Leviticus 18:3, 4 – “You shall not do what is done in the land of Egypt where you lived, nor are you to do what is done in the land of Canaan where I am bringing you; you shall not walk in their statutes. You are to perform My judgments and keep my statutes, to live in accord with them; I am the Lord your God.”
Halloween is one of the world’s biggest holidays, especially in the United States. The Halloween ritual has a pagan origin. It dates back more than 2,000 years to Ireland. An ancient Celtic fire festival called Samhain was celebrated usually from 31st October to 1st November at the end of summer. It was focused on fire as winter approached and to bring light into the darkness. People knew that there would be lots of deaths of animals and humans during the harsh winter months. It was the time of the Celtic new year, a time of death and rebirth. Costumes and ugly masks were worn to scare away malevolent spirits believed to have been set free from the realm of the dead. Celtic pagans lit one giant bonfire in the village, danced around and acted out stories of death, regeneration and survival. Animals and crops were burned as sacrifices to Celtic deities. How the Catholic church influenced the Anglo-Saxons of Britain in the 6th and 13th centuries and how the All Saints Day and All Souls Day started in the Catholic church soon after Halloween are discussed.
