Why do we have easter eggs?
It is believed that it represented the resurrection of jesus. The hard shell of the egg is the sealed tomb where jesus body was buried and the breaking of the egg represents his resurrection.
Jesus and his disciples were traveling to jerusalem to celebrate a passover. Most people were happy, but this did not include a group of priests because they were jealous of jesus. Judas one of jesus’s disciples went to them and told them that he would betray and leave him. That very next day jesus sat down with his twelve friends for a meal
Hi Jabezv,
ReplyDeleteMy name is Paula McKinney and I'm a college student at the University of South Alabama in Mobile, Alabama. I have always wondered why we had Easter eggs but never knew the meaning behind them. Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work!
