- Actually, God said to Abraham "Take now your son, your only son, whom you
- love, Isaac, and go to the land of Moriah; and offer him there as a burnt
- offering on one of the mountains of which I tell you." (re: Gen 22:2)
-
- What did Abraham do?
-
- "Then they came to the place of which God had told him; and Abraham built the
- altar there, and arranged the wood, and bound his son Isaac, and laid him on
- the altar on top of the wood. And Abraham stretched out his hand, and took
- the knife to slay his son." (Gen 22:9-10)
-
- Which of God's commandments do you propose are in conflict here?
