Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Genesis 22:1-2

"And it came to pass after these things, that God did prove Abraham, and said unto him, Abraham; and he said, Here am I. And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son, whom thou lovest, even Isaac, 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.""God did prove Abraham ..." This was the only thing that God ever commanded Abraham to do calling it a "test" or "proving" of his faith in connection with it. None of... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Genesis 22:1

Genesis 22:1. God did tempt Abraham, &c.— Did try, or prove him, for the further display of his faith and obedience; which is the only sense in which God can be supposed to tempt his creatures. The apostle to the Hebrews gives us a good comment on this passage, ch. Genesis 11:17, &c. assuring us, that Abraham readily obeyed the Divine command, as having an undoubted faith, that God was able to raise his son Isaac again, even from the dead; that son, who was so miraculously born, as it... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Genesis 22:1

1. God did tempt Abraham—not incite to sin (James 1:13), but try, prove—give occasion for the development of his faith (James 1:13- :). and he said, . . . Here I am—ready at a moment's warning for God's service. read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Genesis 22:1-8

This incident took place some time after the events recorded in the chapters immediately preceding this one, evidently several years later.God’s revelation to Abraham (His eighth recorded in Scripture) came to test Abraham’s faith (i.e., to prove its character and strength; cf. James 2:21-23)."Life is a succession of tests, for character is only possible through discipline." [Note: Thomas, p. 195.] God was testing Abraham’s love for Himself as well as his faith (Genesis 22:2). Such testing... read more

14. The sacrifice of Isaac 22:1-19In obedience to God’s command Abraham took his promised heir to Moriah to sacrifice him to the Lord. Because Abraham was willing to slay his uniquely begotten son God restrained him from killing Isaac and promised to bless him further for his obedience. Abraham memorialized the place as "the Lord will provide."God called on Abraham to make five great sacrifices: his native country, his extended family, his nephew Lot, his son Ishmael, and his son Isaac. Each... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Genesis 22:1-24

The Offering of Isaac on Mount MoriahIn this narrative we have the crowning proof that Abraham was willing to resign all that was dearest to him at the bidding of God, even that son on whose life depended the fulfilment of the divine promises. But his trial must be also regarded as the occasion of bringing about an advance in the moral standard of the men of his time, which was gradually to become universal. In Abraham’s day the sacrifice of the firstborn was a common practice among the Semitic... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Genesis 22:1

XXII.THE OFFERING OF ISAAC ON MOUNT MORIAH.(1) God did tempt Abraham.—Heb., proved him, put his faith and obedience to the proof. For twenty-five years the patriarch had wandered in Palestine, and seen the fulfilment of the promise perpetually deferred, and yet his faith failed not. At length the long wished for heir is born, and, excepting the grievous pain of parting with Ishmael, all went well with him, and seemed to presage a calm and happy old age. He was at peace with his neighbours, had... read more

Expositor's Dictionary of Texts - Genesis 22:1-24

The Temptation of Abraham Genesis 22:0 This narrative has been an awful difficulty to many. Some, who have not quite cast the Bible away as God's Word, yet go near to saying that we cannot see God's Word in this passage. It is said by some that the whole incident must be explained by ideas in Abraham's mind, suggested by the practice of human sacrifices around him. Abraham thought on these till the feeling arose that his God also demanded nothing short of the life of his best beloved... read more

ISHMAEL AND ISAACGenesis 21:1-34; Genesis 22:1-24Abraham had two sons, the one by a bondmaid, the other by a freewoman. Which things are an allegory.- Galatians 4:22."Abraham stretched forth his hand, and took the knife to slay his son." Genesis 22:10IN the birth of Isaac, Abraham at length sees the long-delayed fulfilment of the promise. But his trials are by no means over. He has himself introduced into his family the seeds of discord and disturbance, and speedily the fruit is borne. Ishmael,... read more
