A Brief Look at the History of the Easter Bunny
Easter is one of the most important Christian holidays only second to Christmas. Easter is an occasion that Christians have celebrated for hundreds of years. Today it has come to be equated with bunnies and colored eggs, but did you ever wonder why? How does the Easter bunny and eggs commemorate the ascension of Christ into Heaven?
One has to go way back in time to learn how this association was formed. Many religions have long celebrated during the spring since it’s the time when life starts to reappear. Crops are growing, and baby animals are born. Even ancient people with pagan beliefs celebrated the coming of spring. In the Saxon culture, a fertility goddess called Eastre was given her own festival. Rabbits become associated with the celebration prominently thanks to their reputation of being very fertile creatures.
In the 2nd century A.D., there were many missionaries who were trying to convert the pagan peoples to Christianity. In an effort to attract new members to Christianity, the missionaries adopted various customs and festivals into the religion. Since the resurrection of Christ and the celebration of Eastre occured during the same time, the two were combined and the sacred rabbit was included.
Eastre was changed to Easter over the years. The rabbit and the lamb came to symbolize innocent creatures that were sacrificed to commemorate the sacrifice Christ made for man.
You would have to go back to the 1500s in Germany to find the origins of the Easter bunny as we know it today. Children believed that they would receive a basket full of colored eggs from a magical rabbit if they were good during this time. This was a custom which Pennsylvania Dutch immigrants brought to the new world during the 1700s.
As for the eggs that have become an integral part of our Easter festivities, they have also been considered signs of rebirth dating clear back to the early years A.D. In the 600s, the then-Pope Gregory the Great put a ban on eating eggs during the period of Lent which is the 40 days immediately preceding Easter. By the time Easter rolled around, people considered the eggs a special treat since they could eat them again. Although some guidelines of old are no longer followed, we still make use of decorated eggs as part of Easter celebrations. Doc No.azlcssaeh-sdgfhkl
