Brief introductionof the background…

Abraham

• “Father of multitudes”• the history of the establishment of the covenant between

Abraham and God• Sarah• 2 sons

Ishmael

• Already been given up(14)• Hagar, the handmaid’s son

Isaac

• One of the three patriarchs of the Israelites• Abraham100 & Sarah 90• With longevity

One day there was an Abraham who’s chosen by the godHe had an only son who’s called IsaacHe lived with him and loved him like the usually he didBut everything had changed because he’s tested by the god

The god said:”You should give me your son as a burnt, I’ll show you the direction how that works”Oh Abraham he didn’t know the truthWithout defiance, He turned:

”As the god has given the order, then I will follow him.I’ve bound my son on the altarAnd laid the wood under himAnd took the knife I bring!!”

All I need is to kill!!”

“No Abraham you can’t do that”“Who is say’in ”

“I’m Angel of the Lord who’s from the heavenI now know your fear to the GodSo bring your son back from heaven”

Oh godThen Abraham saw a ram outsideAnd killed it as the burntThen saw the angel coming back to give him the awards

“Thank you for your obedience and I’ll give you my blessYour offspring would be as numerous as the stars on the sky”

Once there was a manWho’s name was AbrahamHe’s gonna have a son a son a son a son and a son

I’m not sure this happiness would last foreverBut he and his Isaac at that time were living happily together
