"Easter : the holiest day of the Christmas calendar, a celebration of Jesus Christ resurrection from the dead. So what does this miracle have to do with a bunny delivering painted eggs? The answer lies in a hundred generations of rituals and custom.
A.________________________
According to the Gospels of the New Testament, Jesus Christ and his apostles entered Jerusalem to observe Passover, the Jewish holy season that celebrates the Hebrews' release from slavery. After the Passover supper, Jesus was arrested and, on what is now called Good Friday, he was crucified.
Two days later, he rose from the dead. Those of Jewish origins were the first to celebrate the resurrection, likely as a new fast of the Passover festival.
B.________________________
In fact, the Easter celebration was called PASCHA. It's derived from the world PESACH, the Jewish translation for Passover.
C._______________________
Originally Easter was celebrated two days after Passover, so it fell on any day of the week but Easter Wednesday just didn't feel right. In 325 AD, the Roman emperor Constantin and the Council of Nicaea ruled that Easter must fall only on a Sunday, the day when Christ rose. Easter Sunday would be the first Sunday to follow the full moon after the spring equinox. They would occur anywhere between March 22 and April 25.
D.______________________
Around the same time, Christians began one of the first recorded rituals of the modern history celebrations: the lighting of the Paschal candle. Its flame is a reminder of Jesus Christ resurrection: light out of darkness.
E. ______________________
As Christianity spread throughout Europe, different pagan customs blended into the holidays.
In fact, the actual word Easter may have come from Estra, the goddess of spring and fertility, which brings us to the Easter egg. Eggs have been a mythological symbol of birth for thousands of years. Christians adopted the egg as an Easter custom sometime around the 13th century. The yoke inside the shell represented Christ emergence from the tomb. Eggs were painted red to represent the blood Christ shed on the cross.




F._________________________
The colorful Easter egg soon hatched its own traditions. A popular one was egg rolling. In 1876, Congress prohibited kids from playing on the Capitol grounds, so President Rutherford B. Haynes opened the White House lawn to the little rollers. After that, the White House Easter roll became a tradition. So when did the Easter bunny appear to the scene?
G._________________________
The fur little rabbit had long been a symbol in European pagan celebrations. Beginning around the 16th century, parents told children that if they behaved on the eve of Easter, the "Oschter Haws" would come and lay colorful Easter eggs. Children built nests in their homes to entice the rabbit to visit and so begin the customs of the Easter egg hunt and the Easter basket.
H. ________________________
To help fill out those baskets, 19th century European chocolatiers began making egg-shaped chocolates. The sweet trend quickly spread throughout the world. Today billions of dollars are spent each year on Easter candy.
I. _______________________
Easter is a joyful day when Christians celebrate the resurrection. For 2,000 years customs have been added, some spiritual and some fun. But Easter is also the time for families to gather and welcome spring, when new life emerges after the death of winter."
