The defense calls it's next witness.

.
Blood has a voice.

†. Gen 4:10 . .Then He said: What have you done? Hark, your brother's blood cries out to me from the ground!

The Hebrew word for "cries out" is from tsa'aq (tsaw-ak') and means: to shriek; which can be defined as a wild involuntary scream.

Whether or not human blood actually has an audible voice isn't nearly important as to what it might be saying. And in murder cases like the State of God vs Citizen Cain in the matter of Abel's death, it certainly can't be good.

In civil law, it's handy to produce the corpus delicti in a homicide case because it's very useful for proving the reality of a death, and for establishing the cause, and the time of its occurrence. It's interesting that God didn't produce Abel's body for evidence. He could have, but instead relied upon the voice of his body's blood. So a murder victim's blood can be introduced as a witness in the courts of Heaven. That is very interesting.

When Abel's blood spoke, its testimony served to convict the guilty. In contrast, when the Lord's blood speaks; its testimony serves to acquit the guilty (e.g. Rom 5:6-11, 1Pet 1:18-19) . That's a whole lot more to people's advantage.

†. Heb 12:22-24 . . But you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem . . and to the blood of sprinkling that speaks better things than the blood of Abel.

The Lord's blood certainly does speak "better" things than Able's. The Lord's blood is a witness for the defense, while Abel's blood was a witness for the prosecution.
