Passover Lamb - Affection

Passover Lamb – Affection and Effect

Affection Four days earlier, they had chosen their very best male lamb in its first year, in obedience to Moses’ command.

Andrew’s Lamb – a Passover Story

It was a hot, sunny day as Andrew walked along the dusty road toward Jerusalem for the Passover. A few steps ahead of him walked his father, head gray with age yet still very strong.
