Fridge Logic: Willow summons the fawn (innocent blood) with an incantation in Hebraic, directed towards the Judeo-Christian creator God ("Adonai Elohe"). The biblical Reference would have been even more blatant if she had summoned a white lamb. However, the "innocent blood" used for a resurrection ritual (after a sacrifice from Buffy to save the world), comes out as fairly christological. To stress the point further, the use of Hebraic for a spell or an incantation never appears anywhere else but here in the entire series. Willow, being raised Jewish, probably knew the language from long before she ever began practicing witchcraft.
