Easter season is here and the holy week is mid-way.This tradition marks the critical path in Jesus Christ,the messiah's minitry and ultimately Christianity.Christ entered Jerusalem and crowds gathered,lay their palms to welcome him.A week later, the same Jesus they welcomed they now bayed for his blood.With the season, comes two concepts bunny and egg.(dont mention santa claus of xmas).
Like Santa, the bunny represented the goddess of fertility and easter then was a pagan celebration of this goddess.The egg came as a result of a tradition in England, Germany and some other countries, children rolled eggs down hills on Easter morning, a game which connected to the rolling away of the rock from Jesus Christ's tomb when he was resurrected. British settlers brought this custom to the Africa.So what does easter really mean to you?
