Is Valentine’s Day in the Bible? What the Bible Says About Valentines Day?

Valentine’s Day is not mentioned in the Bible since the holiday itself came many centuries after the Bible was written.

Valentine’s Day has roots in Christian and Roman traditions, however, it is not a religious holiday like Easter or Christmas. There is no specific guidance or teaching on Valentine’s in the Scriptures, however, the bible speaks about expressing love.

For instance, the Bible teaches that we should love one another as we love ourselves (Mark 12:31) and that we should treat others with kindness, respect, and forgiveness (Ephesians 4:32).

Valentine’s Day is traditionally associated with the celebration of romantic love and affection. Valentine’s Day may be associated with romance, but the origin of the holiday isn’t exactly romantic. It originated as a Christian feast day honouring one or two early Christian martyrs named Saint Valentine.

Valentine’s Day is often marked by customs like the exchange of cards, gifts, confectionery and flowers between couples or individuals who are romantically interested in each other.
