{ "item_title" : "Cracking the Easter Egg", "item_author" : [" Edgar Allen "], "item_description" : "Easter- everything you think you know about it is absolutely wrong! It's not your fault - or your mother's - or your Gramma's. It all started almost 2000 years ago - some legends even further back; some not so far. Easter - the name itself is even wrong! It comes from a Germanic fertility goddess and her name was borrowed from an even more ancient goddess. Indeed, the things we know about Easter such as eggs, bunnies, Ash Wednesday, Maundy Thursday and Mardi Gras may have more to do with pagan worship than with Christianity. This book uses only Scripture with a few comments form trusted Biblical Scholars to disperse the fog of 2000 years of Church ritual and tradition and expose the covert pagan practices we teach our children. This book reveals the connections between the harvest festivals ordained by God in Leviticus and the events of the last week of our Lord's life before his crucifixion and resurrection. There are also word studies that add clarity to the meanings of words such as Unleavened Bread, Passover and Easter as well as why we observe the Day on the day that we do. (It was a convoluted compromise borne out of prejudice and hatred of the Jews - Jesus was a Jew - that resulted in Easter becoming a calendar nomad, ever on Sunday but never a fixed date or month). These and many other things are discussed that are seldom heard in sermons and Sunday school lessons such as the Lord's Passover on the day before the night that the death angel came on Egypt and TWO Sabbaths the week that Jesus was crucified. Read this book. You'll never look at Easter the same way.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers1.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/1/72/712/644/1727126440_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "14.99", "online_price" : "14.99", "our_price" : "14.99", "club_price" : "14.99", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
