Strong's Lexicon keseb: Lamb Original Word: כֶּשֶׂב Word Origin: From an unused root meaning to dominate Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G286 (amnos): Refers to a lamb, used in the New Testament to describe Jesus Christ as the Lamb of God. - G721 (arnion): A diminutive form of "lamb," often used in Revelation to refer to Christ. Usage: The Hebrew word "keseb" refers to a young sheep, specifically a male lamb. It is often used in the context of sacrificial offerings, symbolizing innocence, purity, and submission. In the Old Testament, lambs were integral to the sacrificial system established by God for the atonement of sins. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, lambs were a common part of pastoral life and held significant religious importance. The sacrificial system, as outlined in the Torah, required the offering of unblemished lambs as a means of atonement for sin. This practice underscored the gravity of sin and the need for a pure and innocent substitute to bear the penalty on behalf of the sinner. The Passover lamb, in particular, was a central element of the Jewish Passover celebration, commemorating the Israelites' deliverance from Egypt.
