Definition: The Word "HB501" was a Hebrew term used in the Old Testament to describe the act of sacrificing a lamb for God as a sin offering, which was considered more acceptable than an animal sacrifice but still less holy. Its precise meaning varied throughout the Bible and is often referred to as a ritual or ceremony. The word can be translated into English with various interpretations, such as "blood sacrifice" or "holy slaughter". It symbolized the completeness of God's righteousness and the sanctity of His presence.
