Passage: Genesis 21:28 - Genesis 22:15

28 And he said, Seven ewe lambs shalt thou take at my hand, that they may be a witness unto me that I have digged this well.
29 And because they sware, both of them, wherefore he called that place Beer-sheba;
30 And thus they made a covenant at Beer-sheba;
31 Then Abimelech, and Phicol, the chief captain of his hosts, rose up, and they planted a grove in Beer-sheba, and called there on the name of the Lord; and they returned unto the land of the Philistines.
32 And Abraham worshiped the everlasting God, and sojourned in the land of the Philistines many days.

Genesis 22
Intro Abraham commanded to offer Isaac -- His willingness accepted -- Relieved by divine interposition -- Names of Nahor's children.
1 And it came to pass after these things, that God did try Abraham and said unto him, Abraham; and Abraham said, Behold, here am I.
2 And the Lord said, Take now thy son, thine only Isaac, whom thou lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering, upon one of the mountains of which I will tell thee.
3 And Abraham rose up early in the morning and saddled his ass, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son,
4 And clave the wood for the burnt offering; and rose up, and went unto the place of which God had told him.
5 Then on the third day, Abraham lifted up his eyes and saw the place afar off.
6 And Abraham said unto his young men, Abide you here with the ass, and I and the lad will go yonder and worship, and come to you again.
7 And Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering, and laid it upon his back; and he took the fire in his hand, and a knife, and Isaac his son; and they went both of them together.
8 And Isaac spake unto Abraham his father, and said, My father! And he said, Here am I, my son.
9 And he said, Behold the fire and the wood; but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?
10 And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering. So they went both of them together; and they came to the place of which God had told him.
11 And Abraham built an altar there, and laid the wood in order, and bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar, upon the wood.
12 And Abraham stretched forth his hand and took the knife to slay his son.
13 And the angel of the Lord called unto him out of heaven, and said, Abraham! Abraham! And Abraham said, Here am I.
14 And the angel said, Lay not thine hand upon the lad, neither do thou anything unto him;
15 For now I know that thou fearest God, seeing thou hast not withheld thy son, thine only Isaac from me.
