Paschal Victim, paschal bread. He is the Passover sacrifice or victim. He is “the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world.” Paschal is the Greek for Passover. It is our feast. We are Israel, and the Lamb that was sacrificed as the victim of all our sins is now given to us for food, for our souls to eat and our mouths to eat, and we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God that this Lamb has brought to us.
