        \u00a0II. THE CRUCIFIXION \u2013 JESUS AS THE FULFILLMENT OF PASSOVER<\/span><\/h2>\n

        1. Jesus\u2019 Identity: The Lamb of God<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

        John 1:29 (Greek):<\/strong><\/span>
        “Behold the Lamb of God<\/strong> who takes away the sin of the world!”<\/span>

              \n
            • \n
