Bible: Genesis 22:10-14

22:10 Then Abraham reached out his hand, took the knife, and prepared to slaughter 1  his son. 22:11 But the Lord’s angel 2  called to him from heaven, “Abraham! Abraham!” “Here I am!” he answered. 22:12 “Do not harm the boy!” 3  the angel said. 4  “Do not do anything to him, for now I know 5  that you fear 6  God because you did not withhold your son, your only son, from me.”

22:13 Abraham looked up 7  and saw 8  behind him 9  a ram caught in the bushes by its horns. So he 10  went over and got the ram and offered it up as a burnt offering instead of his son. 22:14 And Abraham called the name of that place “The Lord provides.” 11  It is said to this day, 12  “In the mountain of the Lord provision will be made.” 13
