Do we behold him differently?

Revelation 5:5 And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.

  6 And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.

John was told to behold the Lion, but when he looked, he instead beheld a Lamb!

Lions do look anything like a lamb, or visa versa.

Jesus is referred to as the Lamb twice in the gospel of John:

John 1:29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.

  36 And looking upon Jesus as he walked, he saith, Behold the Lamb of God!

And, Jesus is alluded to in the following two scriptures:

Acts 8:32 The place of the scripture which he read was this, He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb dumb before his shearer, so opened he not his mouth:

I Peter 1:19 But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:

But, Jesus is referred to as the Lamb, 26 times in the book of Revelation.

John the Baptist had twice told the people, "Behold the Lamb of God".

But, apparently, most did not behold a Lamb, rather, they beheld him differently:

Isaiah 53:2 For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.

  3 He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.

The last time that the world saw Jesus, they saw a bloody, beaten, humiliated man, with a crown of thorns, dying on a Roman cross.

What about the next time that world sees Jesus?

So, is the revelation of Jesus, to those who believe on him, the revelation of the Lamb of God?

And that the revelation of Jesus, to those who reject him, the revelation of the Lion of the tribe of Judah?
