TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION By Candlemas, forty days after Christmas, February 2, the season of Christs coming has depleted our candle supply. Soon, the parish will order a new paschal candle from a catalogue or candlemaker, or in some communities, wax will be collected to be melted and molded. Last years paschal candle shows the wear and tear of summer heat, or many funerals or baptisms. Paschal candles have been around since at least the fourth century, when Constantines biographer Eusebius reported that the night of the sacred vigil was transformed into the brilliancy of day, by lighting throughout the city pillars of wax, while burning lamps in every place so that the splendor of this night was brighter than the brightest daylight. Light was a precious commodity in the ancient world, and this lavish use of precious beeswax was a sign of the Christians call to bear Christs light into the worlds darkness. In a pre-electric age, a whole city aglow from the paschal flame must have been a glorious sight, and a reminder to every baptized Christian of our vocation to be the light of the world. Rev. James Field, Copyright J. S. Paluch Co.
