Christmas symbols such as candles, bells, evergreens and mistletoe, are an integral part of our celebration of festivals. However, many people do not know the meaning of these symbols or how they evolved.
The first known use of the bells of Christmas was in the fourth century. It is said that Bishop Paulinus of Nola, in Campania, Italy, first rang the bells for Christmas. The Latin word for Bell, Campanula, just those words.
The candles are used in many countries at Christmas as a symbol of faith. Lighted candles in their windows on Christmas Eve to welcome the baby Jesus is an old custom in Ireland. In Norway, the candles are called radiating blessings.
The use of conifer rooted in festivals pagan. The Romans thought luck green branches in the new year. The Church eventually accept them because there is a passage from Isaiah mentions the use of fir and pine, to beautify the sanctuary of God.
The custom of decorating a Christmas tree comes from Germany, where the legend Martin Luther said that resulted in a reduction of host tree. Then he decorated it with lighted candles to represent stars.
The poinsettia has been used only as a symbol of Christmas since 1836, when Joel Poinsett, Minister of Mexico, has a house in South Carolina. Mistletoe is used as decoration, and of course, a person standing under it can wait to be kissed. This custom in May rose to an old legend that if a girl does not get a kiss under the mistletoe, you will not marry in the coming year. The holly decoration Our houses are first used in France and England in the beginning. A branch hanging over the door indicates a house in which Christ observed.
The custom of gift giving comes from gifts the infant Jesus by the Magi. The gifts he gave the baby Jesus was symbolic in itself. The gold represents royalty, frankincence the high priesthood, and myrrh, that great doctor.
Of course, the use of angels, stars and scenes from history Nativity comes directly from Christmas told in the Bible.
Suspension of low return to Saint-Nicolas, a bishop of Asia Minor, the fourth century. In one legend, he threw the gold down the chimney of a house where three children were about to be sold as slaves, because her poor father could not afford a dowry for them. Gold fell in their stockings, which hung by the fire to dry.
However, the observation These customs of Christmas, think about its meaning and how it originated.
