Sermon Text:     I. Introduction:
a. Every major event is often marked by a celebration
i. Birthdays
ii. Weddings
iii. Holidays
1. This thought pattern came from the Father who after creating, creation sat back and said it is good.
2. The Bible says, when someone comes to the saving knowledge of Christ – angels rejoice.
b. As well there are certain things said in the Word which
are said which pertain to people, places or circumstances
of that day.

i. So as we study we must look at the context
1. Context is defined as: the parts of a written or spoken statement that precede or follow a specific word or passage, usually influencing its meaning or effect.

II. We associate this with the saviors resurrection because he was crucified around that time and then 3 days latter resurrected.
III. So this celebration has evolved for us.
i. In secular world they celebrate fertility this day by gathering eggs from a ficticious bunny.
ii. The Bunny is a symbol of fertility and the eggs are showing it’s abundance of fertility.
b. Bar-Mitzvah
I. Still celebrated to date by jewish people.
