For rub, combine lemon juice, honey, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder and thyme. Rub on all surfaces of lamb roast. Combine spinach, green onions, oregano and 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder; mix well. Stir in feta cheese and bread crumbs. Untie lamb roast and place skin-side down on a flat surface. Cut meaty part of roast as necessary to allow it to lie as flat as possible. Do not cut through skin-side of roast. Place stuffing onto roast pressing into meat. Roll up and tie securely. Place on rack in a roasting pan. Roast in 325 degrees F oven for 20 to 25 minutes per pound or to desired degree of doneness: 145 degrees F for medium-rare, 160 degrees F for medium or 170 degrees F for well. Let stand 10 minutes.
