The Rabbit versus the Lamb

Ever wondered why there are bunnies & eggs everywhere at Easter?  A brief history:  Easter commemorates the resurrection of Jesus: rising to life again after being tortured and killed by crucifixion.

Scripture(s): Exodus 1 – 14:4 Notes: The story of the Passover (and indeed all of Israel’s history) is incredible and riveting to adults and children.
