Lambs are mentioned in many contexts in the Bible. They are animals used for sacrifice. They are symbols for purity. They are al
zlopas [31]

so in the Bible humans are compared to his lambs or sheep and the Lord God represents a Shepherd because he looks after us all the time and guides us where to go sometimes when we go astray like sheep do, he leads us back to the sheep pen where we belong and keeps us from the Wolves in the Predators.

so Jesus is represented as a lamb because the lamb was a perfect sacrifice given unto god when people had sinned. when the perfect lamb died for us on the cross we didn't need to make special sacrifices like to killing sheep any more because he payed the penalty for sin.
when people sinned they then needed to make a sacrifice and had to be perfect meaning it had to have no blemishes or birthmarks because blemishes and birthmarks were a symbol of impurity
so when the Bible says a perfect lamb has to sacrificed it needs to be without blemish.
and anyone who trust in the lord will be saved.

Which activity is the best example of a paleolithic lifestyle
dedylja [7]

Answer: A.hunting mammoths

Explanation:

The <em>Palaeolithic period</em> of human history which is also called the <em>Old Stone Age</em>, refers to a period in human history when humans first started making stone tools.

At this point in time, humans still had not learnt to farm and so were nomadic in nature with hunting and gathering as their main food source. A Palaeolithic activity therefore would involve the hunting of Mammoths which were still in existence at the time.
