Did God command His people to have an egg with the Passover meal (NO!) or was it something they picked up in Babylon (PROBABLE)? The egg goes back to Babylon as a symbol of the life cycle. This is a problem when man puts traditions in place of Gods Word.
Maybe they just like eggs?

PROBABLE? Tell me, when the Hellenic Jews dispersed across the whole Roman world were Christianized, did the apostles warn them that they had picked up pagan elements into their religious celebrations? Did Joseph and Mary use eggs in their Haggadeh? If not, how old was Jesus when he told them not to?
There is much in the Haggadeh that is not spelled out in the book of Exodus. When you GUESS that it must be pagan, because, gosh, pagans like eggs, you make a very grave and wholly unsubstantiated accusation against the people who became the first Christian.
You talk as if Babylonians invented eggs! ("The egg goes back to Babylon as a symbol of the life cycle.")
