Description

Abraham and Isaac gather heavy stones on a barren hillside, raising an altar in the wilderness under an open sky. The stacked rocks, desert ground, and simple robes place the scene within the solemn journey to the place God had shown Abraham. The image reflects Genesis 22, where Abraham prepares the altar and arranges the wood in obedience before the Lord provides the ram in place of Isaac. The visible labor of father and son emphasizes faith tested through costly obedience, while the unfinished stone altar points toward sacrifice, surrender, and God’s provision. This artwork serves well for teaching on Abraham’s faith, covenant trust, substitutionary sacrifice, and the foreshadowing of redemption.

Scriptures	Genesis 22:10-14 Genesis 22:6-9 Genesis 22:9 Hebrews 11:17-19 Genesis 22 10 Then Abraham reached out his hand and took the knife to slaughter his son. 11 But the angel of the LORD called to him from heaven and said, “Abraham, Abraham!” And he said, “Here am I.” 12 He said, “Do not lay your hand on the boy or do anything to him, for now I know that you fear God, seeing you have not withheld your son, your only son, from me.” 13 And Abraham lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, behind him was a ram, caught in a thicket by his horns. And Abraham went and took the ram and offered it up as a burnt offering instead of his son. 14 So Abraham called the name of that place, “The LORD will provide”; as it is said to this day, “On the mount of the LORD it shall be provided.” Genesis 22 6 And Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering and laid it on Isaac his son. And he took in his hand the fire and the knife. So they went both of them together. 7 And Isaac said to his father Abraham, “My father!” And he said, “Here am I, my son.” He said, “Behold, the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?” 8 Abraham said, “God will provide for himself the lamb for a burnt offering, my son.” So they went both of them together. 9 When they came to the place of which God had told him, Abraham built the altar there and laid the wood in order and bound Isaac his son and laid him on the altar, on top of the wood. Genesis 22 9 When they came to the place of which God had told him, Abraham built the altar there and laid the wood in order and bound Isaac his son and laid him on the altar, on top of the wood. Hebrews 11 17 By faith Abraham, when he was tested, offered up Isaac, and he who had received the promises was in the act of offering up his only son, 18 of whom it was said, “Through Isaac shall your offspring be named.” 19 He considered that God was able even to raise him from the dead, from which, figuratively speaking, he did receive him back.
