Excerpt from Mr. Du Preez:
(quote)
“In view of this pragmatic, yet principle-based attitude, let’s ponder the possible deeper significance of the hot cross bun, and the Easter egg, while acknowledging the many different ways in which Easter is observed among Christians.” And Mr. Du Preez goes on (his quote) “According to Wikipedia, the hot cross bun is traditionally eaten on Good Friday, “with the cross standing as a symbol of the Crucifixion.” “Easter eggs symbolize the empty tomb of Jesus: though an egg appears to be like the stone of a tomb, a bird hatches from it with life; similarly the Easter egg, for Christians, is a reminder that Jesus rose from the grave, and that those who believe will also experience eternal life.”” SIGNS OF THE TIMES, SOUTH AFRICA, Author: RON DU PREEZ, 2014
