The Red Heifer and the Hiss Up

The story of the red heifer is about forgiveness. It's all about being made from being going unclean to being clean. The people of Israel, they painted the lentils and the door posts of their homes with the blood of the lamb. And so here is Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God who's on the cross. His blood is pouring out of him and that sprig of hiss up has reached up to him. So there's this connection between the Passover and this,. But also with this ceremony of the red Heifer that the see the hiss up once again, we think, oh, Jesus.
