Dumating sila sa lugar na sinabi sa kanya ng Diyos, at nagtayo roon si Abraham ng altar at isinaayos ang kahoy. Iginapos niya si Isaac na kanyang anak at inilagay siya sa ibabaw ng altar, sa ibabaw ng kahoy.
On the Unchangeableness of God
If thou wilt know, my mind, what it is to beget not for thyself, learn the lesson from the perfect Abraham. He brings to God the dearly loved, the only trueborn offspring of the soul, that clearest image of self-learned wisdom, named Isaac, and without a murmur renders, as in duty bound, this fitting thank-offering. But first he bound, as the law tells us, the feet of the new strange victim (Gen. 22:9), either because having once received God’s inspiration he judged it right to tread no more on aught that was mortal, or it may be that he was taught to see how changeable and inconstant was creation, through his knowledge of the unwavering steadfastness that belongs to the Existent; for in this we are told he had put his trust (Gen. 15:6).
