Because of Jesus' sacrificial role, John the Baptizer identified Jesus as "the Lamb of God that takes away the sin of the world. In speaking of Jesus as a Lamb, John may have had in mind the words of Isaiah: "He was being brought just like a lamb to the slaughtering." (Isaiah 53:7) "He poured out his soul to the very death," prophesied Isaiah. (Isaiah 53:12)
