Since “the soul [or, life] of the flesh is in the blood, ” what is really represented as being at the foot of the altar is the blood of faithful servants of Jesus who were slaughtered because of their bold and zealous witnessing. ​ — Leviticus 17: 11.
Kuna „liha hing [ehk elu] on veres ”, kujutatakse tegelikult altari all nende Jeesuse ustavate teenijate verd, kes on tapetud nende julge ja innuka tunnistustöö pärast.
