Genesis 21:7

And she said, "Who would have said (spoken words from the heart – Hebr. malal) to Abraham that Sarah would nurse a child? For I have borne him a son in his old age."
[These events in 2000 BC are prophetic. Isaac's life is filled with shadows of the coming Messiah:
They are born in a miraculous way – Sarah was too old, Jesus through virgin birth (Matt. 1:18)
Their mothers ask how this will happen (Gen. 17:18; 18:12; Luke 1:34)
They are named before birth (Gen. 17:19; Matt. 1:21)
They are born at the predicted time (Gen. 21:1; Gal. 4:4)
They are native sons (Gen. 22:2; Joh. 3:16)
They are loved by their fathers (Gen. 22:2; Matt. 1:21)
They are born at the predicted time (Gen. 21:1; Gal. 4:4)
De är enfödda söner (Gen. 22: Gen. 22:2)
They go up Mount Moriah to be sacrificed (Gen. 22:2)
The servants do not accompany them (Gen. 22:5; John 13:36)
They will return (Gen. 22:5; John 3:35)
They go up Mount Moriah to be sacrificed (Gen. 22:2)
The servants do not accompany them (Gen. 22:5; John 13:36) Matt. 20:17-19)
They ride on a donkey before the sacrifice (Gen. 22:5; Matt. 21:1–11; Zech. 9:9)
They carry wood to the place of sacrifice (Gen. 22:6; John 19:17)
They submit to their father's will (Gen. 22:6, 9; Matt. 26:42)
They are in their thirties (Gen. 22:1–5; Luke 3:21)
They live after the sacrifice (Rev 1:18)
After the death and resurrection of their son, their father sends servants to find a bride for them (Gen. 24:14; Eph. 5:23–32; Rev 19:6–7)
They pray for their wife and future children (Gen. 25:21; John 1:12; 17:20)]
