Genesis 22:4

Context

22:4 On the third day Abraham caught sight of 1  the place in the distance.

Genesis 22:13

Context

22:13 Abraham looked up 2  and saw 3  behind him 4  a ram caught in the bushes by its horns. So he 5  went over and got the ram and offered it up as a burnt offering instead of his son.

1 tn Heb “lifted up his eyes and saw.”

2 tn Heb “lifted his eyes.”

3 tn Heb “and saw, and look.” The particle הִנֵּה (hinneh, “look”) draws attention to what Abraham saw and invites the audience to view the scene through his eyes.

4 tc The translation follows the reading of the MT; a number of Hebrew mss, the LXX, Syriac, and Samaritan Pentateuch read “one” (אֶחָד, ’ekhad) instead of “behind him” (אַחַר, ’akhar).

5 tn Heb “Abraham”; the proper name has been replaced by the pronoun (“he”) in the translation for stylistic reasons.
