Born in a Manger- New depth of meaning!

Just yesterday I was reflecting on Isaiah 53:5-6, which says, 

"But He was pierced through for our transgressions,
He was crushed for our iniquities;
The chastening for our well-being fell upon Him,
And by His scourging we are healed.
6 All of us like sheep have gone astray,
Each of us has turned to his own way;
But the Lord has caused the iniquity of us all
To fall on Him."

Jesus, born in a manger, like a little lamb.

In Gen 22 we read where G^d provides a ram as a lamb to Abraham to sacrifice as a SUBSTITUTE for Isaac.

As a young man, he is described as the "Lamb of G^d who takes away the sin of the world in John 1:29, 36 and Jesus is the Lamb in Rev. 14:1.

And above, in Isaiah, we are, "... like sheep have gone astray...". So, first Jesus is the lamb, and He becomes like us sheep. G^d became man and dwelt among us in John 1:14.

But, as Isaiah points out Jesus becomes the Passover Lamb who saves us from the death angel. In the Last Supper Jesus clearly says MY Blood, MY body, given for you.

From the substitute for Isaac, to the Passover, to that little manger where G^d became flesh, to that last supper, to the Lamb of G^d who takes away the sin of the world on the cross. What continuity.

Only G^d!
