1 И было, послј сихъ происшествій, что Богъ искушалъ Авраама, и сказалъ ему: Авраамъ! онъ отвјтствовалъ: вотъ я.

2 Богъ сказалъ: возми сына твоего, единственнаго твоего, котораго ты любишь, Исаака; и поди въ землю Моріа, и тамъ принеси его во всесожженіе, на одной изъ горъ, которую Я укажу тебј.

3 Авраамъ всталъ рано, осјдлалъ осла своего, взялъ съ собою двоихъ изъ рабовь своихъ, и Исаака, сына своего; накололъ дровъ для всесожженія и вставъ, пошелъ на мјсто, которое указалъ ему Богъ.

4 На третій день Авраамъ, возведши очи свои, увидјлъ мјсто издалека.

5 Тогда Авраамъ сказалъ рабамъ своимъ: останьтесь здјсь съ осломъ; а я и сынъ пойдемъ туда, и поклонясь возвратимся къ вамъ.

6 И взялъ Авраамъ дрова для всесожженія, и возложилъ на Исаака, сына своего; а самъ взялъ въ руки огонь и ножъ, и пошли оба вмјстј.

7 И началъ Исаакъ говорить Аврааму, отцу своему, и сказалъ: батюшка! Онъ отвјчалъ: что сынъ мой? Онъ сказалъ: вотъ огонь и дрова, гдј же агнецъ во всесожженіе?

8 Авраамъ сказалъ: Богъ усмотритъ для Себя агнца во всесожжеиіе, сынъ мой. И шли далје оба вмјстј.

9 И когда они пришли на мјсто, которое указалъ ему Богъ: тогда Авраамъ устроилъ тамъ жертвенникъ, разложилъ дрова, и, связавъ сына своего Исаака, положилъ его на жертвенникъ поверхъ дровъ.

10 И простеръ Авраамъ руку свою и взялъ ножъ, чтобы заколоть сына своего.

11 Тогда Ангелъ Іеговы воззвалъ къ нему съ небесъ, и сказалъ: Авраамъ! Авраамъ! Онъ сказалъ: вотъ я.

12 Ангелъ сказалъ: не поднимай руки твоей на отрока, и не дјлай надъ нимъ ничего; ибо теперь Я знаю, что боишься Бога, когда ты не пожалјлъ сына твоего, единственнаго твоего, для Меня.

13 И возвелъ Авраамъ очи свои и увидјлъ: и вотъ назади овенъ, запутавшійся въ чащј рогами своими. Авраамъ пошелъ, взялъ овна, и принесъ его во всесожженіе вмјсто сына своего.

14 И назвалъ Авраамъ имя мјсту тому: Іегова-Ире (Господъ усмотритъ). Посему и нынј говорится: на горј Іеговы усмотрится.

15 Потомъ вторично воззвалъ къ Аврааму Ангелъ Іеговы съ небесъ,

16 и сказалъ: Мною клянусь, говоритъ Іегова, что поелику ты сдјлалъ сіе дјло, и не пожалјлъ сына твоего, единственнаго твоего:

17 то Я благословляя благословлю тебя, и умножая умножу сјмя твое, какъ звјзды небесныя, и какъ песокъ на берегу моря; и наслјдуетъ сјмя твое города враговъ своихъ,

18 и благословятся въ сјмени твоемъ всј народы земные; за то, что ты послушался гласа Моего.

19 И возвратился Авраамъ къ рабамъ своимъ, и встали, и пошли вмјстј въ Беэр-Шаву; и жилъ Авраамъ въ Беэр-Шавј.

20 Послј сихъ происшествій Аврааму возвјстили и сказали: вотъ и Милка родила Нахору, брату твоему, сыновъ:

21 Уца, первенца его, Вуза, брата сему, Кемуила, отца Арамова,

22 Кеседа, Хазо, Пилдаша, Идлафа и Ваѕуила,

23 Отъ Ваѕуила родилась Ревекка. Восьмерыхъ сихъ родила Милка Нахору, брату Авраамову.

24 И наложница его, именемъ Реума, также родила Теваха, Гахама, Тахаша и Мааху.

2712. 'He dwelt in the wilderness of Paran' means the life of the spiritual man as regards good. This is clear from the meaning of 'dwelling' as being used in reference to good residing in truth, which is spiritual good, that is, good present with the spiritual man. The essential nature of that good is described by his dwelling in the wilderness of Paran, dealt with immediately below. That 'dwelling' is used in reference to good residing in truth, or to the affection for truth, is clear from many places in the Word where it is said of cities, which mean truths, that they will be without any inhabitant, by whom good is meant, 2268, 2449, 2451; for truths are inhabited by good, and truths devoid of good are like a city that has no one dwelling in it, as in Zephaniah,

I have laid their streets waste, so that none passes through; their cities are desolate, so that there is no one dwelling in them. Zephaniah 3:6.

[2] In Jeremiah,

Jehovah was leading us through the wilderness. No man passed through in that [land], and no one dwelt there. They have turned his land into a solitary place, his cities have been burned, so that none is dwelling there. Jeremiah 2:6, 15.

In the same prophet,

Every city has been forsaken, with no one dwelling in them. Jeremiah 4:29.

In the same prophet,

In the streets of Jerusalem that are desolate there is no human being, no inhabitant, no beast. Jeremiah 33:10.

'Streets' stands for truths, 2336, 'no human being' for no celestial good, 'no inhabitant' for no spiritual good, 'no beast' for no natural good. In the same prophet,

The cities of Moab will become a desolation, with no one dwelling in them. Jeremiah 48:9.

[3] With each particular expression in the Prophets there exists the marriage of truth and good. Consequently when 'a city' is said to be desolate, the phrase 'no one dwelling in it' is also added, the reason being that 'a city' means truths and 'one dwelling in it' good. Otherwise it would be superfluous to say 'no one dwelling in it' when it has been stated that the city is desolate. In a similar way certain terms occur consistently to mean things that belong to celestial good, others that belong to spiritual good, and others also that belong to truths, as in Isaiah,

Your seed will possess the nations, and they will dwell in the desolate cities. Isaiah 54:3

Here 'possessing' has reference to celestial good, 'dwelling in' to spiritual good. In the same prophet,

My chosen ones will possess it, and My servants will dwell there. Isaiah 65:9.

Here the meaning is similar.

[4] In David,

God will save Zion and will build the cities of Judah; and they will dwell there and possess it, and the seed of His servants will inherit it, and those loving His name will dwell in it. Psalms 69:35-36.

'Dwelling there' and at the same time 'possessing' has reference to celestial good, 'dwelling in' to spiritual good. In Isaiah,

He who says to Jerusalem, You will be dwelt in; and to the cities of Judah, You will be built. Isaiah 44:26.

Here 'dwelling in' has reference to the good of the spiritual Church, which is Jerusalem. To such an extent do the terms used in the Word have reference to their own goods and their own truths that simply from a knowledge of that usage of terms one may recognize what the subject is in general that is being dealt with.
