Ok, so its a step in the compile that rewrites and analyzes it?

It's actually really neat. Normally a lambda would just be a function but if it gets cast to an Expression then you get the AST at runtime. Entity Framework analyzes these at runtime to generate the SQL and logic/mapping etc. You can get the AST at compile time in some situations with a Roslyn plug-in or etc I believe as well.
