22:15–19 This section marks a significant development as God swears for the first time in the Bible, guaranteeing that Abraham’s descendants will bless the world. The narrator also emphatically reiterates God’s promise to Abraham. Abraham’s great faith has led to great obedience and great blessing. The fact that the text only mentions Abraham’s return to his servants does not imply that Isaac has departed. This test has been mainly about Abraham.
