Some time later God tested Abraham. He said to him, “Abraham!” “Here I am,” he replied. Then God said, “Take your son, your only son, Isaac, whom you love, and go to the region of Moriah. Sacrifice him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains I will tell you about.” Early the next morning Abraham got up and saddled his donkey. He took with him two of his servants and his son Isaac. When he had cut enough wood for the burnt offering, he set out for the place God had told him about. On the third day Abraham looked up and saw the place in the distance. He said to his servants, “Stay here with the donkey while I and the boy go over there. We will worship and then we will come back to you.” Abraham took the wood for the burnt offering and placed it on his son Isaac, and he himself carried the fire and the knife. As the two of them went on together, Isaac spoke up and said to his father Abraham, “Father?” “Yes, my son?” Abraham replied. “The fire and wood are here,” Isaac said, “but where is the lamb for the burnt offering?” Abraham answered, “God himself will provide the lamb for the burnt offering, my son.” And the two of them went on together. When they reached the place God had told him about, Abraham built an altar there and arranged the wood on it. He bound his son Isaac and laid him on the altar, on top of the wood. Then he reached out his hand and took the knife to slay his son. But the angel of the Lord called out to him from heaven, “Abraham! Abraham!” “Here I am,” he replied. “Do not lay a hand on the boy,” he said. “Do not do anything to him. Now I know that you fear God, because you have not withheld from me your son, your only son.” Abraham looked up and there in a thicket he saw a ram caught by its horns. He went over and took the ram and sacrificed it as a burnt offering instead of his son. So Abraham called that place The Lord Will Provide. And to this day it is said, “On the mountain of the Lord it will be provided.” The angel of the Lord called to Abraham from heaven a second time and said, “I swear by myself, declares the Lord, that because you have done this and have not withheld your son, your only son, I will surely bless you and make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as the sand on the seashore. Your descendants will take possession of the cities of their enemies, and through your offspring all nations on earth will be blessed, because you have obeyed me.” Then Abraham returned to his servants, and they set off together for Beersheba. And Abraham stayed in Beersheba. Some time later Abraham was told, “Milcah is also a mother; she has borne sons to your brother Nahor: Uz the firstborn, Buz his brother, Kemuel (the father of Aram), Kesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph and Bethuel.” Bethuel became the father of Rebekah. Milcah bore these eight sons to Abraham's brother Nahor. His concubine, whose name was Reumah, also had sons: Tebah, Gaham, Tahash and Maacah.

This is a good reminder to those who think. following God well be a easy life. Being obedient is not easy and one day God may ask you to make a sacrifice that most wouldn't be possible to most people. it's easy to say that your Jewish or Christian but it's not easy when your looking at a dagger over your head and still say "I have faith in my god."

Brother it's wrong clip .. Abraham pbuh sacrifice his first son Ishmael ,not Issac .. He had no son ,he prayed God to have a son and God blessed him with a first son name was Ishmael and then God tested him by sacrifice , God want to test that I gave him son because of his pray and I agreed to him and now I'm testing for that same son to sacrifice , let see shell he obey me or reject? That's way to test his beleive toward God ,so he brought his son Ishmael to sacrifice for God ... Not Isaac bro ..

@@skbihaan3832 my bad I'm trying to give the Old testament moor attention so there's still a lot I'm still ignorant about.

It is all mind control. Any institution that accepts a God who "tests" with irrational commands wants control over your critical and creative thinking skills.

[@HOADisinfectant]

@@west20087 The real Moors knew/know God was within them and reject irrational authority.

I can compare this To God. He sacrifice his only son Jesus Christ for us sinners, Jesus Christ knew it and also willing to do it. That is how God Love us unconditionally.

So God didn’t know that Abraham feared him? “Now I know that you fear God”…only AFTER Abraham was about to go through with it. So not all-knowing.

Its mean sacrifice your attachment so your awarness still clear in The Lord. Bcause of attachment to something, awareness bcome degrade... You will see second or duality, not oneness

[@adhisanjaya235]

No, not kill "son" body. But the attachment

[@adilkanouni-lr8cf]

Ismail tht was going to be sacrificed not Isaac cs Ismail was the 1st born then Isaac Come 13 years after him don't lie to ppl nd give them false stories

[@mn-ru4li]

So God's really into human sacrifices. It makes the devil seem like a pretty sensible alternative.

[@thangknowa3288]

Sorry you missed it. Study some more.

[@combatbeatdown]

Completely went over your head on the purpose of this story

[@namedrop_6092]

yea the fallen angel that wants to take as many humans as he can to spite God, because he hates us as much as he hates God, hmm sensible alternative is a weird choice of words
