  • They told us it was the ultimate test of faith...and Abraham passed the test. But what exactly was the test? And did Abraham do the right thing? Let's unpack it.

    What's really telling is the fact that the theme throughout the bible isn't necessarily having faith, but fearing god. It was never about faith. It's about fear.

      I asked a Christian friend one time " If you have to fear God, how can you love God? She responded, " Didn't you fear your parents growing up, yet love them at the same time?" I responded, " No, I didn't. I only got scared after my Mom would say she would take my dog to the pound if I got a bad grade on a math test. But, that is being scared, not fear. No different emotions "

      Even as a Christian, I agree with you. If someone today thinks they hear God telling them to kill someone, I would guess that they are delusional. If we think God is telling us something, we need to examine it through the lens of God's prior commandments. For example, one time I felt that God was telling me to love Catholics (and I have some beefs with my Catholic brothers and sisters). It was completely in line with Jesus' teaching on loving one's enemies, so I believe it was really from God.

The person I mentioned hearing voices in their heads could just point to the bible and say exactly the same thing.
      Your Catholic fictitious kin "brothers and sisters" would have been able to point to the bible on St. Bartholomew's Day massacre and said, God told us to do this.

      This is not an isolated incident. The Bible is filled with God commanding “his people“ to commit untold atrocities and genocide, specifically instructing that all women and babies be murdered but the virgins should be kept as plunder. This is why so many have concluded that Yahweh is a moral and ethical nightmare and therefore the religion collapses upon itself.

      @@ganymedkallisto5561 You don’t understand it correctly, it’s amazing if you look at it with the greater context in the Bible having to do with the crusifixion. Remember how isaac had to carry the wood he would be sacrificed on? Same with Jesus, He had to carry his cross. After everything was done God promised Abraham that He would bless all nations on earth through his offspring, which at that time wasn’t fulfilled. Also apparently God told Abraham He would provide the lamb, then God provided a Ramb instead of a lamb. He decided to provide that lamb later in time. Also after Abraham was finished there he named that place “the Lord will provide” and it says in the Bible that on that mountain it will be provided. That would be confusing without knowing what we know today. But apparently Jesus who is also known as “the Lamb of God” went and carried the wood He would be sacrificed on just like Isaac, and on the same mountain which it was predicted, and since He is the Lamb of God it also means the lamb God told Abraham He would provide was provided thousands of years later through Jesus, and through Jesus all nations on earth were blessed through His death and resurrection on that cross. And that’s how God redeemed man, and used Abraham’s and Isaac’s lives to tell a great story that happened thousands of years later.

      I'm sorry to hear you went through that too. But Isaac was a grown man around his twenties who could have overtaken his elderly father who is now about 120 years old. Abraham was 100 years old when he had Isaac, and Isaac is now an adult by the time Abraham was called to sacrifice Isaac. Therefore, Isaac willingly allowed Abraham to bound him for the sacrifice to the LORD. As I explained elsewhere, Abraham understood that God would have to resurrect Isaac because God promised that through Isaac, Abraham would have descendants that are more than the stars in the sky and sands on the shore. Isaac also understood that God could do all things, even resurrect from the dead, therefore he was a willing participant.

I also don't know if we can argue that Abraham was too old to restrain anyone unwilling at this point. I mean, for one he tells his son that they are going to slaughter a lamb, not a human being, so he's probably taken unawares, and also Abraham lived for another 50-60 years past this, as many humans of the Bible in this age did, so I don't think we can consider his aging process to be the same as a modern human. He'd probably be the equivalent of a leathery-skinned, tough as nails 50 year old of today.

      @@maul42 Firstly, Isaac was strong enough to carry the wood for his own sacrifice up the mountain himself. So he could have fought back. Secondly, he didn’t put up a fight, nor did he even utter a word. The entire Old Testament is prophetic of Jesus Christ. Jesus also carried the wood for His own sacrifice to the place that He would be sacrificed. Jesus also didn’t say a mumbling word before Pilate to defend Himself. Jesus was also the Son of the Father who willingly sacrificed Himself at His Father’s will. Jesus actually did resurrect, as both Abraham and Isaac were expecting God to resurrect Isaac in order to fulfill His promise of giving Isaac many descendants. At this point, Isaac didn’t have any children. Isaac was 60 when his sons were born.
      Being physically bound represents submission. Jesus didn’t have to be bound either. He said He had all power to call the angels to take Him down off the Cross at any time. Yet, He stayed on the Cross for you and me. And being an adult by now, Isaac would be fully aware of God’s promise to Abraham that Isaac will be having many descendants. They both came to the conclusion that God would have to raise up Isaac from the grave because they knew that God would never renege on His promise.

    The story of Abraham and Isaac has always bothered me. So has the commandment to respect parents, but nothing about respecting children. Especially after the realisation that my father would have done the same thing as Abraham to me,to his daughter.And yes, once again, the Bible completely ignores the fact that it was his mother who bore Isaac, gave him life and most likely raised him. This decision of Abraham's shows absolute disrespect for his wife. Like she is just an incubator! Also, the narratives of blind obedience are repeated again. The lack of freedom, toxicity, and misogyny in the Bible have bothered me since childhood.Thanks for the video and greetings from Ukraine, Kristi!❤

      @benjaminrichmond4227 You don’t understand it correctly, it’s amazing if you look at it with the greater context in the Bible having to do with the crusifixion. Remember how isaac had to carry the wood he would be sacrificed on? Same with Jesus, He had to carry his cross. After everything was done God promised Abraham that He would bless all nations on earth through his offspring, which at that time wasn’t fulfilled. Also apparently God told Abraham He would provide the lamb, then God provided a Ramb instead of a lamb. He decided to provide that lamb later in time. Also after Abraham was finished there he named that place “the Lord will provide” and it says in the Bible that on that mountain it will be provided. That would be confusing without knowing what we know today. But apparently Jesus who is also known as “the Lamb of God” went and carried the wood He would be sacrificed on just like Isaac, and on the same mountain which it was predicted, and since He is the Lamb of God it also means the lamb God told Abraham He would provide was provided thousands of years later through Jesus, and through Jesus all nations on earth were blessed through His death and resurrection on that cross. And that’s how God redeemed man, and used Abraham’s and Isaac’s lives to tell a great story that happened thousands of years later.

      You have to backup your comment with the necessary quotes. So let me do it: In the bible the biblical God accepted human sacrifices. And that can be proven with the bible. So let me add these verses here:
      Judges 11:29-40
      "29Now the Spirit of Yahweh came upon Jephthah, so that he passed through Gilead and Manasseh; then he passed through Mizpah of Gilead, and from Mizpah of Gilead he went on to the sons of Ammon. 30Then Jephthah made a vow to Yahweh and said, “If You will indeed give the sons of Ammon into my hand, 31then it shall be that whatever comes out of the doors of my house to meet me when I return in peace from the sons of Ammon, it shall be Yahweh’s, and I will offer it up as a burnt offering.” 32So Jephthah crossed over to the sons of Ammon to fight against them; and Yahweh gave them into his hand. 33And he struck them with a very great slaughter from Aroer to the entrance of Minnith, twenty cities, and as far as Abel-keramim. So the sons of Ammon were subdued before the sons of Israel.
      34Then Jephthah came to his house at Mizpah. And behold, his daughter was coming out to meet him with tambourines and with dancing. Now she was his one and only child; besides her he had no son or daughter. 35So it happened that when he saw her, he tore his clothes and said, “Alas, my daughter! You have brought me very low, and you are among those who trouble me. But I have opened my mouth to vow to Yahweh, and I cannot take it back.” 36So she said to him, “My father, you have opened your mouth to vow to Yahweh; do to me according to what has gone out from your mouth, since Yahweh has avenged you of your enemies, the sons of Ammon.” 37Then she said to her father, “Let this thing be done for me; let me alone two months, that I may go to the mountains and weep because of my virginity, I and my companions.” 38Then he said, “Go.” So he sent her away for two months; and she went with her companions and wept on the mountains because of her virginity. 39And it happened at the end of two months that she returned to her father, and he did to her according to the vow which he had made; and she did not know a man. Thus it became a custom in Israel, 40that the daughters of Israel went yearly to commemorate the daughter of Jephthah the Gileadite four days in the year."
      Here to obtain victory in battle Jephthah intends to sacrifice whoever comes to his doors. And that one was his own daughter. It is also important to note that before he took that vow that the spirit of the biblical God came to him before.
      ---
      There are also other parts of human sacrifices take a look at these quotes here:
      Exodus 22:29-30
      "29“You shall not delay the offering from the fullness of your harvest and the juice of your wine vat. The firstborn of your sons you shall give to Me. 30And you shall do the same with your oxen and with your sheep. It shall be with its mother seven days; on the eighth day you shall give it to Me."
      Here it states that the firstborn of the Israelites children shall be given to him. Afterwards he said the same about the firstborn animals too. What happens to the animals given to him? They were sacrificed. But that is not enough so let's get a bit more Information.
      Exodus 13:1-2
      "1Then Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 2“Sanctify to Me every firstborn, the first offspring of every womb among the sons of Israel, both of man and beast; it belongs to Me.”"
      Here we have another quote which states the same. Now let's take a look at what happens to the things devoted to him.
      Leviticus 27:28-29
      "28‘Nevertheless, anything which a man devotes to Yahweh out of all that he has, of man or animal or of the fields of his own possession, shall not be sold or redeemed. Anything devoted to destruction is most holy to Yahweh. 29No one who may have been devoted among men shall be ransomed; he shall surely be put to death."
      Anything devoted to the biblical God out of all he has, of MAN or ANIMAL shall not be sold or redeemed. It shall be surely put to death. That's human sacrifice. But is there another part in the bible which is a bit more specific? Yes, there is take a look at this:
      Ezekiel 20:25-26
      "25And I also gave them statutes that were not good and judgments by which they could not live; 26and I pronounced them unclean because of their gifts, in that they caused all their firstborn to pass through the fire so that I might make them desolate, in order that they might know that I am Yahweh.” ’"
      Here it is stated openly. All their firstborns were passed through the fire. That's a human sacrifice. The reason for this in context was for "punishment" but it does not change the fact that they were human sacrifices.
      ---
      Deuteronomy 13:12-16
      "12“If you hear in one of your cities, which Yahweh your God is giving you to live in, anyone saying that 13some vile men have gone out from among you and have driven the inhabitants of their city astray, saying, ‘Let us go and serve other gods’ (whom you have not known), 14then you shall inquire and search out and ask thoroughly. Behold, if it is true and the matter is confirmed, that this abomination has been done among you, 15you shall surely strike the inhabitants of that city with the edge of the sword, devoting it to destruction and all that is in it and its cattle with the edge of the sword. 16Then you shall gather all its spoil into the middle of its open square and burn the city and all its spoil with fire as a whole burnt offering to Yahweh your God; and it shall be a ruin forever. It shall never be rebuilt."
      Here you might say that the people getting killed in that city are not human sacrifices directly because you sacrifice their belongings. But you can say that this is an indirect human sacrifice to appease anger. These quotes also give you the possibility to attack people who don't believe in the abrahamic God.

      @cgcolin You don’t understand it correctly, it’s amazing if you look at it with the greater context in the Bible having to do with the crusifixion. Remember how isaac had to carry the wood he would be sacrificed on? Same with Jesus, He had to carry his cross. After everything was done God promised Abraham that He would bless all nations on earth through his offspring, which at that time wasn’t fulfilled. Also apparently God told Abraham He would provide the lamb, then God provided a Ramb instead of a lamb. He decided to provide that lamb later in time. Also after Abraham was finished there he named that place “the Lord will provide” and it says in the Bible that on that mountain it will be provided. That would be confusing without knowing what we know today. But apparently Jesus who is also known as “the Lamb of God” went and carried the wood He would be sacrificed on just like Isaac, and on the same mountain which it was predicted, and since He is the Lamb of God it also means the lamb God told Abraham He would provide was provided thousands of years later through Jesus, and through Jesus all nations on earth were blessed through His death and resurrection on that cross. And that’s how God redeemed man, and used Abraham’s and Isaac’s lives to tell a great story that happened thousands of years later.

      It's because Israelities feared that people would know the truth, because Ishmael was an ARAB, they did that out of jealousy.
      Actually, Ishmael was Abraham's oldest son. God didn't asked Abraham to kill his son, rather he was shown a dream which he shared with his son ishmael, and then his son said that this must be a command from your lord and you shall fulfill this dream, so when he (Abraham) laid his son for sacrifice, God at the last moment saved his son and replaced him with a sheep instead. So Abraham sacrificed the ram and from that day forward, it is a tradition among muslims to celebrate Eid ul Adha where they sacrifice animals, and distribute it's meat among their relatives, friends and specially poor needy people.
      (Quran 37:102-112):
      "Then when the boy (Ishmael) reached the age to work with him, Abraham said, “O my dear son! I have seen in a dream that I sacrifice you. So tell me what you think.” He replied, “O my dear father! Do as you are commanded. Allah willing, you will find me steadfast.”
      "Then when they submitted, and Abraham laid him on the side of his forehead ˹for sacrifice˺,"
      "We called out to him, “O Abraham!"
      "You have already fulfilled the vision.” Indeed, this is how We reward the good-doers."
      "Indeed, this was a clear trial"
      "And We ransomed him with a great sacrifice,"
      "and We left for him (a word of praise) among the later people,"
      “Peace be upon Abraham.”
      "This is how We reward those who are good in their deeds."
      "He was truly one of Our faithful servants."
      "We ˹later˺ gave him good news of Isaac-a prophet, and one of the righteous"
      The Bible states God commanded Abraham directly to sacrifice his son. The Qu’ran on the other hand states it was actually Abraham’s son (who was a boy at the time; estimated to be between 7-13 years old) that believed his father’s dream was a command from God.
      This sacrifice event is narrated in , in which the account of the event has suffered additions, alterations and distortions, as I will point out. Here Isaac is mentioned as the son to be sacrificed. Besides that, The chapter Chapter 22 of the Biblical book of Genesis also informs us that during the sacrifice event God referred to Abraham’s sacrificial son as “your only son” three times, but when was the time when Abraham has the "Only Son"?
      Take your son,” God said “your only son, Isaac, whom you love so much, and go to the land of Moriah. There on a mountain that I will show you, offer him as a sacrifice to me.”… But the angel of the Lord called to him from heaven: “Abraham, Abraham!” He answered, “Yes, here I am.” “Don’t hurt the boy or do anything to him,” he said. “Now I know that you have obedient reverence for God, because you have not kept back your only son from him.” … The angel of the Lord called to Abraham from heaven a second time: “I make a vow by my own name-the Lord is speaking-that I will richly bless you. Because you did this and did not keep back your only son from me … (Genesis 22:2; 22:11-12; 22:15-16)
      (Also as I have mentioned before, we don't support this story of the Bible that "God told Abraham to kill his son". But here I'm talking about the Bible).
      (Genesis 16:15-16):
      "Hagar bore Abram a son, and he named him Ishmael. Abram was eighty-six years old at the time."
      (Genesis 21:5):
      "Abraham was a hundred years old when Isaac was born."
      So Ishmael is older than Isaac by 14 years (100 minus 86 = 14). In other words, during the 14 year period before the birth of Isaac, Ishmael was “the only son” of Abraham. As Isaac was born after Ishmael, he can never have been “the only son” of Abraham. The phrase, “the only son,” applies exclusively to Ishmael. That’s why, the “son of sacrifice” description fits only Abraham`s elder son Ishmael, and not Isaac.
      (Genesis 25:12-18):
      "These are the descendants of Ishmael, Abraham’s son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah’s servant, bore for Abraham. These are the names of Ishmael’s sons, by their names and according to their birth order: Nebaioth, Ishmael’s oldest son; Kedar; Adbeel; Mibsam; Mishma; Dumah; Massa; Hadad; Tema; Jetur; Naphish; and Kedemah. These are Ishmael’s sons. These are their names by their villages and their settlements: twelve tribal leaders according to their tribes. Ishmael lived to the age of 137. He took his last breath and died, and was placed with his ancestors. He established camps from Havilah to Shur, which is near Egypt on the road to Assyria. He died among all of his brothers."
      (Genesis 17:20):
      "As for Ishmael, I have heard you. I will bless him and give him many descendants. And I will cause their numbers to grow greatly. He will be the father of twelve great leaders, and I will make him into a great nation."
      (Genesis 18:18-19):
      "Abraham will surely become a great and powerful nation, and all nations on earth will be blessed through him. For I have chosen him, so that he will direct his children and his household after him to keep the way of the Lord by doing what is right and just, so that the Lord will bring about for Abraham what he has promised him.”
      Ever thought what happened to the Abraham's son Ishmael and the promise of God for him?

    This was the pivotal story that really made me unpack and ultimately move away from my literalist understanding of Genesis. Along with all the things you point out, I got to the point of really examining the problem of "testing" (read - tempting) from a positive law basis. If you hold as true propositions that A. Righteousness or morality (rightness) lies in doing what God commands, obeying Him and B. God is good and cannot tempt man to do evil (James 1:13), then the testing presents an objective and undeniable contradiction, not a matter of interpretive nuance. God had previously commanded that Man may not take innocent life or indeed even shed innocent blood in the covenant of Noah. So in Abraham's case, he was being presented with the choice to either obey God's covenantal command or obey His contradictory personal command, either of which choice would necessitate a disobedience of the other command, which is precisely tempting to evil, i.e. there is no choice available that does not violate one of God's commands. Simply no way around it; it is a blatant contradiction.

      That why they always come here "saying they were Christian", or "Saying personal stuff about themselves" or "Saying something superficial" or "Makes stupid jokes" or "Laugh as stupids" (They do that because they have less secret things in their miserable life)... As be a Christian or a believer makes you have more to have more precious things in your live, and much worst to be a godless and soulless desperate (alone) idiot.
      But any way... LET'S STQART AND SHOW HOW MUCH NONE WILL MISS THOSE PEOPLE AN THEIR EMPTY CULT WHEN IT WILL GO BACK FROM THE NOTHING IT COMES FROM... ALSO BECAUSE IT IS WORTHLESS... (And without God you are more worthless then the believers... that is simple the true).
      Why godless alone people are obsessed with God?? and talk about him more then a believer? Well for many reason.... 1) About that BS called atheism there is not much things to say, no value, no sacred things and and it leads to nothing. 2 And then because they know they are so many godless alone people that will run to kiss their ass... 3 they do that so this cult can be alive, otherwise is destined to vanish, exactly from the nothing it comes... because is nothing but a cult that has nothing to offer to us and neither to the godless alone people who belonged to 4 And finally this cult will be vanished without those videos and those godless alone people will be just alone.
      And who said the opposite is a godless alone hypocrite.

      Let's hope in a better generation because this is so lost.
      You are into an empty cult that leads you nowhere... No respect for you, godless ass kisser.... You really left God to put BS and emptiness in your miserable Life. No Pity for you.

    Growing up in the 60s, I remember this story in Sunday School and never gave it a second thought. They told us how amazing it was that Abraham had so much faith and we should strive to be as strong in our own lives. We could have confidence that God would never actually make anyone go thru with such a dastardly act. It took decades to review this story from a similar angle that was presented here.
    Now, its horrific to think of the indoctrination that I fell for back as a kid and even more, how long it took to see the story for what it really is. Great point made about the fact that Isaacs feelings were never considered or mentioned in the text. I never had much empathy for others, growing up. Something I've really worked on, over the last 20 yrs. Now I believe I know the reason for my early lack of compassion. Stories like this and the way they were taught to us.

      I remember as a child working hard to see this story as something wonderful and redemptive, and shoving down other feelings about it, because otherwise then I wouldn't be "good". And, underneath that, I'm pretty sure the fear was that if I wasn't good, I'd be punished by this god who had the power of life and death over me. Not that I consciously realized that until much, much later, because I was shoving down those feelings as hard as I could.
      I hadn't thought of these stories as being something that tamps down compassion, but I see what you mean, now you've said it. Because if you have to shove down one feeling, you have to shove down other feelings, too.

    I have seen many Christian preachers, priests and apologists try to explain away why so many are breaking from the Religion/Faith. The reasons they give are mere trivial at best. There are some big elephants in the room they choose to ignore. This sordid tale of Abraham ready to murder his son to show how devoted he is to his god is one of those elephants. The idea of devotion without pause or question. Absolute devotion no matter what extremes are required to prove that obedience. One question is this. Why would God test Abraham's devotion. Would God not know how obedient Abraham was ? These are the issues that leading so many around the World to reject such blind devotion. And leave all religions behind.

Abraham avoided sin by showing his willingness to do what God commanded, but what God commanded was clearly immoral. And that's the basic problem.

Just in this opening I'd question her logic on how she should just be able to read the Bible and know everything it means or it isn't the word of God because not all people can access a history professor or a theologian. Well, no one could read at all when this was written, this was considered history to them and the theologians kept the stories on scrolls and read them like a classroom. Not everyone nowadays can read the same levels with the same comprehensive take away, see the SAT score distribution if you need an example.

    I was never taught to look at that story critically or from Isaac’s point of view. It was always about “obeying god” when I was taught this story. And now - this story is absolutely horrific. It doesn’t matter that Abraham doesn’t ACTUALLY kill Isaac in the end. The point is that he was going to kill him and that he had no issue with killing his own son. Ah yes - what a WONDERFUL story to get inspiration from.
    When I was younger, I was told that only people with the Holy Spirit inside of them could understand the Bible. Looking back, that was just a way for people in the church to disregard the thoughts/opinions of the Bible from anyone who wasn’t a Christian. That and a way to pull people in (ie. “You want to know the truth of the world? Well, you have to join our religion to be able to get it).
    As an atheist now, the Bible feels more and more horrible to me every day. I am very glad I have long since disregarded it as a source of morality.

Funny how these negatives are what characterizes God's instruction. There's no truth to the test, no transparency, no goodness. And yet, somehow, we're supposed to take away a life lesson from this story? Somehow, we're supposed to carry on believing that God is good?

I'm gay and Nigerian, and in my community, I encounter a lot of stories of Christian parents who turn their backs on their children when they're outed. There are even those who'd willfully endanger the lives of their gay children by calling the police on them. For a homophobic society like Nigeria's, that's the cruelest thing a parent can do to their gay kid. And yet, I know pastors and deacons who've done exactly that. And I've always found it horrible that these parents who claim to love God would throw their children out to the wolves like this.
    But then, how can I be bugged by that behaviour, when the god they worship instructed the Bible's first example of a "man of faith" to unalive his own son?

    When I was a toddler, my schizophrenic father tried to sacrifice me using this Bible passage as inspiration.
    He tried to put me in a laundromat dryer, but was stopped by my mom & whoever helped her.
    Taking these stories literally can lead to people with behavioural health issues to do stupid, often violent things.
    I have CPTSD & ADHD that was not diagnosed until I was 50 years old. Christianity almost completely destroyed my life, as I tried very hard to adhere to Jesus' ostensible commands. My family relationships, my physical & mental health, as well as my finances were devastated because I tried hard to be the epitome of a good disciple for decades. I sometimes fell into deep doubt & depression as a result of all of the lies I was led to believe.

    As a little kid i don't recall being shocked by that story in Sunday School, maybe because of reading about other violence in the Old Testament and fairytales about cruel stepmothers, parents trying to get rid of their kids, a kid-eating witch or giant, etc., in Grimm Brothers Fairytales, Hans Christian Andersen, and the Thousand and One Nights. My parents were hypocrites who had been baptized into the church and felt the need to appear religious, so we always attended weekly services and sometimes Sunday or Wednesday evenings, although at home they almost never talked about "God" or prayed. At that time i still thought they really had faith, so their silence on the subject was bewildering and made me wonder whether they didn't care if i and my sisters never got faith and were sent to eternal torture in hell. If so, it was only logical to speculate that they would think nothing of slitting our throats. 😱

    I love your videos! Thank you so much for making them in such an honest and clear way. I was not raised in a fundamentalist church, but I was born and raised in Brazil. Christianity here is really interwoven with our culture, custumes and morality, even though our country is supposed to be secular. I went to a catholic school and I was really upset and confused with these stories. Even as an 8yo I thought "If god knows everything, why does he need to test people's faith? And why does he test it in such cruel ways?" Not only I never got a straight answer but also was seen as problematic for questioning his teachings.

      You were wiser than I when young. And Christianity is in a lot of supposedly secular countries, including the US. The first Western European education was frrom monks and nuns. The whole religious story is embedded in that system -- and so in professions, laws, social customs.

    Kierkegaard was so obsessed with this story that it seemed to him that faith couldn't possibly make sense -- yet was not necessarily a bad thing to submit to -- which he describes as paradox but to me reads like a sort of insanity. He even points out that, in the moment Abraham chose to sacrifice his son and obey God, he was a murderer (in intent); yet he is not reviled as a murderer, but revered as a father of faith. Kierkegaard (or his pseudonymous authorsona for Fear & Trembling) saw this as something profound, but one can easily just agree that yeah probably we should not consider Abraham a righteous person if the only reason he wasn't a murderer is because God stopped him from doing something he had absolutely resolved himself to do.
    Walter Kaufman said of Kierkegaard: "If it really were axiomatic that God could never contravene our conscience and our reason - if we could be sure that he must share our moral judgments - would not God become superfluous as far as ethics is concerned? A mere redundancy? If God is really to make a moral difference in our lives, Kierkegaard insists, we must admit that he might go against our reason and our conscience, and that he should still be obeyed." Some might see this as edifying of faith, but to me it just shows the problem with it. God should be able to persuade you, and has no right to command you; only a being unworthy of the title God would command anything like this.

    Holy Moly, Kristi - you really chose the doozy of doozies to unpack in this video! I don't know if I've told you this in a previous comment, but my father was a preacher's son, and my father's father was so heavy handed with his religion that my dad and all his siblings totally rebelled against religion and became either full-blown atheists or agnostics, like my dad. So, the family environment that I was raised in was kind of like a post-deconstruction thing; above all, my parents wanted me to be free to choose my own religion according to the dictates of my own conscience. Anyway, I am kind of speculating or inferring here, but I guess that the reason I was never told the story of the binding of Isaac by my parents when I was a child was that my parents thought it would be too disturbing or traumatizing to me - and they were probably right, since I was, and still am, a quite sensitive individual. Here's proof positive that the Old Testament God is autocratic and abusive - and then he says, "I was just kidding!" And so, I learned about the whole binding of Isaac thing when I was an adult, and that's also about the time that I learned that this event is also celebrated and commemorated by Muslims as the holiday of Eid. Just think - "Islam" means "submission to God" and nothing shows submission to God more than a willingness to sacrifice your own and only son. But Islam, like Judaism and Christianity, is cut from the same cloth as an authoritarian and patriarchal religion.

Sins that the same god invented. Then people take up the cross, a horrible torture device, as a symbol of purity and hope. Pretty sick reasoning in my book.

      Allow me to share my thoughts with you - Due diligence I'm Jewish:
      Our POV on things is a modern way of thinking and differs a lot from the ancient one: child sacrefice was a common practice back then in these regions. The children were thought to be the father's possessions and so were the wives. Terrible, but still this was widely spread. The children knew this could happen. And God of Israel always wanted proof of one's faith through deeds... Paul taught you otherwise but the OT is clear - faith alone was not enough. It is crystal clear.
      ______________________________________________
      *The binding of Isaac*
      *Genesis 22*
      The OT says this: (Chabad)
      1 And it came to pass *after these things,* that God *tested* Abraham, and He said to him, "Abraham," and he said, "Here I am."
      What could be clearer than that?
      How do we know this was a test?
      What things happened in the previous chapter ? That is the meaning of 'after these things', to take us back a notch.
      *Ishmael and his mother were banished to the desert, thought to be dead by Abraham when all he had was God's word that Ishmael will be a nation*
      Now look at what God asks Abraham to do:
      2 And He said, "Please take your son, *your only one,* whom you love, yea, Isaac, and go away to the land of Moriah and bring him up there for a burnt offering on one of the mountains, of which I will tell you."
      *If G-D would have told Abraham that Ishmael is still very much among the living this wouldn't be a real test.*
      It is repeated here:
      12 And he said, "Do not stretch forth your hand to the lad, nor do the slightest thing to him, *for now I know that you are a God fearing man, and you did not withhold your son, your only one,* from Me."
      *It was just a test.*
      *It wasn't even a sin sacrefice.*
      *It is not 'a foreshadowing' of anything.*
      *God abhorres human sacrefice.*

      @@pazrahamim9220 Thank you for sharing, and allow me to retort why this "just a test" is a failure for both Abraham... and God as well.
      Abrahams failure is to put obedience above moralality and/or knowing God and his character.
      As you point out, it's understandable, he's just a human, he assumes his god is just like every other god out there.
      He's a man following the conventions and the lead of the people around him.
      And he is ready to sacrifice the life of his kid to appeace his god.
      Why would ANYONE worship a god who demand human sacrifices (or sacrifices at all, for that matter)?
      As a jew, you might be offended by what I'm about to say, but to breed a people from that genetic material is a setup for failure.
      But as for God himself, we can't give any justifications... he's supposedly all-knowing and unchanging, which would include the character and morality.
      You say he abbhore human sacrifices... yet he REWARD Abraham for being willing to perform it!
      He doesn't value a relationship where you both know each other, he doesn't value a moral character... he value, above all else, obedience at the expence of everything else, to the point he reward someone willing to do abbhorent things for him.
      Why would anyone worship such a character?
      The most, or even only, moral thing you can do with such a character is to search for some kind of a god-killer sword and put that rabid thing down!

    I'm not sure if I thought of this when I was a kid or if it came from my feminism studies back in the day: The story gives me the idea that in its culture, children were not valued as people; they were simply possessions. Abram "loved" Isaac because he was a gift from god to Abram that he thought he would never have, a son. When god said, "ok, now give it back," Abram thought "the lord giveth and the lord taketh away, so I'm being unselfish by not holding onto my gift." At no time was the child considered as anything other than a prized object. All this certainly doesn't make to story any better. Just different awfulness.

There was a significant early Christian split that believed that the God of the Old Testament was actually evil -- things like this pushed that movement. Human sacrifice is WRONG.

Still one of my favorite sermons/textual deconstructions to think about to this day.

      (I say especially Christians, but other religions aren't exempt, either. I definitely know other Jewish folks who will say, "Well, it might not be okay for humans, but it's okay if *God* does it" when I point out God as acting petty and vindictive in certain stories. I'm just *also* more likely to encounter other Jewish folks who are like, "Oh, yeah, totally. And while we're at it, let's point out instances in our texts when God out-and-out admitted that he made a mistake.")

      The god of the Tanakh is very much a "pagan" deity, not much different from Zeus or Athena and certainly hardly any different from any other ancient Near Eastern deity (he is obsessed with ritual purity and getting defiled, he likes the smell of burnt offerings, etc. etc.).

    I’ve heard sermons praising the willingness of Isaac and that we should be “willing sacrifices” for God.
    It’s also crazy how they tell you the stories and how you’re supposed to interpret and feel about them as well. It’s so controlled, they leave no room for free thought. I knew this, but I didn’t realize how insidious the control is until now.

      There's some longlasting myth that young chldren don' t feel things, because they're not mentally developed like an adult. But the reverse is true: young children feel deeply, and take in EVERYTHING as truth (brain in theta state does this). Being traumatized as a very young child is the kind of trauma that's really hard to get rid of. As a child, were you unaware of how your parents felt? Because children are sensitive and pick up these things.

    OMG I remember studying this at Bible school in a small in-depth session and the apologetics were off the wall. I bought it at the time, Now that I think about it, I love exploring fairy tales and myths, so now I know this is just one of those. I wish I had the courage and knowledge that I have now to speak out about how crazy this story is. Aside: Mind you, I only went to Bible school because it was in Australia and I was in Canada, and my parents were going to fund this 19 yr old to go, so, yeah, I can suck up some religion because the economy sucked and I had nothing else going on in a Vancouver winter, and Australia was sunny. It was a great experience, and solidified my atheism (also, a friend I still have from that 1980s experience is a pastor, so he obviously got something else out of it) .

      That why they always come here "saying they were Christian", or "Saying personal stuff about themselves" or "Saying something superficial" or "Makes stupid jokes" or "Laugh as stupids" (They do that because they have less secret things in their miserable life)... As be a Christian or a believer makes you have more to have more precious things in your live, and much worst to be a godless and soulless desperate (alone) idiot.
      But any way... LET'S STQART AND SHOW HOW MUCH NONE WILL MISS THOSE PEOPLE AN THEIR EMPTY CULT WHEN IT WILL GO BACK FROM THE NOTHING IT COMES FROM... ALSO BECAUSE IT IS WORTHLESS... (And without God you are more worthless then the believers... that is simple the true).
      Why godless alone people are obsessed with God?? and talk about him more then a believer? Well for many reason.... 1) About that BS called atheism there is not much things to say, no value, no sacred things and and it leads to nothing. 2 And then because they know they are so many godless alone people that will run to kiss their ass... 3 they do that so this cult can be alive, otherwise is destined to vanish, exactly from the nothing it comes... because is nothing but a cult that has nothing to offer to us and neither to the godless alone people who belonged to 4 And finally this cult will be vanished without those videos and those godless alone people will be just alone.
      And who said the opposite is a godless alone hypocrite.
      This cult called atheism is so empty... And those godless alone people really have nothing to offer to themselves.
      They have less sacred things then us... what an idiots they are for that too.
      Let's hope in a better generation because this is so lost.
      You are into an empty cult that leads you nowhere... No respect for you, godless ass kisser.... You really left God to put BS and emptiness in your miserable Life. No Pity for you. (God is always you do not know)..... We need to move to a better generation, and Hope godless alone people like you will not exist anymore in the future (you are worthless your cult called atheism).

      That there is not comfort on it???
      And that live and die as an alone godless person is not the best you can have?
      Just as have the idea that once you die you will be Nothing (and Nothing you are now, as you become what you think you will be once death) is not the best for your mental and psychological stability?
      Or have sacred things (as other people have) and you do not (such God) is so idiot that you are rething about everything and start to believe that Atheism is not but a BS, and a trap you are in???? They are patethic and worthless as their empty cult called atheims, which will not lead them anywhere, but a alone godless desperate life that they will never admit it. No respect for them. THAT IS JUST AN EMPTY CULT, AND WHEN IT AND THOSE GOLDESS WORTHELSS SOULESS PEOPLE WILL BE BACK TO THE NOTHING THEY COME FROM, NONE WILL COMPLAIN ABOUT THAT. NO RESPECT FOR THEM AND THEIR NO SENSE CULT (godless ass kisser, wirth no dignity)... THEY BRING EMTPTYNESS as their cult called atheism... Shame on them and their desperation....
      Anyway only a pathetic person can learn something from someone who explain you a thing obsessively that does not even believe... (with videos that are not helpful for their life...) WHAT AN EMPTY NOSENSE MODERN CULT YOU ARE TRAPPED IN, AND YOU ARE NOT AWARE OF........ Atheism is just empty BS, but those godless alone people are so sad to do not get... Let's hope in the new generation, this one is so lost, and none will cry when their worthelss atheism will be over.

      No one was harmed in this tale. The Ram that is slain is the Aries constellation. Aries sets headfirst and his horns are entangled in the thorn bush (winter). The Lamb slain is the same Aries at the spring equinox. It was the blood of this lamb that was placed on the door posts to mark those to be spared. One would certainly be insane to think the writer was talking about a real live animal. The Red Sea, that is passed - over dry shod, is the spring Aurora.

Abraham knew Yahweh was real, and didn't need any more faith than one needs of a mob boss. Other than that minor thing, all of your points were spot on.

    I have always had trouble reconciling the conflicting messages of the Bible. Especially the story of Abraham and Isaac compared to this verse -- Matthew 7:11 -- "If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask him." The thought that Abraham had the knife raised, ready to plunge it into his child Isaac, always horrified me. In my life, Christianity has been a dysfunctional construct that was more about obeying the "rules" than about loving other humans.

    Something that you might be missing from the story is after the binding of Isaac, only Abraham returned since they both parted ways never to see each other again.

      Why godless alone people are obsessed with God?? and talk about him more then a believer? Well for many reason.... 1) About that BS called atheism there is not much things to say, no value, no sacred things and and it leads to nothing. 2 And then because they know they are so many godless alone people that will run to kiss their ass... 3 they do that so this cult can be alive, otherwise is destined to vanish, exactly from the nothing it comes... because is nothing but a cult that has nothing to offer to us and neither to the godless alone people who belonged to 4 And finally this cult will be vanished without those videos and those godless alone people will be just alone.
      And who said the opposite is a godless alone hypocrite.
      This cult called atheism is so empty... And those godless alone people really have nothing to offer to themselves.
      They have less sacred things then us... what an idiots they are for that too.
      Let's hope in a better generation because this is so lost.
      You are into an empty cult that leads you nowhere... No respect for you, godless ass kisser.... You really left God to put BS and emptiness in your miserable Life. No Pity for you. (God is always you do not know)..... We need to move to a better generation, and Hope godless alone people like you will not exist anymore in the future (you are worthless your cult called atheism).
      What you realised that Atheism is just an empty cult?
      That Have nothing to offer to you, or to the humanity?
      It leads to nowhere?
      To the Obsession for God?
      For Christianity?
      That there is not comfort on it???
      And that live and die as an alone godless person is not the best you can have?
      Just as have the idea that once you die you will be Nothing (and Nothing you are now, as you become what you think you will be once death) is not the best for your mental and psychological stability?
      Or have sacred things (as other people have) and you do not (such God) is so idiot that you are rething about everything and start to believe that Atheism is not but a BS, and a trap you are in???? They are patethic and worthless as their empty cult called atheims, which will not lead them anywhere, but a alone godless desperate life that they will never admit it. No respect for them. THAT IS JUST AN EMPTY CULT, AND WHEN IT AND THOSE GOLDESS WORTHELSS SOULESS PEOPLE WILL BE BACK TO THE NOTHING THEY COME FROM, NONE WILL COMPLAIN ABOUT THAT. NO RESPECT FOR THEM AND THEIR NO SENSE CULT (godless ass kisser, wirth no dignity)... THEY BRING EMTPTYNESS as their cult called atheism... Shame on them and their desperation....
      Anyway only a pathetic person can learn something from someone who explain you a thing obsessively that does not even believe... (with videos that are not helpful for their life...) WHAT AN EMPTY NOSENSE MODERN CULT YOU ARE TRAPPED IN, AND YOU ARE NOT AWARE OF........ Atheism is just empty BS, but those godless alone people are so sad to do not get... Let's hope in the new generation, this one is so lost, and none will cry when their wortheless atheism will be over.
      Your wortheless empty Atheism is dragging you to the nothing it give to you (and to us) but you are too pathetic (as atheism) to get it. No rpesct for you godless ass kisser. No respect for you Godenier...
      You just worth as your atheims: 0.......

      LET'S BE CLEAR TO THOSE GODLESS PEOPLE... WE ARE JUST TIRED OF YOU TALKING ABOUT WHAT YOU DO NOT EVEN BELIEVE;as obsessed idiots.
      That why they always come here "saying they were Christian", or "Saying personal stuff about themselves" or "Saying something superficial" or "Makes stupid jokes" or "Laugh as stupids" (They do that because they have less secret things in their miserable life)... As be a Christian or a believer makes you have more to have more precious things in your live, and much worst to be a godless and soulless desperate (alone) idiot.
      But any way... LET'S STQART AND SHOW HOW MUCH NONE WILL MISS THOSE PEOPLE AN THEIR EMPTY CULT WHEN IT WILL GO BACK FROM THE NOTHING IT COMES FROM... ALSO BECAUSE IT IS WORTHLESS... (And without God you are more worthless then the believers... that is simple the true).

    I feel this would change the way the son feels about his father. I would never trust my father after that. I remember when my dad talked to me about that story, and I was shocked that he thought it was OK that he was going to sacrifice his son. I never could get over that.
