"Who would have thought that a Lamb could rescue the souls of men?”(lyric from the modern hymn "Wonderful, Merciful Savior" by Eric Wyse and Dawn Rogers)
Draw out and take you a lamb according to your families, and kill the passover.
And ye shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in the blood that is in the bason, and strike the lintel and the two side posts with the blood that is in the bason; and none of you shall go out at the door of his house until the morning.
For the LORD will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and when he seeth the blood upon the lintel, and on the two side posts, the LORD will pass over the door, and will not suffer the destroyer to come in unto your houses to smite you.
(Exodus 12:21-23)
Behold, the Lamb of God which taketh away the sin of the world!
(John 1:29)
... the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.
(Revelation 13:8)
Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers;
But with the precious blood of Christ,
as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:
as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:
Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world,
but was manifest in these last times for you.
but was manifest in these last times for you.
(I Peter 1:18-20)
Christ our passover is sacrificed for us.
(I Corinthians 5:7)
