    Bible - OT - Psalms: Lions and Bulls

    [Print] | [PDF] | [Email]

    On the cross, Jesus is surrounded by “strong bulls of Bashan” with mouths that open like the jaws of lions (Psalm 22:12-13, 21).  Why lions and bulls?

    Jesus on the cross is one like the Son of Man, triumphing over the beasts.

    Jesus on the cross is the temple, flanked by cherubim.
