Reading: The Precious Blood was seen in prophecy long before our Saviour was born. It was prefigured by countless numbers of animals in the religion of God's chosen people. These were sin offerings or holocausts offered to show God's infinite supremacy over the world and all creation. (MCM, p. 315)
