3
Felkele azért Ábrahám jó reggel, és megnyergelé az õ szamarát, és maga mellé vevé két szolgáját, és az õ fiát Izsákot, és fát hasogatott az égõ áldozathoz. Akkor felkele és elindula a helyre, melyet néki az Isten mondott vala.
1 Mózes 22:3
Arcana Coelestia #2827
2827. 'And have not withheld your son, your only son, from Me' means the union of the Human to the Divine which was effected by means of the final degree of temptation. This becomes clear from the meaning of 'your son', that is to say, Isaac, as the Divine Rational, dealt with already, or the Divine Human since this has its beginnings in the Rational, 2106, 2194, the expression 'only' being used because it was the only begotten, see 2773; and from the meaning of 'not withholding from Met as causing it to be united, namely to the Divine itself. As regards this union being effected by means of the final degree of temptation, this is evident from all that has gone before.
