  1. Allegory of the Lamb Not a kid or cub or calf or foal, But a LAMB (baby sheep) The offspring of a ewe, having a fleece, and basically helpless.

  2. The PASSOVER lamb • In Egypt they weren’t vegetarians. • They ate the lamb as required. • They ate ALL of it. • We’re learning about a lamb—it’s a precept. “Whatsoever things were written aforetime, were written for our learning” - Rom15:4

  3. Uriah’s Lamb • Her name was Bathsheba. • The story was told to David by a man-of-God, Nathan, in 2Sam12. • She wasn’t really a lamb – actually, she was the wife of Uriah. • Nathan had used figurative terms to describe a real truth.

  4. Lamb of God, Jesus • Introduced by John Baptist, in John1:29. • Declared we should “eat him” in John 6:53. (Protection from the destroyer of Ex12:23 – Satan). • His fleece is a vesture, Rev19:13, and a “body prepared”, Heb10:5, Rom8:3, and Phil 2:7.

  5. Three Lambs: Passover, Uriah’s, and God’s. Adam & Eve were two that became one, and were “fruitful”. The sun and moon have the same “light” (cp Jn8:12, 10:30). A pattern must be on the order of a,b,c, or 1,2,3 – a kind of repetition. “For the law having a shadow of things to come..” Heb 10:1

  6. “For the word of God is quick and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit…” Heb4:12 If they can be divided, then they aren’t the same, are they? “I pray GOD your whole spirit, and soul, and body, be preserved blameless until the coming of the Lord”.1Thes5:23 “God is a spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth”. John4:24 I’m a spirit, I have a soul, and I live in a body!
