This sculpture portrays not only
the faithfulness of God to provide, but also the
mighty faith of Abraham. And not to be overlooked…the
obedience of Isaac. The fire bucket was carried by
Abraham. The firewood was carried by Isaac. No doubt
the altar was built by both.
Can you imagine the conversation they must have
had? Isaac knew if a sacrifice was to be made there
has to be a lamb involved. So during this
conversation, Abraham had to convey to Isaac that God
intended for him, Isaac to be the sacrifice; thus, the
obedience of Isaac.
Don’t miss the ram or lamb
caught in the bush behind Abraham pointed to by the
angel. This isn’t just any lamb, this is the lamb
provided by God that would be sacrificed in the place
of Isaac; THE LORD PROVIDED…ISAAC LIVED.
This is God foretelling what
would happen years later when He would provide yet
another Lamb, His only son. He was given up as the
sacrifice, once and for all. No more animal sacrifices
are needed; just believe by faith in the greatest gift
ever given to mankind. He was nailed to a cross but
three days later the tomb where he was buried was
empty even though it was being guarded twenty four
seven, just as He had predicted.
The fulfillment of God’s
foretelling is portrayed here by the cross which can
be found in front of the alter being formed by the
stones. Back
