Overview
This is a true story. It comes from Genesis Chapter 22 in your Bible.
In the Old Testament, we are reminded again and again through the stories that when God made a promise, He kept it. Even when the perfect Creation was ruined, God made a plan to save us from sin. He loved us enough to sacrifice something very special to Him.

More Information
In Genesis chapter 22 of the Bible, the story of Abraham and Isaac unfolds. God tests Abraham's faith by commanding him to take his only son, Isaac, to a mountain and offer him as a sacrifice. Without hesitation, Abraham obeys and sets out with Isaac. As they reach the mountain, Isaac asks his father about the sacrificial animal. Abraham, full of faith, tells Isaac that God will provide the offering.
As they reach the designated spot, Abraham builds an altar and prepares to sacrifice Isaac. Just as he raises the knife, an angel of the Lord calls out to Abraham, telling him not to harm the boy. The angel explains that Abraham has demonstrated his faith and obedience to God. Abraham looks up and sees a ram caught in a nearby thicket, provided by God as a substitute sacrifice.
Abraham sacrifices the ram in place of Isaac and names the place "The Lord Will Provide." God then reaffirms His covenant with Abraham, promising to bless him and make his descendants numerous. The story concludes with the assurance that Abraham's obedience and faithfulness have brought about God's blessing.
The story of Abraham and Isaac serves as a profound demonstration of faith and trust in God's plan. It reveals Abraham's willingness to offer his most precious possession and God's provision of an alternate sacrifice. This narrative highlights the importance of obedience and illustrates God's faithfulness in fulfilling His promises.
Customer Reviews
I love how this book points to the gospel, showing how the story of Abraham’s willingness to offer Isaac (and Isaac’s willingness to be offered), and God’s provision of a substitute lamb really points to how God gave His Son as a sacrifice in our place; yet how He won the victory over death and offers life to all who repent and believe in Him. It makes the Old Testament story relevant to us today as it connects the historical account to the gospel and the unchangeableness of God. I think that having children’s books that do this helps to establish that pattern as we read other Old Testament Bible stories and look for how they point to Christ.
Our third grade daughter really enjoyed reading this to her younger siblings. The reading level was simple for her to read aloud smoothly and kept the younger children’s interest. All of them were very engaged looking for the hidden pictures throughout.I’m glad Master Books is offering these books and think they will be a blessing to many!
We are truly enjoying this series of books that ties the events found in the Old Testament to our savior in a fun and engaging way. From the image search, the follow up questions to the dictionary at the end, you are sure to enjoy these books!
