Gen. 22:4      Gen. 22:6

Genesis 22:5

Abraham said to his young men (servants): "Wait here with the donkey, I and the young man (Hebr. naar) will go on, we will worship (literally: "bow down, bend in reverence" – Hebr. shachah) and come back to you."
[Isaac is not a young boy but an adult man. The Hebrew word naar is used for teenagers and young men. The same word is used both for Abraham's servants, who were young men, and for his son Isaac, see verses 3, 5, 12, 19. He could easily have resisted and overpowered his old father, but willingly agrees to be bound. Isaac's actions are a foreshadowing of Jesus' sacrifice on Calvary. Isaac himself carries the wood for the sacrifice, just as Jesus himself carries the crossbeam. The location is also the same, Mount Moriah is the hill in Jerusalem where the temple stood at the southern end of the ridge that stretches north, which makes it possible that Jesus was actually crucified in the exact same place where Abraham built the altar. Based on Sarah's age, we can see that Isaac was no older than 37. She died at the age of 127, see Gen. 23:1, and gave birth to Isaac when she was 90, see Gen. 17:17; 21:1–5. The words "many days" in Gen. 21:34 and "after this" in Gen. 22:1 also suggest that the event did not take place when he was a child, but when he was an adult. It would not be unbelievable if Isaac was 33 years old, which in that case coincides exactly with the age of Jesus.]
