Agnus Dei

Agnus Dei (ăg´ns dē´ī, än´ys dā´ē) [Lat.], the Lamb of God, i.e., Jesus. The lamb of the Passover sacrifice is said to prefigure the crucifixion. Isaiah calls the expected Messiah the Lamb of God, and Jesus is met by John the Baptist with the words, "Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the world." In the Mass the Agnus Dei, or Lamb of God, is said or sung while the communion bread is being broken for distribution. It is usually the final movement of choral masses. In Anglican worship it is sung during communion. In iconography a lamb with halo and cross is called an Agnus Dei. I'm reading a book by Perry Stone "The Priesthood & the Blood" I looked up some information on the perfect Lamb and found out that the Samaritans still practice it as old of Moses. I found this on the internet. And thought you might like some information that I had found. I hope you enjoy it. The way they place the lamb to cook is on wood in shape as a cross. Rev. Londa Picard.
