Lamb of God
John the Baptist was a well accepted prophet and teacher of God's laws. When he saw Jesus approaching him, he prophesied saying that Jesus was the Lamb of God that takes away the sins of the world. During Passover lambs without blemish were slain to commemorate that day of redemption from death. It was also a ritual for the Jews to slay a lamb every morning and evening in the temple for the forgiveness of sins.
John 1:29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.
