    A '''lamb''' is a kosher animal known for its wool, its humble and passive nature, and its ability to follow.  The lamb and the ram were also common sacrifice animals in the Old Testament. [[Jehovah Jireh]] provided a ram for Abraham to sacrifice (instead of his son Isaac), and Moses told the Hebrews in Egypt to slay a lamb, cover their doorposts with its blood, and eat every part of the lamb before sunrise - or every firstborn would face the Angel of Death.
