Genesis 22:8 BSB

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Genesis 22:8

‘And Abraham said, “God will provide himself the lamb for the burnt offering, my son.” What a wealth of meaning is found in these words. ‘God will provide’. For Isaac they meant that his father believed that God would let him have a lamb from somewhere. But was he beginning to get a little uneasy? For Abraham it was a statement of belief that God would somehow make all things right. But for us it is far more significant. For we know that God did provide Himself as a Lamb for the offering, the... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Genesis 22:1-19

Genesis 22:1-Psalms : . Abraham Obeys the Divine Command to Sacrifice Isaac, and is Rewarded by the Sparing of his Son.— The main narrative ( Genesis 22:1-1 Chronicles :) is from E, and the story, which is a literary masterpiece, is told with a reticence more effective than any detailed exposition of the tragedy implicit in it could have been. The pathos of the son’ s question in Genesis 22:7, the father’ s answer in Genesis 22:8, is unsurpassable. And the racked feelings of the father, the... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Genesis 22:1-24

Genesis 12:1 to Genesis 25:18 . The Story of Abraham.— In this section the three main sources, J. E, P are present. Gunkel has given strong reasons for holding that J is here made up of two main sources, one connecting Abraham with Hebron, the other with Beersheba and the Negeb. The former associates Abraham with Lot. (For details, see ICC.) On the interpretation to be placed on the figures of Abraham and the patriarchs, see the Introduction. The interest, which has hitherto been diffused... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Genesis 22:8

God will provide himself a lamb; either, 1. Literally, though I know not how; for his wisdom and power are infinite: or, 2. Mystically, as Christ, whose type Isaac was, is called a Lamb. Thus Abraham prudently reveals the matter to him by degrees, not all at once. read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Genesis 22:1-8

Genesis 22:1-8 It is by trial that the character of a Christian is formed. Each part of his character, like every part of his armour, is put to the proof; and it is the proof that tests, after all, the strength both of resistance and defence and attack. I. The voice of God to Abraham was not heard in audible words; it was a voice in the soul constantly directing him to duty and self-sacrifice. The voice told him, as he thought, I do not for a moment say as God meant, that his duty was to... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Genesis 22:1-19

Genesis 22:1-19 . Abraham is the first, if not the greatest, of the heroes of the Hebrew people. A man dazed by life's illusions, a dreamer of strange dreams and a seer of impossible visions, he has yet a firm hold of solid fact, and is ready, in the spirit of the Pilgrim Fathers, to cross the Euphrates and travel to Damascus, that he may separate himself from idolatry. From his many days of trial, take those in which he needs the strength of God the most, and see whether he has it, what he... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Genesis 22:7-8

Genesis 22:7-8 Abraham was not picked out as a model of excellence. He was apt to fear, apt to lie. What he was apart from his Teacher we see in his journey to Egypt: a very poor, paltry earthworm indeed, one not to be despised by us, because we are earthworms also, but assuredly worthy of no reverence which was his by birth or which became his merely in virtue of his call. What he was when he was walking in the light, when that transfigured him from an earthworm into a man, his after history... read more

DISCOURSE: 34ISAAC A TYPE OF CHRISTGenesis 22:6-10. 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. 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? And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt-offering. So they went both of... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Genesis 22:1-24

Chapter 22Now it came to pass after these things, that God did tempt Abraham ( Genesis 22:1 ),Or tested Abraham or proved Abraham. "Let no man, when he is tempted, say that he is tempted of God: because God never tempts a man to do evil" ( James 1:13 ). Our enticements to evil come from our own flesh, the lust of our own flesh. God doesn't tempt you to do evil things. God does test us. Jesus went through great testings and He learned obedience through the things that He suffered.We as... read more
