[Walter and Deborah]

Thursday 6-1-23 4th. Day Of The Weekly Cycle, Sivan 12 5783, 74th. Spring Day

Genesis 22

Offering Of Issac

1 And it came to pass after these things, that God did tempt Abraham, and said unto him, Abraham: and he said, Behold, here I am.

2 And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of.

3 And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and saddled his ass, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son, and clave the wood for the burnt offering, and rose up, and went unto the place of which God had told him.

4 Then on the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place afar off.

 

5 And Abraham said unto his young men, Abide ye here with the ass; and I and the lad will go yonder and worship, and come again to you.

6 And Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering, and laid it upon Isaac his son; and he took the fire in his hand, and a knife; and they went both of them together.

7 And Isaac spake unto Abraham his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here am I, my son. And he said, Behold the fire and the wood: but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?

8 And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so they went both of them together.

 

9 And they came to the place which God had told him of; and Abraham built an altar there, and laid the wood in order, and bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar upon the wood.

10 And Abraham stretched forth his hand, and took the knife to slay his son.

11 And the angel of the Lord called unto him out of heaven, and said, Abraham, Abraham: and he said, Here am I.

12 And he said, Lay not thine hand upon the lad, neither do thou any thing unto him: for now I know that thou fearest God, seeing thou hast not withheld thy son, thine only son from me.

 

13 And Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold behind him a ram caught in a thicket by his horns: and Abraham went and took the ram, and offered him up for a burnt offering in the stead of his son.

14 And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovahjireh: as it is said to this day, In the mount of the Lord it shall be seen.

15 And the angel of the Lord called unto Abraham out of heaven the second time,

16 And said, By myself have I sworn, saith the Lord, for because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only son:

 

17 That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies;

18 And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice.

19 So Abraham returned unto his young men, and they rose up and went together to Beersheba; and Abraham dwelt at Beersheba.

20 And it came to pass after these things, that it was told Abraham, saying, Behold, Milcah, she hath also born children unto thy brother Nahor;

 

21 Huz his firstborn, and Buz his brother, and Kemuel the father of Aram,

22 And Chesed, and Hazo, and Pildash, and Jidlaph, and Bethuel.

23 And Bethuel begat Rebekah: these eight Milcah did bear to Nahor, Abraham's brother.

24 And his concubine, whose name was Reumah, she bare also Tebah, and Gaham, and Thahash, and Maachah.

The wondrous provision of a Saviour when we needed Him: "For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. " (Romans 5.6). What a gracious provision!

John 8:56 Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day, and he saw it and was glad.

8 And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so they went both of them together.

 

John 1:29 The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said,

Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!

1 hour ago, Walter and Deborah said:

12 And he said, Lay not thine hand upon the lad, neither do thou any thing unto him: for now I know that thou fearest God, seeing thou hast not withheld thy son, thine only son from me.

Hebrews 11:

17 By faith Abraham, when he was tested, offered up Isaac, and he who had

received the promises offered up his only begotten son, 

18 of whom it was said, In Isaac your seed shall be called,

19 concluding that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead,

from which he also received him in a figurative sense.

1 hour ago, Walter and Deborah said:

16 And said, By myself have I sworn, saith the Lord, for because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only son:

17 That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies;

18 And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice.

Genesis 26:5 Because that Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my charge,

my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.

Hebrews 6:

13 For when God made a promise to Abraham, because

He could swear by no one greater, He swore by Himself, 

14 saying, “Surely blessing I will bless you, and

multiplying I will multiply you.

15 And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise. 

16 For men indeed swear by the greater, and an oath for

confirmation is for them an end of all dispute. 

17 Thus God, determining to show more abundantly to the heirs

of promise the immutability of His counsel, confirmed it by an oath, 

18 that by two immutable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie,

we might have strong consolation, who have fled for refuge

to lay hold of the hope set before us.

Yes amen .. my  provider huge yet simple and sweet.
