SEV Biblia, Chapter 22:8
Y respondió Abraham: Dios proveerá para si cordero para el holocausto, hijo mío. E iban juntos.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Genesis 22:8
Verse 8. My son, God will provide himself a lamb] Here we find the same obedient unshaken faith for which this pattern of practical piety was ever remarkable. But we must not suppose that this was the language merely of faith and obedience; the patriarch spoke prophetically, and referred to that Lamb of God which HE had provided for himself, who in the fullness of time should take away the sin of the world, and of whom Isaac was a most expressive type. All the other lambs which had been offered from the foundation of the world had been such as MEN chose and MEN offered; but THIS was the Lamb which GOD had provided- emphatically, THE LAMB OF GOD.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 3-10 - Never was any gold tried in so hot a fire. Who but Abraham would no have argued with God? Such would have been the thought of a weak heart but Abraham knew that he had to do with a God, even Jehovah. Faith ha taught him not to argue, but to obey. He is sure that what God command is good; that what he promises cannot be broken. In matters of God whoever consults with flesh and blood, will never offer up his Isaac to God. The good patriarch rises early, and begins his sad journey. An now he travels three days, and Isaac still is in his sight! Misery is made worse when long continued. The expression, We will come again to you, shows that Abraham expected that Isaac, being raised from the dead, would return with him. It was a very affecting question tha Isaac asked him, as they were going together: "My father," said Isaac it was a melting word, which, one would think, should strike deeper in the heart of Abraham, than his knife could in the heart of Isaac. Ye he waits for his son's question. Then Abraham, where he meant not prophesies: "My son, God will provide a lamb for a burnt-offering." The Holy Spirit, by his mouth, seems to predict the Lamb of God, which he has provided, and which taketh away the sin of the world. Abraham lay the wood in order for his Isaac's funeral pile, and now tells him the amazing news: Isaac, thou art the lamb which God has provided! Abraham no doubt, comforting him with the same hopes with which he himself by faith was comforted. Yet it is necessary that the sacrifice be bound The great Sacrifice, which, in the fulness of time, was to be offere up, must be bound, and so must Isaac. This being done, Abraham take the knife, and stretches out his hand to give the fatal blow. Here in an act of faith and obedience, which deserves to be a spectacle to God angels, and men. God, by his providence, calls us to part with an Isaa sometimes, and we must do it with cheerful submission to his holy will 1Sa 3:18.
