Continuing our series of I Didn’t Know That, we take a look at the common symbolism attributed to that famous Christmas song; The Twelve Days of Christmas. Be aware, the song was not written as a mnemonic device to memorize Christian symbolism, but we can still have fun learning.
The tenth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me: Ten Lords A-leaping
This has been given the symbolism of:
Ten Commandments
(though there are really 613, but we all know the big ten)
Stayed tuned for the next episode where we’ll look at the Eleventh Day of Christmas.
