INTRODUCTION TO GENESIS 22
In this chapter we have an account of an order given by God to Abraham to sacrifice his son, Genesis 22:1 ; of his readiness to obey the will of God, he immediately preparing everything for that purpose, Genesis 22:3 , of the order being reversed, and another sacrifice substituted in its room, which occasioned the giving a new name to the place where it was done, Genesis 22:11 ; upon which the promise of special blessings, of a numerous offspring, and of the seed in whom all nations should be blessed, is renewed, Genesis 22:15 ; after this Abraham returns to Beersheba, where he is informed of the increase of his brother Nahor's family, Genesis 22:19 .
