The Paschal Lamb -- Prepped For Slaughter

Pesach. The Passion.
Korban Pesach. Lamb of God.
It's all here and about us now, this doubly holy week. 
Thank G*d. Thank God.
Meanwhile...


























Exodus 12:22 "You shall take a bunch of hyssop and dip it in the blood which is in the basin, and apply some of the blood that is in the basin to the lintel and the two doorposts; and none of you shall go outside the door of his house until morning.




The Lord spoke to Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, on the first new moon of the second year following the exodus from the land of Egypt, saying: Let the Israelite people offer the passover sacrifice at its set time: you shall offer it on the fourteenth day of this month, at twilight, at its set time; you shall offer it in accordance with all its rites and rules
– Num. 9:1–3, JPS translation







The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.   John 1:29

And I don't know from whom I swiped some of these pics.
I probably found them long ago in a Google image
search and neglected to note origins. I thank the
creators of such fine work.
