Lamentations for Josiah Slaughter the Passover lambs The act of slaughtering the Passover lambs is deeply rooted in the Hebrew tradition, originating from the Exodus narrative where the Israelites were commanded to sacrifice a lamb and mark their doorposts with its blood. The Hebrew word for "slaughter" (שָׁחַט, shachat) implies a ritualistic and sacred act, emphasizing the solemnity and obedience required in this practice. This act is a foreshadowing of the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the world (John 1:29). Historically, this ritual was a communal event, reinforcing the unity and shared faith of the Israelite community.
