Genesis 20 - 22

Genesis 22

One of the greatest prophetic stories in the Bible, where the father (figuratively) sacrifices his only son, and receives him back alive 3 days after receiving the command from God. This all took place on Mt Moriah, where God’s Only Son would be sacrificed almost 2,000 years later, and rise from the dead on the 3rd day. Abraham knew that God’s promises through Isaac could not fail, and he knew that God had to raise him from the dead if he was going to be sacrificed in that place.
