DID YOU KNOW?
A lamb is one of the most defenseless creatures in all of creation, so vulnerable that it must be protected by a shepherd. And yet, the lamb is of critical importance, because it is the central theme of God’s Word.

In Genesis, a boy asks his father, “Where is the lamb?”
That question echoes throughout the entire Bible.

At Passover, it is the lamb that dies so the firstborn may live.
The nation of Israel is saved by the blood of the lamb.
In the Temple of Jerusalem, lambs are offered every day, year after year, as sacrifices for sin.

Then, in Isaiah 53, it is prophesied that a Man will give His life “as a lamb to the slaughter,” and through His suffering we would receive healing, forgiveness, and blessing.

Do you see the theme?

The lamb is the life given to save others.
The lamb is the covering for sin.

In Hebrew, the word for lamb is taleh, and from that same root comes a word meaning covering.
The Lamb would become our covering.

So the question remains: Who is the Lamb?

In all of history, is there anyone known above all others for giving His life as an offering—pure, innocent, without blemish, so that we might be saved?

There is only One.

He was identified by John the Baptist, who declared of Jesus:

“Behold, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world.”

Jesus the Messiah, the Lamb of God, the Taleh Elohim.

From the beginning, it was always about the Lamb.
The answer was always linked to the Lamb.

But why a lamb?

Because the lamb represents complete innocence, purity, and goodness.
And the mystery of the Lamb is this:

God Himself would give His life to save us.

For God is love, and the nature of love is to give itself.

The Taleh, the Lamb, is God.
