible and the impossible. (cf. Luke 1:34-37)
