| Hebrews 11:17 | *By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered Isaac; and he who had received the promises, offered up his only begotten son: Genesis 22:1.; Ecclesiasticus 44:21. | By faith Abraham....offered up Isaac; that is was ready and willing to do it, when Isaac was his only son, by whom God had promised to give him a numberless progeny, but by faith he considered that God, who had miraculously given him a son, could if he pleased raise him to life again.
