Genesis 22:1-3

Living Bible

22 Later on, God tested Abraham’s faith and obedience.^[a]

“Abraham!” God called.

“Yes, Lord?” he replied.

² “Take with you your only son—yes, Isaac whom you love so much—and go to the land of Moriah and sacrifice him there as a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I’ll point out to you!”

³ The next morning Abraham got up early, chopped wood for a fire upon the altar, saddled his donkey, and took with him his son Isaac and two young men who were his servants, and started off to the place where God had told him to go.
