TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION By Candlemas, forty days a er Christmas, February 2, the season of Christ’s coming has depleted our can-dle supply. Soon, the parish will order a new paschal candle from a catalogue or candlemaker, or in some communi-

es, wax will be collected to be melted and molded. Last year’s paschal candle shows the wear and tear of summer heat, or many funerals or bap sms. Paschal candles have been around since at least the fourth centu-ry, when Constan ne’s biographer Eu-sebius reported that the night of the

sacred vigil was “transformed in-to the brilliancy of day, by ligh ng 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 Chris an’s call to bear Christ’s light into the world’s 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 bap zed Chris an of our voca on to “be the light of the world.”
