I saw this last night the symbolism & parallels to Christianity was awesome.
Asland = Jesus (Lion of Judah)
White Witch = Devil
Edmond = Judas Iscariot
Peter
Thomnas = Thomas
The White Witch telling Thomnas that he was there because Edmond sold him out for treats...
The White Witch telling Asland that she required blood to make up for Edmund's betrayal... (and I didn't catch the next part, but someone with me did) or Narnia would burst into flames (hell)
Asland telling the Witch "How dare you talk to me about the law... I was there when it was written..."
Asland giving himself as a sacrifice in Edmund's place...
Asland taking the walk towards the altar and the crowd mocking him (as in the crucifixion) and then they struck him.
Someone (I think it was the witch) asking why didn't he save himself...
The 2 girls coming to Asland and later finding that he wasn't dead (The women coming to annoint Jesus' body and found that he was not dead)
The splitting of the altar (i.e. the renting of the veil)...
Asland going to the White Witch's castle to free the "frozen" prisoners (i.e. Jesus going to free those in hell)
The one drop of the potion that Lucy carried that could heal any wound - which happened to be red (as in blood)...
There also was an earlier part where Asland crowned Peter as Sir Peter Wolfbane, but I saw this as "upon this rock I will build my church (you have to understand the meaning of the name Peter)".
