Sun, May 15 / Mount Moriah
The biblical notion of “test” (in Hebrew, nissah) refers to the idea of a judgment done to know what is in the heart of one being tested (Deut. 8:2; Gen. 22:12). At the same time, it shows the assurance of God’s grace on their behalf (Exod. 20:18–20).

Mon, May 16 / God Will Provide
There, at Mount Moriah, long before the Cross, the sacrificial ram “caught in a thicket by his horns” (Gen. 22:13) pointed to Jesus. He is the One that is “seen” here, as Abraham explains later, “in the mount where the Lord is seen” (Gen 22:14).

Tues, May 17 / The Death of Sarah
The mention of the death of Sarah after the story of the sacrifice of Isaac suggests that she might have been affected by this incident, which almost cost her son’s life. In some way, Sarah also was involved in the “test” with her husband.

Wed, May 18 / A Wife for Isaac
Just as Abraham wanted to acquire the land in order to bury his wife, because of God’s promise to his descendants that they would have this land, he now insists that Isaac not settle outside of the Promised Land either (Gen. 24:7).

Thurs, May 19 / A Wife for Abraham
The purpose of the genealogy after Abraham’s marriage with Keturah, who gave him six sons, versus his two other sons (Isaac and Ishmael), is perhaps to provide immediate evidence of God’s promise that Abraham would father many nations.
