Genesis Chp 22 Verses 5, 7-9, 20-23

Gen 22:5 And AbrahamH85 saidH559 untoH413 his young men,H5288 AbideH3427 ye hereH6311 withH5973 the ass;H2543 and IH589 and the ladH5288 will goH1980 yonderH5704 H3541 and worship,H7812 and come againH7725 toH413 you.

Gen 22:7 And IsaacH3327 spakeH559 untoH413 AbrahamH85 his father,H1 and said,H559 My father:H1 and he said,H559 HereH2009 am I, my son.H1121 And he said,H559 BeholdH2009 the fireH784 and the wood:H6086 but whereH346 is the lambH7716 for a burnt offering?H5930

Gen 22:8 And AbrahamH85 said,H559 My son,H1121 GodH430 will provideH7200 himself a lambH7716 for a burnt offering:H5930 so they wentH1980 bothH8147 of them together.H3162

Gen 22:9 And they cameH935 toH413 the placeH4725 whichH834 GodH430 had toldH559 him of; and AbrahamH85 builtH1129 (H853) an altarH4196 there,H8033 and laid the wood in order,H6186 (H853) H6086 and boundH6123 (H853) IsaacH3327 his son,H1121 and laidH7760 him onH5921 the altarH4196 uponH4480 H4605 the wood.H6086

Gen 22:20 And it came to passH1961 afterH310 theseH428 things,H1697 that it was toldH5046 Abraham,H85 saying,H559 Behold,H2009 Milcah,H4435 sheH1931 hath alsoH1571 bornH3205 childrenH1121 unto thy brotherH251 Nahor;H5152

Gen 22:21 (H853) HuzH5780 his firstborn,H1060 and BuzH938 his brother,H251 and KemuelH7055 the fatherH1 of Aram,H758

Gen 22:22 And Chesed,H3777 and Hazo,H2375 and Pildash,H6394 and Jidlaph,H3044 and Bethuel.H1328

Gen 22:23 And BethuelH1328 begatH3205 (H853) Rebekah:H7259 theseH428 eightH8083 MilcahH4435 did bearH3205 to Nahor,H5152 Abraham'sH85 brother.H251

Told: nâgad, naw-gad', A primitive root; properly to front, that is, stand boldly out opposite; by implication (causatively), to manifest; figuratively to announce (always by word of mouth to one present); specifically to expose, predict, explain, praise: - bewray, X certainly, certify, declare (-ing), denounce, expound, X fully, messenger, plainly, profess, rehearse, report, shew (forth), speak, X surely, tell, utter.

Most of us might have noticed in verse 5, Abraham telling his servants, the child and I will worship and come back to you, Abraham must have thought, well if I sacrificed Isaac, God will provide another son to me, Isaac on the other hand, till the very end believed what his father told him, God will provide a sacrifice, he did not put up a struggle or resisted, we all know what happened after that.

But, what caught my attention was Gen 22:20-23, And it came to pass after these things, that it was told Abraham, saying, Behold, … Rebekah
