God began to teach men that blood is especially important. Later, he taught this to men in other ways. (See Exodus 12:7; Exodus 12:13.) Blood is especially important because it is a sign of Jesus’ death. Jesus died so that he could remove our blame. When he died, he gave his blood for us. Jesus has saved those who trust him. Jesus’ blood is a sign that he has saved them.
