2806. Verse 8. And Abraham said, God will see for Himself the lamb for a burnt-offering, my son: and they went both of them together. “Abraham said, God will see for Himself the lamb for a burnt-offering, my son,” signifies the reply, that the Divine Human will provide those who are to be sanctified; “and they went both of them together,” signifies unition still closer as far as possible.
