Our Lord is the Lamb of God which taketh away the sin of the world. (Rev. 5, the Lamb has seven horns and eyes, "which are the seven spirits of God sent forth into all the earth," i.e., invested with the attributes of God, power and omniscience, and receiving the homage of the universe.
Bethabara. The place where John baptized. The meaning of that word is "house" or "place of passing over," supposed to refer to the place where the Israelites passed over Jordan: "Beth-Abarah." It is also called "Bethany" from a word which is said to mean, "place of ships" (boats). It was a place "beyond Jordan," and is not the Bethany on the Mount of Olives, the name of which comes from a word meaning "place of dates."
