I came across this a long time ago, but I just now got a chance to watch it. As a 21st Century American, I really have no concept of what animal sacrifice is like. I see this as somewhat of a weak point when I study the Bible, as I don’t even have a basis to imagine the animal sacrifices. When meat gets to me, it no longer bears any resemblance to the animal it once was part of, and to be honest, I’m perfectly happy that way. However, I did enjoy the chance to see this brief video, which gave me at least an inkling of what the sacrificial worship system of ancient Judaism was like. Warning, this video could be considered graphic, as a lamb is sacrificed. The language spoken is probably Hebrew. I could make out when prayers or blessings were offered, but I obviously don’t understand what’s being said. Anyway, you can watch the video, if your stomach is willing, here.
