Alternate translation: "like the blood of the spotless lambs that the Jewish priests sacrificed" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-simile]])
Peter expresses the same idea in two different ways to emphasize Christ's purity. Alternate translation: "with no imperfections" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-doublet]])
