Genesis 21 - 22
GenesisSteve Gregg
In Genesis 21-22, the faith and obedience of Abraham and Sarah are put to the test. Sarah gives birth to Isaac in her old age, which results in the departure of Hagar and Ishmael. Abraham is then commanded by God to offer Isaac as a burnt offering on Mount Moriah, a test of faith which Abraham ultimately passes. These stories illustrate the strong faith and obedience of Abraham and Sarah, and serve as an example of prioritizing one's relationship with God over earthly attachments.
