Philosophy - Abraham Paper
A brief synopsis of the story of Abraham and his son Isaac begins when Isaac was just a young boy. God spoke to Abraham and commanded him to take his son to Mount Moriah and offer him as a sacrifice. This was God’s test of Abraham’s faith. Abraham loved his son very much, but did not hesitate to follow God’s words for he was a man whose faith in God was very strong. Thus, one morning Abraham woke up and woke Isaac to start their three-day journey to Mount Moriah. From the time Isaac was very young Abraham has instilled his beliefs in God into Isaac, and when Abraham told him they were going make a sacrifice for God, Isaac did not hesitate to go. Then, when Abraham and his son reached the place where the sacrifice was to be performed, Isaac said to his father, “Father where is the lamb that is to be sacrificed? “ Abraham replied, “My son, God will provide the lamb.”
It is not known how eventually Abraham told his son that he was to be the sacrifice, but Isaac courageously laid on the sacrificial place ready to be sacrificed for God.
