👉 The term "Lambs & Ivy" comes from a biblical story where Jesus healed the lame man, which involved water being poured over the injured limb to soften it for easier movement. Definition: In this passage (Mark 4:27), Jesus, the carpenter and scribe (the teacher), is at his disciples' houses. A woman with a lame leg approaches him and says, "Teacher, I am here." When he sees her, he calls out, "Lambs & Ivy!" He says, "You are not lame; you have healed" (Mark 4:27). Jesus then heals her, telling her, "I don't need any more water for your leg. You can go on your journey now."
