The
Symbols Of Easter
by
Pastor Charlie Schultz
Everyone
is familiar with the meaning and significance of Easter. On that
day, Christians from every nation and tribe on earth unite in an
outburst of joy and exuberance. It is the zenith, the apogee, the
utter pinnacle of the Christian year. Easter is the celebration of
the resurrection from the dead of Our Lord, Jesus Christ.
Christians
believe that as a gracious consequence of his resurrection, we,
too, may anticipate our resurrection to eternal life.
The
Church has spoken eloquently of Our Lord's resurrection. One way
it has attempted to depict the significance of Easter is through
the medium of visual symbols. Here are three of the more
interesting symbols for Easter.
THE BUTTERFLY It is patent why the butterfly has become one of the
loveliest symbols of Easter. The beautiful form of the butterfly
coming from the seemingly lifeless chrysalis could hardly fail to
suggest itself as a parallel to Christ's release from the tomb.
Furthermore, the individual Christian's victory over death and the
grave is suggested as well. The larva suggests the lowly condition
of man on earth. The chrysalis represents the body of man in the
grave. And, of course, the butterfly signifies his glorified body
destined for eternal life.
THE PHOENIX The Phoenix is a bird of legend. After living for four
or five hundred years, it gathers a nest of sweet smelling twigs
and spices. The nest is set on fire by the heat of the sun, and
the phoenix is consumed, only to rise from the ashes -- recreated
and young. Thus begins a new cycle of never-ending life. The
parallel to both Our Lord's resurrection as well as our own is
self-evident. From the ashes of death and destruction, we rise to
newness of eternal life.
THE EASTER LILY Easter lilies which make up such a large share of
church decorations on Easter Sunday are perhaps the most
traditional of all Easter symbols. All gardeners know that the
bulb of the lily must first shrivel and become death-like in
appearance. But after planting, it grows to blossom at Easter time
in a display of white glory. The analogy is again obvious. From
death comes life. From ugliness comes stunning beauty.
