The Passover and the Lamb

This story of the Lamb that was slain is woven into the texture of every book in the Bible. The theme of the slain lamb runs like a silver thread, woven in and out of the Book of God, stitching Genesis to Revelation, the beginning and the end. We see it in Abel's offering (Gen. 4) where the lamb was typified; in the ram caught in the thicket (Gen. 22) where the Lamb is prophesied; in the Passover where the Lamb is specified; in Isaiah 53, where the Lamb I personified; In John where the Lamb is identified (Behold the Lamb of God which taketh away the sin of the world) and in the Revelation where the Lamb is glorified.
