點燃圣誕蠟燭
This refers to the tradition of placing a lighted candle outside houses during the Christmas season. A candle signifies hope as it brings light even to the darkest room. In the earlier times, when Christians were persecuted, they were not allowed to practice prayers. Hence, a single candle used to be placed outside the house as a sign that Christian prayers were being conducted inside.
這個傳統指的是人們會在圣誕期間在屋子外面放一支點燃的蠟燭。即便在最黑暗的屋子,蠟燭也能帶來光明,寓意希望。早些年代,也就是基督徒深受迫害的時候,他們被禁止布道禱告。因此,基督徒們在屋外放一支蠟燭,暗示他們仍在心里默默禱告。
