Graphic Bible · Scene 16 of 17

The ordinary worshipper kneels beside the same living female lamb and lays one hand softly on its head at the place of offering. A plain white-linen priest waits separately. The lamb remains calm and intact; initial phase before slaughter, with no knife, blood, or simultaneous later rite.
