Easter is a big part of Christian and most of the world’s
culture. Its Christian significance comes from the day Jesus rose from the
dead. But where does the rest of the celebration fit in? What does a bunny and
colored eggs have to do with Jesus? Well, in most cultures the egg represents
re-birth and new life (obvious connection is obvious), but it meant this long
before Jesus was born on earth. The Nowruz and the Iranians started painting
eggs way before Jesus was born. Easter eggs (as previously mentioned) take the
eggs symbolism of re-birth and apply it to Jesus.
