PRAYING THE NAMES OF GOD:
Week #32: ARNION AMNOS TOU THEOU - LAMB, LAMB OF GOD
Key Scripture’s : John 1:29

Understanding the Name:
It is impossible to understand the title “Lamb of God” without understanding something about the practice of animal sacrifice in both Old and New Testaments. The sacrificial system provided a way for God’s people to approach him even through they had violated the Mosaic law. When an animal was offered, its blood was shed, and its flesh was then burned on the altar. When the animal was completely consumed by fire, the sacrifice was called a “holocaust.” When only part of the animal was burned, it was considered a “peace offering,” intended to restore communion with God. The animal being sacrificed was a symbolic representation of the people’s desire to offer their own lives to God.

To the Jews the lamb represented innocence and gentleness. Because the sacrifice was meant to represent the purity of intention of the person or people who offered it, lambs had to be without physical blemishes.

The New Testament uses two greek words for Christ as “Lamb” or “Lamb of God” Arnion (AR-nee-on) and Amnos tou Theou (am-NOS tou the-OU). The phrase “Lamb of God” is found only in John’s gospel, though Jesus is often referred to as “the Lamb” in the book of Revelation, where he is portrayed as the Lamb who, though slain, yet lives and reigns victorious. The New Testament also refers to Christ’s followers as lambs.
