1 At nangyari pagkatapos ng mga bagay na ito, na sinubok ng Dios si Abraham, at sa kaniya'y sinabi, Abraham; at sinabi niya, Narito ako.

2 At kaniyang sinabi, Kunin mo ngayon ang iyong anak, ang iyong bugtong na anak na si Isaac, na iyong minamahal at pumaroon ka sa lupain ng Moria; at ihain mo siya roong handog na susunugin sa ibabaw ng isa sa mga bundok na aking sasabihin sa iyo.

3 At si Abraham ay bumangong maaga, at inihanda ang kaniyang asno, at ipinagsama ang dalawa sa kaniyang mga alila, at si Isaac na kaniyang anak: at nagsibak ng kahoy para sa haing susunugin, at bumangon at naparoon sa dakong sinabi sa kaniya ng Dios.

4 Nang ikatlong araw ay itiningin ni Abraham ang kaniyang mga mata at natanaw niya ang dakong yaon sa malayo.

5 At sinabi ni Abraham sa kaniyang mga alila, Maghintay kayo rito sangpu ng asno, at ako at ang bata ay paroroon doon; at kami ay sasamba, at pagbabalikan namin kayo.

6 At kinuha ni Abraham ang kahoy ng handog na susunugin, at ipinasan kay Isaac na kaniyang anak; at dinala sa kaniyang kamay ang apoy at ang sundang; at sila'y kapuwa yumaong magkasama.

7 At nagsalita si Isaac kay Abraham na kaniyang ama, na sinabi, Ama ko: at kaniyang sinabi, Narito ako, anak ko. At sinabi, Narito, ang apoy at ang kahoy, nguni't saan naroon ang korderong pinakahandog na susunugin?

8 At sinabi ni Abraham, Dios ang maghahanda ng korderong pinakahandog na susunugin, anak ko: ano pa't sila'y kapuwa yumaong magkasama.

9 At sila'y dumating sa dakong sa kaniya'y sinabi ng Dios; at nagtayo si Abraham doon ng isang dambana, at inayos ang kahoy, at tinalian si Isaac na kaniyang anak at inilagay sa ibabaw ng dambana, sa ibabaw ng kahoy.

10 At iniunat ni Abraham ang kaniyang kamay at hinawakan ang sundang upang patayin ang kaniyang anak.

11 At tinawag siya ng anghel ng Panginoon mula sa langit, at sinabi, Abraham, Abraham: at kaniyang sinabi, Narito ako.

12 At sa kaniya'y sinabi, Huwag mong buhatin ang iyong kamay sa bata, o gawan man siya ng anoman: sapagka't talastas ko ngayon, na ikaw ay natatakot sa Dios, sa paraang hindi mo itinanggi sa akin ang iyong anak, ang iyong bugtong na anak.

13 At itiningin ni Abraham ang kaniyang mga mata, at nagmalas, at narito, ang isang tupang lalake, sa dakong likuran niya na huli sa dawag sa kaniyang mga sungay: at pumaroon si Abraham, at kinuha ang tupa, at siyang inihandog na handog na susunugin na inihalili sa kaniyang anak.

14 At pinanganlan ni Abraham ang dakong yaon, ng Jehova-jireh: gaya ng kasabihan hanggang sa araw na ito: Sa bundok ng Panginoon ay mahahanda.

15 At tinawag ng anghel ng Panginoon si Abraham na ikalawa mula sa langit.

16 At sinabi, Sa aking sarili ay sumumpa ako, anang Panginoon, sapagka't ginawa mo ito, at hindi mo itinanggi sa akin ang iyong anak, ang iyong bugtong na anak;

17 Na sa pagpapala ay pagpapalain kita, at sa pagpaparami ay pararamihin ko ang iyong binhi, na gaya ng mga bituin sa langit, at gaya ng mga buhangin sa baybayin ng dagat; at kakamtin ng iyong binhi ang pintuang-bayan ng kaniyang mga kaaway;

18 At pagpapalain sa iyong binhi ang lahat ng bansa sa lupa; sapagka't sinunod mo ang aking tinig.

19 Sa gayo'y nagbalik si Abraham sa kaniyang mga alila, at nagsitindig at samasamang nagsiparoon sa Beerseba; at tumahan si Abraham sa Beerseba.

20 At nangyari, pagkatapos ng mga bagay na ito, na ibinalita kay Abraham na sinasabi, Narito, si Milca rin naman ay nagkaroon ng mga anak kay Nahor na iyong kapatid.

21 Si Huz ang kaniyang panganay, at si Buz na kaniyang kapatid, at si Kemuel na ama ni Aram;

22 Si Chesed din naman, at si Hazo, at si Pildas, at si Jidlaph, at si Bethuel.

23 At naging anak ni Bethuel si Rebeca: ang walong ito ay naging anak ni Milca kay Nachor na kapatid ni Abraham.

24 At ipinanganak din naman ng kaniyang babae na tinatawag na Reuma, si Teba, at si Gaham, at si Taas at si Maacha.

2836. 'Abraham called the name of that place' means the nature of their state, that is to say, the state of those who are spiritual, which was brought about by the Lord's Divine Human. This is clear from the meaning of 'calling the name' as knowing the nature of a person or thing, dealt with in 144, 145, 1754, 1896, 2009; from the meaning of 'place' as state, dealt with in 1273-1277, 1376-1381, 2625; and from the representation of 'Abraham' as the Lord as to the Divine Human, dealt with in 2833. From this it is evident that 'Abraham called the name of that place' means the nature of the state of those who are spiritual which was brought about by the Lord's Divine Human. It has been shown already that spiritual people are saved through the Lord's Coming into the world, in 2661, 2716, and that they receive enlightenment from His Divine Human, in 2716. Now in the present verse there follows the teaching that provision was made for those people to be saved in whom faith flowing from charity, that is, in whom charity, is present. This is the state meant by the words of this verse.

Arcana Coelestia#2661

2661. 'Because of his son' means for the reason that He delighted in it, that is, in the first rational. This is clear from the meaning of 'son', that is to say, the son of the servant-girl, as the merely human or first rational, dealt with already. The reason for the grief is not actually mentioned here but it is nevertheless evident from what follows. Love is plainly the reason for that grief, for it is said [that Abraham was distressed] 'because of his son', and this son is the subject in verses 13-21 which follow. But so that it may be known why this grief existed, that is, why it is said that 'the matter was deeply distressing to Abraham because of his son', let the following few comments serve by way of illustration.

[2] The Lord did not come into the world to save those who are celestial, but to save those who are spiritual. The Most Ancient Church, which was called Man, was celestial, and if this Church had remained uncorrupted there would have been no need for the Lord to be born a human being. But as soon as it began to decline the Lord foresaw that the celestial Church would cease to exist altogether in the world, and therefore a prophecy was given there and then about the Lord's Coming into the world, Genesis 3:15. After the era of that Church there was no longer a celestial Church but a spiritual Church. The Ancient Church, which came after the Flood, was this spiritual Church, referred to many times in Volume One. This Church, or the people who belonged to the spiritual Church, could not have been saved unless the Lord had come into the world. This is what the Lord's words in Matthew are used to mean,

Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance. Matthew 9:12-13.

And the following in John are used with the same meaning,

And other sheep I have which are not of this fold; I must bring them also, and they will hear My voice, and there will be one flock and one shepherd. John 10:16.

And the same is also meant in the parable about the hundred sheep, in Matthew 18:11-13.

[3] Now seeing that 'Isaac', representing the Lord's Divine Rational, also means those that are celestial, who are called 'heirs', while 'Ishmael', representing the Lord's merely human rational, also means those that are spiritual, who are referred to as 'sons' - as may also be evident from what has been stated above in 2658 - the words used in the present verse therefore mean that because of His Divine Love the Lord suffered grief. This is also the meaning of what follows in verses 13-21, where Hagar's son and she his mother represent the spiritual Church, and where the subject is the state of that Church, that is, of those who are members of that Church, 2612. Any further declaration regarding these arcana is not as yet possible. All that can be stated here is that with the Lord when in the world all states of the Church were represented, and also the way in which those who belonged to it were to be saved through Him. Consequently the same states of the Church are also meant by those same names.
