Do you mock Me?
Question: What do April Fool, Friday The 13th and Hocus Pocus have in common?
Answer: ‘Play the fool’ literally commemorates the Roman soldiers’ mocking of the Christ. A portrayal of Good Friday as ‘unlucky’ mocks the notion of His Resurrection, and Hocus Pocus is the rhyming mockery of HOC EST, the first Latin words of the Consecration of His Real Presence via Eucharist.
