Actually, most of the yeast bread that you buy in the store (unless it is Challah) most likely does NOT have eggs. Good Italian and French rustic breads normally do not either.

Bread that does have egg in it, such as Challah, may have it to help bind the flour and other parts together, but is likely to have egg primarily for flavor purposes. With yeast bread, the gluten that forms usually means that the bread does not need egg to bind and hold together.

If you're talking about quick bread, or bread with no yeast, then the egg primarily acts as a binder unlike in the case of yeast breads.

Hardly any breads are made with egg, egg can sometimes be used to brush the top and make the top crunchy

No, you don't need eggs to make bread. Some recipes call for eggs, but most do not.

Bread is often made partially from yeast as it helps it to rise as it is baked in the oven. This gives bread its distinctive fluffy texture and appearance.
