"After these things God tested Abraham, and said to him,
"Abraham!" And he said, "Here am I." He said, "Take your son, your only son
Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a
burnt offering upon one of the mountains of which I shall tell you." So
Abraham rose early in the morning, and took two of his
young men with him, and his son Isaac; and he cut the wood for the burnt
offering, and arose and went to the place of which God had told him."

of his reign." (2 Chronicles 3:1-2 RSV) |
