Genesis 22:2

Context
22:2 God¹ said, “Take your son – your only son, whom you love, Isaac² – and go to the land of Moriah!³ Offer him up there as a burnt offering⁴ on one of the mountains which I will indicate to⁵ you.”

¹tn Heb “he”; the referent (God) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

²sn Take your son…Isaac. The instructions are very clear, but the details are deliberate. With every additional description the commandment becomes more challenging.

³sn There has been much debate over the location of Moriah; 2 Chr 3:1 suggests it may be the site where the temple was later built in Jerusalem.

⁴sn A whole burnt offering signified the complete surrender of the worshiper and complete acceptance by God. The demand for a human sacrifice was certainly radical and may have seemed to Abraham out of character for God. Abraham would have to obey without fully understanding what God was about.

⁵tn Heb “which I will say to.”
