"Hear ye the word which the LORD speaketh unto you, O house of Israel: Thus saith the LORD, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them. For the customs of the people [are] vain: for [one] cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe. They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not. They [are] upright as the palm tree, but speak not: they must needs be borne, because they cannot go. Be not afraid of them; for they cannot do evil, neither also [is it] in them to do good."-Jeremiah 10:1-5

And to think....that verse predates Christmas trees by more than a millennia and yet the Christians ignored it and started their contradictory tradition in spite of it.

Wasn't there also something in there about "Beware the rabbit that lays brightly colored eggs"?

One should not that this is specifically about natural trees. YHWH has not yet made his opinion of artificial Christmas trees known.

I think it literally translates as "the rabbit who bringeth eggs that confuseth the eye"
