Esperanto version 3 : Ho Filo de Homo !
Vualita en Mia antaumemora Esto kaj en la pratempa
eterneco de Mia esenco, Mi konadis Mian amon al vi ; tial Mi kreis vin. Mi gravuris en vin Mian bildon kaj rivelis al vi Mian belecon.
3: O SON OF MAN! Veiled in My immemorial being and in the ancient eternity of My essence, I knew My love for thee;
therefore I created thee, have engraved on thee Mine image and revealed to thee My beauty.

Easter in Sweden: 'Påsk'


Easter has up to our own times, been a religious
holiday in Sweden, and Easter Week has had an air of solemnity about it. Weddings and christenings , for
example, have not been considered appropriate during this week. Only in recent years Swedish cinemas has been open on Good Friday.


Easter week starts with Palm Sunday, commemorating Christ's triumphant entry in to Jerusalem. In Catholic countries this is a day of joyous processions of people carrying palm fronds and laying them before the image of Christ. In Sweden's climate some other kind of branches had to take the place of palms; early budding varieties of willow were a common choice.
