THE CELEBRATION OF
EASTER
Easter is primarily celebrated as a Christian holiday
commemorating the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the
dead, three days after his crucifixion. The resurrection of
Jesus is considered to be the cornerstone of the Christian
faith, as it is believed that through his death and
resurrection, Jesus conquered death and sin, offering
salvation to all who believe in him.
The exact date of Easter varies from year to year
and is determined by the first Sunday after the first
full moon occurring on or after the vernal (spring)
equinox. This usually falls between March 22 and
April 25.
While Easter is primarily a Christian holiday, it also
has roots in pagan celebrations of spring and
fertility. Many of the symbols associated with Easter,
such as eggs and rabbits, were originally pagan
symbols of fertility and new life, which were later
adopted by Christians to represent the resurrection
of Jesus and the new life he offered to believers.
THE SYMBOL OF EGGS
Eggs have attributing different meanings to them. In many cultures, eggs
symbolize new life, fertility, and rebirth, making them a fitting symbol for the
Christian holiday of Easter, which celebrates the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
In the Christian tradition, the egg symbolizes the tomb from which Jesus
Christ emerged after his resurrection. The egg is said to represent the stone
that was rolled away from the tomb, and the new life that emerges from it
symbolizes the new life that Christ brings to his followers.
In many cultures, eggs are also associated with the arrival
of spring, which is celebrated at the same time as Easter in
the Northern Hemisphere. The return of birds to their nests
and the hatching of new chicks from eggs are seen as
signs of new life and renewal, which are also associated
with the themes of Easter.
Eggs are also commonly used in Easter egg hunts and
other Easter activities, which are popular traditions in many
parts of the world. In these activities, brightly colored eggs
are hidden for children to find, and they are often filled with
treats and candies as a symbol of the joy and celebration of
Easter.
Overall, eggs have become an important symbol of Easter,
representing new life, fertility, rebirth, and the resurrection
of Jesus Christ.
