Symbols of Easter.
Many of the symbols and traditions of Easter
are connected with renewal, birth, good luck and fertility.
The Cross.
Of course as it is a Christian festival one of
the main symbols is a cross, often on a hill. When Jesus was crucified, the
cross became a symbol of suffering. Then with the resurrection, Christians saw
it as a symbol of victory over death.
Palms. In Russia Willow.
The week of Easter begins on Palm Sunday. Why
Palm Sunday? Well, in Roman times it was customary to welcome royalty by waving
palm branches. So, when Jesus arrived in Jerusalem people welcomed him with
palm branches in their hands.
In Russia this day is called Willow Sunday and
people try to decorate their houses with willow branches.
Easter Eggs. The "egg"
and "spring chicks" was a fertility symbol used by many peoples
dating back many thousands of years. The egg as a fertility symbol, was also
important too, and as people started to keep domestic fowl, such as chickens,
the observation of hen's eggs hatching bringing forth yellow coloured chicks
was interpreted into their celebrations as the "sun" being re-born.
Easter eggs are a very old tradition going to a
time before Christianity. Eggs after all are a symbol of spring and new life.
Exchanging and eating Easter eggs is a popular
custom in many countries. In the UK before they were replaced by chocolate
Easter eggs real eggs were used, in most cases, chicken eggs. The eggs were
hard-boiled and dyed in various colors and patterns.
The Easter Bunny.
Rabbits, due to their fecund nature, have
always been a symbol of fertility.The Easter bunny (rabbit) however may
actually be an Easter hare. In the UK children believe that if they are good
the "Easter Bunny " will leave chocolate eggs for them.
An Easter Bonnet .
An Easter Bonnet represents the tail-end of a
tradition of wearing new clothes at Easter, in harmony with the renewal of the
year and the promise of spiritual renewal and redemption. The "Easter
bonnet" was fixed in popular culture by Irving Berlin, whose frame of
reference was the Easter parade in New York City, a festive walkabout that made
its way down Fifth Avenue from St. Patrick's Cathedral.

Who would like to sum it all up?

Let’s work with words. Custom, part, way of
life, important, ordinary, dawn, high point, ancestor, arrival, Hemisphere,
feast. Make up word-combinations with these words. And now let’s turn to
the reading.
Now we’ll read the text about Easter and see if
you were right.
From Scotland to the Channel, Britain
is full of customs and traditions. A lot of them have very long histories. Some
are funny, some are strange. But they're all interesting and are all part of
the British way of life. Easter is the time for holidays, festivals and time
for giving chocolate Easter eggs, the day of parties, and above all a
celebration that Jesus raised from the dead and lives forever. Eggs play an
important part in Easter celebration; they are given to children. The eggs are
either hollow or have a filling, and are usually covered with brightly colored
silver paper. Easter is much more than ordinary holiday. It is the oldest and
the most important Christian Festival, the celebration of the death and coming
Jesus Christ to life again. For Christians, the dawn of Easter Sunday with its
message of new life is the high point of the year. Easter is a feast that is
not always held on the same date each year. Easter Day is celebrated on the
first Sunday following the first full moon. Like most Christian festivals,
Easter has its origins in pre-Christian times. Our ancestors believed that the
sun died in winter and was born anew in spring. The arrival of spring was
celebrated all over the world long before the religious meaning became
associated with Easter. Today, Easter celebrates the rebirth of Christ. Even
though Easter is associated with spring here in England, it is not so in
countries in the Southern Hemisphere. In these countries Easter falls near the
end of autumn. However, through out the world Easter is felt to be a time of
new life and new beginnings.
Let’s turn to our cards. Do you agree or disagree?
