Part 1: What is the Easter story in Bible

Easter is the most important festival in the Christian calendar. It celebrates the resurrection of Jesus on the third day after his death, executed on the cross. The week had started well for Jesus and his followers, welcomed as celebrities by the people of Jerusalem. There was no Instagram, Facebook or Twitter as Jesus entered the city on a young donkey but palm leaves and cheering were definitely trending on what is now called Palm Sunday, the first day of Holy Week. By Thursday, the atmosphere was changing. Jesus gathered in a room with his friends. Washing their feet, he called on them to love and serve one another. He shared a special meal with his friends at the festival of Passover, telling them that the bread he broke was his body, and the wine they shared was his blood. They were mystified, and he announced that one of his friends would betray him. That night, as Jesus had warned, Judas betrayed him to the authorities. Jesus was humiliated and locked up, Judas committed suicide, unable to cope with everything, and the disciples were left to deal with their loss. Friday brought Jesus’ trial, beatings, humiliation and a failed appeal to the people. Despite the celebrity welcome only five days earlier, the crowd now condemned Jesus to death. After carrying his own cross to the local execution site, Jesus was nailed to that cross, alongside two other men. On the cross, Jesus, with his mother and friends watching, cried out to God, “Father. Why have you forsaken me?” Why had everything come to this? Understanding his role in Salvation, Jesus cried out “It is finished”, his head fell and he died. Taken from the cross, Jesus was wrapped in burial robes and laid to rest in a donated tomb that the soldiers sealed with a massive rock. On Holy Saturday, as the city returned to normal, Jesus’ friends and family mourned, while soldiers guarded the tomb. The next morning, Mary Magdalene who followed Jesus visited the tomb only to find that, despite the presence of the guards, the rock had been moved and Jesus’ body was gone. All that remained were the burial robes. Mary asked a man she took to be a gardener about what had happened to the body. When He spoke to her, she realized He was Jesus, risen from the dead, and ran to tell the disciples. She cried out and told them that she had seen Jesus, and over the next few days many more of the disciples met the risen Jesus and the news of his resurrection spread quickly. Christians all around the world will be celebrating the death and resurrection of Jesus on Easter.

The Easter bunny and Easter eggs story

Although Christians celebrate the death and resurrection of Jesus on Easter, the story of the bunny and chocolates are nowhere to be found in the Bible. In fact, the story of the Easter bunny is still in theory although one of the theories states that it is a symbol of the rabbit stems from pagan tradition. Basically, Eostre a goddess of fertility had the bunny as her animal symbol, and because rabbits are known for energetic breeding, they symbolize fertility. The eggs are also symbolic of new life. As Christianity spread throughout Europe, the celebrations around this theory may have merged with the observance of Christ's resurrection, since they both occurred around the same time. Missionaries were said to blend pagan traditions with Christian holidays to make the transition smoother, so it is possible that the celebrations of Eostre and the resurrection of Christ became one, and this is all according to the History Channel. More evidence of the Easter Bunny dates back to the 1600s, when it was mentioned in some German writings. The rabbit, known as Easter hare was believed to lay eggs for good kids. The Easter chocolate tradition also originated in Germany, wherein the 1800s they made chocolate bunny figurines.
