Genesis 22:10-12 ▼

10 Then Abraham reached out and took the knife to slaughter his son.

11 But the angel of the LORD called to him from heaven, “Abraham, Abraham!” “Here I am,” he answered.

12 “Do not lay your hand on the boy,” said the angel. “Do not do the least thing to him. For now I know that you fear God, since you did not withhold from me your son, your only one.”
