Quote:VViews: There is a problem though... this whole iconography of the Lamb in the book of Revelation revolves around the lamb being alive and alert... It is typically depicted standing with one front leg slightly raised (or passant, for those who enjoy heraldry), whether it is holding a banner or a book.
It is never napping or inanimate, and certainly not dead.
VViews take a look at posts #3 and 4. I posted several Agnus Dei examples in which the lamb is prone or sleeping.
