>>480006 He's a red heifer. Those bulls are known to be sacrificial animals, much like lambs. It's probably to give that sacrifice animal while also making Jesus seem strong and humble.
>>480006 >Why is Jesus a bull Assuming it's meant to be a play on how many ancient cultures- including the Greeks and Romans and yes, Jews too- used bulls as sacrifices to God(s).
>>480007 >>480008 The ancient Israelites valued virile bulls above all other animals and reserved them as sacrifices for major holiday gatherings or, more importantly, as apology to God for severe sins. I suppose if you're going to portray a Hebrew man who was sacrificed for EVERYONE'S sins as some type of animal, a bull makes more sense than a lion (sorry C.S.!)
