The Lamb


The second image of Jesus in the Book of Revelation (5:1-14) is that of a Lamb.  This is the first time that title appears in the book, but it will appear 30 times more as the visions continue.  He bears the wounds of his passion, but has triumphed and therefore stands erect.  The sacrifice of this Lamb never has to be repeated.
