‘At the next day, Yochanan saw Yeshu coming to him, and he said: Behold the Lamb of g-d which
takes away the sin of the world’.
1. Introduction.
Recently, I argued with a person of “messianic” faith (hebraized evangelical christianism) who told
me that as a Jew I had to believe in Yeshu ben-Pandira because he was slain for our sins and
because he was the Lamb of G-d, then referred to me that Yeshu was akin to the Matzah
(unleavened bread) consumed during Passover, and that was my "salvation". Unfortunately this
person does not know the Semitic background of the word Sheh (שה-lamb or goat) in the context
of Avodat HaBa'al ( עבודת בעלBa'al-Worship), which illustrate the background of such pagan
designation he was associated with a deity, as in the case of the “New Testament."
The ancient deities in India have one of these: Indra, compared constantly to a bull or lamb. [1]
Under his taurine form, that divinity made an unity with the goddess cow under cosmic
proportions. Prishni is one of his names.
Later, Sumerians and Babylonians developed a type of trinity: Enlil, Bel and Ningala. The first one
was the god of the water and he was who provoke the universal flood.[4] Bel was symbolized as
a mighty warrior [5] and his wife, Ningala, “the huge cow”, ummun rebetum, “the great mother”
was invoked by the name of Beltu or Belit, meaning “Madame”.[6]
There’s no surprise that Baal had a couple, Asherat (Anat, Ashtart, אשטרת, אנט,)אשרה, and his
son, Aliyan ( )עליעןwas a divinity of the water, the fertility and vegetation [11]. The bulls were
sacrificed to Baal (remember the scene of Eliahu hanavi and the prophets of baal in the Carmel
mount). The Assyrian form of baal, Bel ()בל, was worshiped like “divine bull” and sometimes he
was called “the great Ram”[12].
6. The divine Lamb according the greeks, and the revelation of Yeshu.
The pagan doctrines of Baal evolved and made presence in Greece. For ancient greeks, there was
a tradition, a ceremony of using some man like a scape-goat
"In ancient Greek, there was a tradition on wich one selected man served as carrier of the sins of
the polis (city). He was called "pharmakos" (magic man) [13] who was dressed with special clothes
and were crowned with a crown made of plants [14]. Dyonisius (the god the greek brought from
india) was a Pharmakos that was killed for the "sin of the world" [15]. In that procession, he
walked to get out of the city and on the road people gathered to insult and cry, to hit that man
[16]. Also the participants received hits and were scared by masked men [17]. The annual
ceremony in his memory was made in the road to Eleusis... that was the origin of the later
christian Via Dolorosa (Way of Suffering). Just in the same way, Yeshu said about himself like a
pharmakos: “They will mock him, spit on him, flog him with a whip, and kill him (Mark 10:34)
In all those pagan ceremonies, there was a sacrifice of a Lamb (or a Bull), the animal was killed and
then all pagan worshipers were covered by the blood of sacrifice, and at the conclusion of the
ceremony, they were considered as "Born Again" because they had been "washed in the blood of
the lamb."
Paul the gnostic wizard wrote: “without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness” (Hebrews
9:22). It presents Yeshu like “the Lambd of G-d” whose destiny was the sacrifice. The notzrim
(Christians, “messianics” and Nazarenes/natzratim) talk about “born again” by washing their
clothes “in the blood of the lamb” (Revelations 7:14).
Those metaphors are an echo of the mysteries of Atis. They were bloody rituals. In modern world
we don’t presence the killing of animals for eating, they’re done in closed locations,[18]. In the
rite of Tauronolium (sacrifice of bull), the animal was killed in a platform with holes and the blood
In the mysteries of Mithras, like in christianism, those rituals were celebrated in a symbolic way
(bread and wine in a table).
Also an egyptian poet worshiped to his dead and resurrected savior, Osiris, with words that can be
used by christians for their Yeshu without any problem:
“Have you been sacrificed? Do they say you have dead for them? You’re nor dead, you live
forever! You’re more alive than them, because you’re the mystic sacrifice. He’s their Lord, alive
and young forever.”[21]
In the same way of natzrut (Christianity), the Pagan Mysteries had the teaching of “original sin”.
For Plato, the soul was jailed inside of the body as a punishment for an ancient sin [22]. According
Empedocles, the gentiles go from a place to other in order to purge the guilt contracted in the
divine world [23]. Those “Mysteries” taught that the original sin consisted in setting apart from
god [24]. The mortal sacrifice of a god-man, or a sacred animal, symbolized the death of the bad
soul, the rebirth of the divine nature which resurrect and elevated to unite itself with the god in
order to expiate the sin.
7. Conclusion.
We have seen how the bull, the ram, the lamb has been linked with pagan customs in the
symbolism of the redemption of sins… “The lamb of god which take away the sin of the world”.
But we are commanded:
“Which was very known and disseminated as a worship of idols, or which was destined for it, has
been banned. Those pagan customs were forbidden because they led to idolatry…”
The new presentation of “messianics” and Nazarenes is nothing but worship to baal disguised and
“hebraized” with the Greco-latin paganism.
‘Ad-matai atém posjim al-sh’te haseipim im-HaShem haElokim leju, ajarav ve’im-haBa’al leju
ajarav’
(‘¿How long will you waver between two ways? If HaShem is G-d, follow him; but if Baal is G-d,
follow him)…

[13] J. Harrison, 1992, p. 220. The word “pharmacy” comes from this word. A pharmakos was a formula and
a banishing spell. In an ancient writing of the early christians/nazarenes, Ignatius of Antioch, describes the
eucharist like “pharmakos tes Zoes”, the medicine of the immortal life”, read R. J. Hoffmann, 1987, p. 16.

the sins.”
[15] The meaning of ritual sacrifices in the Torah are contrary to these kind of pagan rituals. The greek
tragedy born in the Dyonisius’ rituals and the tragodoi were the cantors who took the lamb for the sacrifice,
