Easter: A Bridge of Renewal and Liberation
Easter is not merely a holiday, but a profound symbolic bridge between the ancient Jewish tradition of liberation and the renewal brought about by the resurrection of Christ. At the heart of this celebration lies the concept of “passing over,” which reflected the Exodus of the Jews from Egyptian slavery, when death did not befall their homes. In the Christian perception, this meaning takes on a new dimension: Jesus Christ appears as the principal hero, liberating from the negative forces of sin and death, and granting believers the assurance of eternal life.
