Edward on the Resurrection

Yesterday at Sunday School, Edwards class made Resurrection Eggs. In the eggs there was a dime, a leather strip, a cross made of pipe cleaners, a piece of muslin fabric, a stone & a piece of purple ribbon. We went over with Edward what each item stood for in the egg. He told us the dime was for when Judas betrayed Jesus in the Garden, the leather strip was for when the beat Jesus, the cross was for when Jesus hung on it for our sins, the muslin fabric was for when they wrapped Jesus up (after they salt and peppered him (he meant the burial herbs and oils)...we were almost rolling on the floor laughing when he said this portion), the stone was for when it was tomb where Jesus was buried and also for when it was rolled away and he was gone (also the cloth goes here because it was all they found in the tomb after the stone was rolled away 3 days after his death on the cross), and the purple ribbon is royalty and Jesus's Resurrection.
