Abraham is a type of God, the Father, and Isaac is a type of Jesus, The Son of God.  The offering of Isaac by Abraham is a type of God offering Jesus for the world.  The place that Abraham was to offer Isaac would be the same place that God would offer Jesus on the Cross.  God did not let Abraham kill Isaac for the sacrifice, but provided a Ram instead.  Now if God would have provided a Lamb instead of Isaac, then the sacrifice would have been completed.  Since a Ram was provided instead of a Lamb, the sacrifice was postponed until the Lamb of God would be offered at the same place.  This is why John the Baptist when he saw Jesus said, "Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world."  John 1:29


1. When God announced the birth of Isaac, did God tell Abraham what the child's

name would be?

2. When God announced the birth of Jesus, did God tell Mary what the child's

name would be?    

(Luke 1:30-32 And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God.

31  And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS.

32  He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David.)

3. The birth of Isaac was contray to nature, because Sarah was  and it

     to be with Sarah after the manner of women.  

(Genesis 18:11 Now Abraham and Sarah were old and well stricken in age; and it ceased to be with Sarah after the manner of women.)

4. The birth of Jesus was contray to nature, because Mary was a .

     (Luke 1:27 To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary. 34 Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?)

5. Abraham was to offer his  (Genesis 22:2 And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son 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 which I will tell thee of.)  (Hebrews 11:17 By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son,)

son, Isaac.

6. God was to offer his    Son, Jesus.  

(John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.)

7. Abraham was to offer Isaac on Mt. .  (Genesis 22:2 And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son 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 which I will tell thee of.)

8. The Temple in Jerusalem was built on Mt. .  

(2 Chronicles 3:1 Then Solomon began to build the house of the LORD at Jerusalem in mount Moriah, where the LORD appeared unto David his father, in the place that David had prepared in the threshingfloor of Ornan the Jebusite.)

9. God would offer Jesus at a place called  (Matthew 27:33 And when they were come unto a place called Golgotha, that is to say, a place of a skull,),

    which is also called Calvary, located on Mt. Moriah.

10. Isaac carried the  of the burnt offering.  

(Genesis 22:6 And Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering, and laid it upon Isaac his son; and he took the fire in his hand, and a knife; and they went both of them together.)

11. Jesus carried his .  

(John 19:17 And he bearing his cross went forth into a place called the place of a skull, which is called in the Hebrew Golgotha:)

12. Isaac could not die on the altar, because God would provide

      as a  for an offering.  

(Genesis 22:8 And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so they went both of them together.)

13. Jesus would die on the cross, because He is the  of God, which taketh

      away the sin of the world.  (John 1:29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.)
