The Easter Egg - Mary Magdalene & Ostara - Extra Mythology
🕑 Added 2020-04-07 17:30:01 +0000 UTCWhat do eggs and bunnies have to do with each other? Well not much normally, but for Easter, they're one of the main mascots from two very different roots.

... But I can't find Elsa Dangerfield with Google. Is she someone on your staff?

Lots of fun, and a lot for my first time. Thanks. Going to watch again, and try to catch more of the "Easter Eggs."

that giant egg was made by an American corporation; wasn't it.

Thank you for not using a “blond hair, blue eyes” Jesus!!! The summary given about Jesus; I give it the seminarian stamp of approval. Sure, as a Protestant, I believe he was more than a saint (God incarnate) buuuut I acknowledge and respect that not everyone holds this viewpoint. Huh, the red egg was new info to me and made me go “Huh..... I do not recall that being passed around in any Protestant circles.” Sure enough, it is something that has most likely started with the Catholics (or maybe Orthodox). Huh..... Ostara...... I was under the impression that the name was inspired by Ishtar due to her association with fertility... Yet seeing how Ostara’s lore involving a hare with a reason why she still lay eggs, that seems to be a more likely candidate for the origin. *sees the huge chocolate egg* ...... Dang.....

I'm surprised you didn't label this as "Eggstra Mythology".
