This relates to the Second Temple period practice of reclining and eating meals in proximity to other guests, the closest of whom physically was said to lie on the bosom (chest) of the host. (See John 13:23 )<br /><br />While commentators generally agree upon the meaning of the "Bosom of Abraham", they disagree about its origins.<br /><br />From Wiki (Edited).chakapchakapnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3574244939174327228.post-40279530783693212002015-04-01T22:23:12.426+08:002015-04-01T22:23:12.426+08:00Eggs were a traditional symbol of fertility, and r...Eggs were a traditional symbol of fertility, and rebirth. In Christianity, for the celebration of Eastertide, Easter eggs symbolize the empty tomb of Jesus: though an egg appears to be like the stone of a tomb, a bird hatches from it with life; similarly, the Easter egg, for Christians, is a reminder that Jesus rose from the grave, and that those who believe will also experience eternal life.<br /><br />An extract from Wiki.chakapchakapnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3574244939174327228.post-9965867399718849922015-04-01T22:21:23.960+08:002015-04-01T22:21:23.960+08:00Thank YOU Lin for the interesting piece of informa...Thank YOU Lin for the interesting piece of information and for visiting the blog.

It's a beautiful melody though a little melancholic . The lyrics are straightforward and repetitive.<br />'Kumbaya my Lord, kumbaya (3x)<br />O Lord, kumbaya.<br />Someone's singing Lord, kumbaya (3x)<br />O Lord, kumbaya.<br /><br />We'd sing on and on with 'someone's praying Lord/ crying Lord/... and there would be actions, one of which is the raising of hands. Yes Andy, nostalgia is in the air, more felt this past week. And with the holy weekend round the corner, there's even more heartfelt emotions knowing the reason for Good Friday and Easter.<br />Have a good weekend and thank you for the timely posting.CYLINnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3574244939174327228.post-29107300932397073952015-04-01T12:50:12.851+08:002015-04-01T12:50:12.851+08:00Thank you Ronnie.

Alas, the fleeting of time was so merciless that decades had already passed us by. Anyway, no one could turn back the clock!<br /> <br />I noticed your blog about Rita Chao.<br />It was sad to read from your blog that the sweet Ms Chao had left the world, I was shocked and was absolutely oblivious of her passing! She’s such a sweet, shy and quiet natured person that I fondly remembered.<br /> <br />I admire your propriety in always writing good things of others and you really deserve all the respect. You took so much time and effort in just doing all these to keep the music circle alive, one that is few and far between of your creed.RONNIE SEE OF RONNIE AND THE BURNSnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3574244939174327228.post-88847380912648490622015-03-31T22:05:09.606+08:002015-03-31T22:05:09.606+08:00Yes sir I will try and get it up on You Tube.
