A lamb is a meek creature. It hurts none, is hurt by all; it hangs not back, when it is led to the slaughter; it cries not when it is pierced; no greater emblem of patience to be found among irrational creatures. To this the prophet likens our Savior, when he said, “He was brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before the shearers is dumb, so he opened not his mouth,' Isaiah 53:7. How strange was His humility in entering into such a life!
